How To Choose a Water Well Driller

Through-out the summer months of any year in the Langley and communities – there will always be plenty of local water wells that run dry, many are marginal at best through-out the rest of the year.

A water well that runs dry might have been preventable had the initial workmanship been performed to a high-standard.  When drilling a water well and installing new well pump in Langley you absolutely need everything to be done to your expectation the FIRST time around!

Substandard well drilling frequently goes hand-in-hand with low-ball bidding and well drilling practices that may not live up to most property owner’s expectations when they choose to contract with a low-bidding water well driller.

Most property owner’s will only drill one water well during their life-time - if they ever drill one and all.  Typically people are not aware of how the well drilling industry really operates... they can get themselves into some pretty vulnerable situations.  Making them easy prey for drilling operators who might not always have the  client’s best interest as their primary goal.

Often well drilling results can be discouraging at best with ongoing water-well-problems such as water quality, potential contamination issues often resulting from well casings that may be leaking, and even low producing wells that could have been prevented by a highly-skilled well driller, good well drilling equipment and the utilization of proper site selection as part of the process.
 
Drilling Water Wells to Last


These are a just few of the potential water-well-problems that can reduce the enjoyment and benefits that a quality drilled well system should offer.  In hindsight, at the end of a drilling project most people will agree that sub-standard well drilling is COSTLY, often creating ongoing disruptions and daily inconveniences for many water well owners.
 
The well drilling industry is a difficult and a costly business to operate profitably, requiring big equipment and lots of expenses.  The consistent lack of profits makes it difficult for an owner-operator to survive let alone thrive in the water well industry... as they struggle the begin to low-ball industry prices to survive.

Guidelines and the British Columbia Well Drilling Regulations have slowly improved, but drilling skills, mindset and well drilling equipment in the British Columbia water well industry often don’t.

If a water well rig owner lacks the ability to pay skilled labor as required when drilling for water, they will often operate alone and without sufficient finances.

Many times, it’s local property owners in Langley who suddenly need to drill a well during the hot summer months who end-up paying the price for all these in-capacities.  The summer waiting list to drill a well can be long but when people are anxious to drill they will often take whoever they can get to drill a well.

Possible 60 to 100-foot wells suddenly become 300 to 400-foot wells. Well drilling shortcuts, old equipment and poor drilling practices result in drilling projects that become an ongoing water-well-problem.

Best Time To Drill a Well in Langley

We can never figure out why people wait until the worst time of the year to drill a well... we drill all year long, the busy months to drill a water well in Langley is from April right through late November, during these months people will often be quoted higher rates than the standard well drilling cost in Langley.  If you are ready to drill a well in Langley the best time to drill a well is during our quieter season, from from December until the end of March.

Well Drilling Quotes… The Truth About Estimates


Manipulating a well drilling estimate is not difficult.  Don't become an in-experienced player in the very old game of water well drilling.  Many people will often accept a well drilling contract based exclusively on the lowest-bid or the cheapest cost per foot to drill a well, this really isn’t the best way to decide on a well driller in any area.
 
Reputable well drillers will generally never bid low, it would be very unlikely.  Good well drillers are always in high demand and will never bastardize their own industry.  Good drilling operators provide estimates that are fair but allowing the room to perform an important service on your property - we're discussing your water source not a lean-to barn in the backyard.
 
Your drilled water well system is a fundamental part of your property, not unlike a life support system, it’s a necessity if you want a reliable source of water.  If you question that, try living on a property without water for a few days.  That’s what many people experience daily when they have a water well that is not able to sustain a property.
 
If someone in your family suddenly had a heart-attack would you run around searching for the cheapest, low-balling heart surgeon possible or a bargain basement life-support-system?  Not likely!   Remember, cheap is not always the best deal - water well drilling certainly fits into that category! 

What do heart attacks and water wells have in common you're maybe wondering?  You may want to read a few water well drilling stories... you'll get the picture.
 
Sometimes, small neighborhood well drillers will offer price slashing estimates as a necessity to keep a deteriorating well drilling rig operating for another year, praying that they don’t have a major breakdown.

An unsuspecting property owner can easily fall prey thinking they’ve just scored the deal of a lifetime with a low-ball well drilling quote in Langley.  I've seen it often over the past 25-years. As a veteran groundwater consultant in the well drilling and water systems industry I've witnessed a lot of undesirable well drilling practices. Often receiving phone calls after the fact... it can be frustrating for property owners, often with little recourse.

Well Drilling and Legal Issues
 

Property owners often asking... "Can I sue?"  Often unfortunately, my advice will be this...  Why bother throwing good money after bad?  Suck up your losses, drill another well and hopefully learn a valuable lesson!  Remember, a courtroom is the most expensive real estate in the country!  When water wells become legal issues - it's mind-sucking and stressful.

If you want a list of the best water well drillers in British Columbia give our office a call... we are happy to help you.  At Langley Well Drilling we work with the best water well drilling companies in BC.

