Surface water resources such as rivers, dugouts, and many shallow dug wells; require much more maintenance. Treatment of well water often requires chlorination or UV sterilization for bacteria and parasites etc.

Maple Ridge Well Drilling
Maple Ridge Water Well Efficiency

With any water well drilling method in Maple Ridge the permeability of the formation around the bore-hole is reduced.

Here's an example, with the cable tool method of drilling for water, compaction and clay-smearing occurs. With the wet rotary drilling method, fluid infiltrates the aquifer and when reverse circulation is used, water that is loaded down with fines can often obstruct the formation as a vacuum effect occurs around the drill bit.

Water Well Development

Water well development in the Maple Ridge area is demanding and vital for superior water well completion to maximize the efficiency of a well by rehabilitating the aquifer after the disruption caused by the drilling and water well installation process.

Fine-particles surrounding a well-screen must be removed from the area to increase the permeability of the aquifer, with the use of air and our unique surge methods at Maple Ridge Well Drilling we greatly enhance our water well development process!  It's worth taking a little extra time to do RIGHT!

Water Well Screen Design & Selection


Maple Ridge Well Drilling understands the importance of water well-screen design, careful selection of a well screen is, without doubt, the most important consideration when constructing an efficient water well. A properly selected well-screen is designed to serve two basic purposes: to allow the un-obstructed entry of clean water free from sediment into the well, and to permit a maximum flow to the formation for water well development procedures.

Water Well Set-back Regulations for
Maple Ridge Area

In Maple Ridge Water Wells Should Not Be:

1)  Within a horizontal distance of 3 m (10') of an existing building.
2)  Within a horizontal distance of 30 m (100') of any probable source of contamination or point of waste discharge to the ground, such as a privy vault, cesspool, septic effluent field, manure heap, stable or pig sty; or
3)  Within a horizontal distance of 120 m (400') of any cemetery or dumping ground.

Not all water wells are drilled deep in Maple Ridge, in fact many wells will be far less than 200' deep.  If a water well is located near potential sources of contamination it is vulnerable and can become contaminated with the possibly of causing serious illness or even death.

British Columbia Water Well Regulations and the Ministry of Environment set-backs for water well in Pitt Meadows and Maple Ridge are required to protect water resources from becoming contaminated from a multitude of possible sources.

To understand comparable well drilling depths in Maple Ridge, it's best to locate the Ministry of Environment set-backs and refer to your local resources including well drilling reports, resources are available at BC Water Well Search and local community bylaw offices.

Possible sources of well contamination include waste discharge to the ground, such as privy vaults (also known as an outhouse or pit toilet), cesspool (“overflow” pits), underground storage tanks, septic tanks an effluent field, stable or pig sty, manure heap, fertilizers and pesticides, runoff from urban areas, even a cemetery or landfill sites.

A water well drilled the Maple Ridge, Whonnock or any of the surrounding communities should be located on higher ground when possible to protect the well head from normal or seasonal flooding and possible surface drainage.

Both shallow wells and deep water wells located anywhere in the Fraser Valley can become vulnerable and should always be located away from surface drainage-ditches and other possible problems and sources of contamination.
