What will my well look like when you are done?

 We often get asked what a completed well looks like. To tell the truth, it doesn't look like more than a piece of steel coming out of the ground with a cement slab around it. Here's a quick picture: 


The real magic in well construction is all below the surface. Well drilling is an art, science and geology lesson all wrapped into one tight space! Well Drilling, especially in Southern California can be very challenging and there are a lot of unknowns. As you might know topography and geology in California are very diverse due to our unique position in the world. This means that formations, strata, and material vary greatly depending on your location. 

An experienced drilling company should have an army of experience, knowledge and records to be prepared for your drilling project. They should be able to accurately tell you what to expect in your drilling project and be prepared with the tooling and material to make it happen. Here at Heritage Well our family has been drilling in the local area since the 1980's and have the tools and experience to ensure the success of your project. 

We say that well drilling is an art because it takes a combination of experience, know-how and proper tooling to correctly install every well. When you hire Heritage Well for your drilling project you are calling upon our unique history in the area to develop your project and trusting us to make the best recommendations for your location and project goals. 

A completed well (with a pump installed) looks something like this, this system is ready to pump water from the ground and lucky for this customer in Temecula, they got over 100+ gallons per minute in their newly drilled well!

What will my new pump look like when its done?

 Often we are asked what will my new pump installation look like? Most of what gets installed in your newly drilled well is below the surface and you aren't able to see it but topside there are few things you should see. Here's a recent example of one of our new pump installations in a newly drilled well: First things first, your new well should have an outer casing liner coming out of the ground. The material of this casing is typically steel but we do see some companies who install a PVC conductor casing, check with your local county office for requirements for your area. Depending on the county in which your well was drilled the county requirements might differ. Some counties require a minimum of 12" above the cement slab, other counties have no requirement at all as to how high the casing should be. It's best to check with your local county Department of Environmental Health for standards specific to your area.  The same set of rules applies to the cement slab inst
