What to Look for in a Well Driller

The Four E's of Trusted Well Drillers
Whether you need:

a water well drilled,
geothermal heating and cooling installed,
environmental and geotechnical drilling, or
construction and dewatering drilling,

there are Four E's you should look for in any driller in order to select a reputable drilling company.

#1 E - Experience
This E is vital. Drilling is far more complicated and involved than simply digging a hole in the ground.

Every drilling job demands drillers that know what they're doing. And that knowledge comes from experience.

Thankfully, this E is easy to research. Call the drillers you're considering for you drilling job or visit their websites to see how long they've been in business.

It's also a good idea to ask for references for two reasons. First, the driller will only have references to give if they're experienced. Second, if the driller is experienced, but not very good, their references will tell you so.

#2 E - Energy
Experience is vital. But you also want a driller who's still active in the industry. You want a driller who has the benefit of experience and the energy to get in, do the job right, and get out quickly, letting you get on with your business.

To get that balance between experience and energy, you may have to find a driller that's more than one person. When checking out drillers, see if they have a range of ages and years experience represented in their team. That way, you're more likely to get the experience and energy you want for your drilling job.

#3 E - Equipment
Experience and energy can't drill a hole. A driller needs powerful drilling equipment.

Better yet, a driller needs a range of drills to tackle the range of unique drilling jobs out there.

Better still, a driller needs a range of the latest and best drilling equipment to provide the best drilling service possible.

When researching who will be your driller, find out if they're a one-drill, one-man show, or a well-rounded team of experienced and energetic drillers with all the tools currently needed to do the job right.

#4 E - Easy to Work With
Finally, if you find a driller that offers the experience, energy and equipment your drilling job requires, make sure they're easy to work with.

Notice how they talk to you on the phone. Pay attention to how they answer your questions. Get a sense of whether they like being a driller.

Your drilling job can't be a positive experience if your driller is difficult to work with.
