Well Inspections and Water Treatment
If you decide to have your water system inspected we can point out other potential sources of contamination and help you rectify them. We work with you to meet the requirements of the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources in regard to well filling and sealing.
Water samples and testing
Water well sampling and testing involves collecting and analyzing water samples from a well to identify contaminants and ensure the water is safe to drink. The Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (DNR) recommends routine testing for private wells.
Tank Installation
Installing a water well tank (well pressure tank), involves replacing an old tank. The storage tank that acts as a buffer between the well pump and the home’s plumbing fixtures, ensuring a steady water pressure when a tap is opened. It also stores water and provides pressure when the pump isn’t running, which prolongs the pump’s life.
Abandonments and Lateral Leaks
Wells must be properly filled when they are removed from service. If your property is served by a municipal drinking water system, a municipal well filling and sealing ordinance may also require you to obtain a permit or permanently fill and seal any private wells on your property.

Common Questions About Water Wells
- How much water do I need?
The amount of water you will need will depend upon the size of your home, the amount of lawn and garden watering, and future watering needs. At a minimum, we like to see a well produce 10 to 15 gallons per minute. If you are planning to irrigate your lawn or garden on top of daily functions you should have about 20-25 gallons per minute. - How much does a well cost?
Typical domestic water wells range from $2,500 to $15,000 but very deep or complex wells can cost much more. The pump system and installation costs will be determined by the depth of the well and the gallons per minute needed to run the system. - What is a pump system?
A pump system includes everything to get your water from your well to your house. In other words it will consist of a pump, motor, control box, pitless adapter, pressure tank, pressure switch, pressure gauge, check valves, well cap or seal, drop pipe and submersible wire in the well, pipe and wire from the well to the house, fittings and one or more yard hydrants. - What is Ground Water?
Groundwater is water below the surface of the land that fills the spaces between grains of sediment and rocks or fills cracks and fractures in the rock. Mother Nature has made the rocks of the earth as a natural storage place for our groundwater. According to the National Ground Water Association, each day, over 130 million Americans get their drinking water from groundwater.