With the advice that I'm offering you here there's no reason for you to get yourself into trouble, regardless of where you live.  Do your due diligence... and remember a well drilling quote often will not resemble the final invoice.  
 
When it comes to well drilling property owners may come to regret that they did not make a wiser and more informed decision prior to hiring a water well driller in Langley and through-out the province.
 
For this reason, Langley Well Drilling always sends a top journeyman well driller to meet and consult with you on your property prior to finalizing a well drilling contract with us.  We're extremely professional and want you to feel comfortable knowing that we have your best interest at heart.  Are we perfect?  No... but we sure aim to do our best!
 
Cost to Drill a Well in Langley


Because of the high-cost of operating a well drilling company, some operators lack the ability and the equipment to manage even the most basic well drilling problems that commonly occur.
 
A highly experienced water well driller on-site is very important especially when tackling sometimes difficult well drilling problems that can arise when drilling for water in the Langley area.  There's more to drilling a water well than most people really understand.  Well drilling requires fully serviced and equipped well drilling equipment along with a top-notch well driller and an organized team.
 
If a well driller is not competent or his drilling equipment is not up to the task, well drilling problems may be concealed and never mentioned by a driller while drilling a well in Langley.  If any well drilling concerns were not brought to your attention during the time of drilling, you can be sure that they're likely not going to be brought up  upon invoicing either.
 
Water well repairs in Langley may be required if a well was not properly constructed, water well repairs are costly - and a well repair isn't always possible. Sometimes, it's better to begin with a new well than it is to repair a water well, depends of the issue and the nature of the required repair.
 
Remember the Walkerton Water Tragedy?
 

It would not be unusual for unsuspecting water well owners to consume contaminated water for years prior to discovering they’ve had an ongoing contamination issue with their well.  Most of us remember the Walkerton water well tragedy and the unspeakable consequences it caused in Walkerton?  The scope of such negligence was horrendous, it should have never occurred and was preventable.
 
The Walkerton contamination tragedy occurred because heavy rains washed manure into a community well in Walkerton, Ontario, there may have also been a cross contamination issue with another old well.
 
Municipal or community water wells will typically have all the required bells-and-whistles installed along with multiple-barriers in place to protect the water source whereas, local wells on private land are not nearly as equipped, making the value of quality workmanship and materials very important, without question.
 
Question: If the Walkerton contamination issue occurred in a community water well system, what would you think is possible for a sub-standard drilled water well or an unprotected shallow dug well located on private property?  If a surface seal and well casing is not properly installed there may be little to prevent land-use or subsurface-contamination from entering the water well.  Is that worth saving a few bucks as stated on a low-ball drilling quote?
 
My best well drilling advice is this...  go find other places to cut corners but don’t do it with the construction of a new local water well.  Even if you are not drilling the well for for yourself but are drilling for resale or a property please consider those who may someday be at risk by poor well drilling standards and workmanship.
 
Older well-drilling-rigs operating with out-of-date equipment and may not be properly maintained maybe leaking sufficient hydraulic fluids that could rapidly contaminate a well drilling site or even the water well itself.  When a hydraulic-line let’s go while the well drilling rig is situated over your open well head - it’s not a good situation, equipment maintenance is of utmost importance.  Older equipment is not the key issue as many older rigs are kept up but the lack of maintenance is an issue.  Good operators take care of their equipment. 

It does work both ways though… a modern tricked-out well drilling rig without an experienced well driller is not of much value.  I would rather have an older rig with a driller that I'm comfortable with on site any day of the week, some of the best water well drillers in BC operate older well drilling rigs.

Over the years I've learned a property owner might find it difficult if not impossible to get an under-financed, low-end well driller to even return a phone call, often needing to call repeatedly for weeks or longer - let alone expect them to warranty any water well problems that may have been created when they drilled the well.  That’s not the experience that most people are looking for when they sign a well drilling contract!  Most people hire in good faith believing they will be taken care of.

There's tremendous upside to having a drilled water well on your Langley property, with many fantastic well drillers throughout the province it's just a matter of hiring the right one.  The goal of this article is to help people become more aware prior to hiring a well drilling company, regardless of where you live.  When contracting to drill a well, ask for the history of the well drilling company, the well driller, and drilling team.

Feel free to contact our office if you need any information... we have a number of well drillers that we recommend through-out British Columbia including Vancouver Island and the Gulf Islands.

Langley Cost to Drill A Well - Water System Diagram
Water Well Efficiency

With any well drilling method in Langley, 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 Langley 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 a 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 Langley Water Well Drilling greatly enhance our water well development procedures!

Well Screen Design and Selection


Well Drilling Langley 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 Langley is committed to increasing the amount  of water well education reaching the reaching the communities that we serve.

A water well drilled in Langley 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.

In the Fraser Valley both shallow wells and deep wells can be vulnerable and should always be located away from surface drainage ditches and other potential sources of contamination.
