Abbotsford Water Well Drillers
Sub-standard water wells frequently go hand-in-hand with low-bidding and drilling practices that may not live up to most property owner’s expectations when they choose to contract with a low-bidding Abbotsford water well driller. The end results can be discouraging at best with water well troubles such as water quality, possible contamination problems that can result from leaky casings, and even low-yielding wells that may have been prevented by a highly skilled journeyman water well driller.
You May Be Living with Your Water Well for a LONG Time
Simply, these are just a few of the water well problems that could drastically stop property owners from enjoying the benefits that a top-quality drilled water should bring to the ownership of a property. At the end of the day poor quality well drilling is very pricey, often causing disruptive and inconvenient living for many water well owners.
The water well drilling industry is a difficult and costly industry to not only enter but to operate profitably, making it difficult for many single owner-operators to survive let alone thrive in the industry. As Guidelines and the BC Well Drilling Regulations improve, drilling skills, mindset and equipment often don’t.
When a well driller lacks the ability to pay skilled manpower or is operating without adequate financial backing, it’s the local property owners needing to drill a water well that frequently ends-up paying the price. Well drilling shortcuts, old equipment and poor drilling practices result in projects that are often completed in a less than satisfactory fashion.
The Value of a Well Drilling Estimate
It’s not difficult to manipulate well drilling estimates. Don't become a new player in an old game. Too often property owners may agree to a well drilling contract based on the cheapest bid or cost per foot to drill a well, this is NOT the way to contract with a reputable well drilling contractor in the Abbotsford area. Reputable well drillers never bid low, they bid fair and they perform a vital service on your property... we are discussing your water source!
A water system is a fundamental life-support system required on your property. If someone were to have a heart attack in your family would you run around searching for the cheapest low-balling heart surgeon you could find? Probably not... there’s just some things where cheap can get you into a whole lot of trouble, water well drilling is one of them!
Sometimes, small neighborhood operators will offer price-cutting quotes just to keep his aging well drilling rig limping along to the best of it’s ability and the unsuspecting property owners often fall prey thinking they just made the deal of a lifetime. I've seen it far to often over the past 25 or more years, as a consultant in the industry I often receive the phone calls... it can be very frustrating for property owners.
While most people will agree that anyone should have the ability to do business and earn a living in their given marketplace, but should that be the case if it’s possibly detrimental to the customer or to public health? When it comes to well drilling many property owners come to regret not making a more informed decision prior to hiring a water well driller.
The Cost of Water Well Drilling
When I first entered the well drilling industry one of my wise mentors told me, "these rigs don't run on love!"
Because of the high operating costs for a well drilling company, some operators lack the ability and the equipment to manage well drilling problems as they frequently occur. Expertise is a necessity to tackle difficult well drilling situations on local private properties. There's more involved in drilling a water well than most property owners ever realize, it requires highly-maintained equipment and a team of experienced and organized tradespeople.
If a driller or his equipment is not competent, water well construction problems may be concealed or not discussed during the drilling and installation process and seldom upon invoicing. If water well repairs are eventually required, it will be costly at best to do the repairs if even possible. It would not be unusual for unsuspecting water well owners to consume contaminated water for years prior to discovering they have a contamination issue with their Abbotsford water well.
Some of the older well drilling rigs are not operating with up-to-date equipment or properly maintained, often leaking excessive hydraulic fluids that can rapidly contaminate a well drilling site or even the water well itself. When a hydraulic-line blows as the rig is sitting over your open wellhead… it’s not a good situation, drill rig maintenance is of utmost importance.
With 25-years of groundwater consulting in British Columbia I've noticed that a water well owner may find it difficult if not completely impossible to get their under-financed. low-end operator to even return a phone call - never mind warranty any water well problems that were created when the well was drilled.
There is a tremendous upside to water well drilling and there’s some fantastic drillers out there, some of these completed water wells are spectacular, but my goal in this article is to make you fully aware, regardless of where you live. Be careful when contracting to drill a well, ask for the history of the well drilling company, the well driller, and drilling team.

Water Well Efficiency
With any drilling method in Abbotsford, the permeability of the formation around the borehole is reduced. For example, in the cable-tool method, compaction and clay smearing occur. With wet-rotary drilling, fluid infiltrates the aquifer and when reverse circulation is used, water laden with fines often obstructs the formation as a vacuum effect occurs around the bit.
Water Well Development
Water well development in Abbotsford is demanding and critical to any quality water well completion to maximize the efficiency of the well by rehabilitating the aquifer after the disruption of the water well drilling and installation process.
Fine particles surrounding the well screen must be removed from the area to increase the permeability of the aquifer, the use of air and our unique surge methods at Abbotsford Water Well Drilling greatly enhance our water well development procedures!
Well Screen Design and Selection
Well Drilling Abbotsford understand the importance of water well screen design, the careful selection of a well screen is, without doubt, the most important consideration in producing an efficient water well. A properly selected well screen will be designed to serve two basic purposes: to permit unobstructed entry of clean water free from sediment into the well, and to permit a maximum flow to the formation for development procedures.
Water Well Drilling Abbotsford is committed to increasing the amount of water well education reaching the reaching the communities that we serve. We are about to launch the weekly Fraser Valley Water Well Broadcast. We also recommend that you read the Complete Well Drilling Guide by Colleen Roberts.
There will be a FREE printable version available by January 1, 2018. If you would like a copy of this soon to be released Water Well Drilling Guide, request Your Copy Here
