Do you know how deep my well will have to go?
|
 |
Not exactly. But while we can't guarantee an exact depth, by looking at other wells in the area, we can get a fairly good idea of the ground structure and water table in the area, and how deep your well and casing will probably have to go.

How long does it take to drill a new well?
|
 |
It is usually a two- to three-day process. The actual drilling usually only takes one day, or sometimes two days; but then the service crew will come out a following day to hook up or install your pump, tank and water line.

When should I call to let you know I am ready for my well?
|
 |
If you know you want to go with Weber's, call to be put on our "Do List". Then, if you know when you need your well, you can let us know. If you are in the process of building a new house, you should probably call about two weeks prior to dry-walling.

Can you still drill when the ground is frozen?
|
 |
Yes, with our modern equipment, that's not a problem. Actually, the hardest time to get in and out of a drill sites is when it's muddy out and the ground is soft, not when the ground is frozen.

Why did I receive two estimates?
|
 |
We usually send out two system options. The first, a conventional system, is usually a little more inexpensive, and can satisfy most people's needs. The second, a constant-flow system, is more modern and delivers constant-water pressure despite how many different faucets, etc., you may have going at a given time.

What can I do if I find out I have bacteria in my water?
|
 |
If you have bacteria, we will usually recommend a chlorination. This a simple process that kills the existing bacteria. In the future, you may want to periodically check your water to make sure the bacteria haven't come back.
