Our Residential Well Drilling Process

No two properties are the same, and neither are their water needs. Our personalized well service process is designed to give you a system that delivers reliable flow, excellent pressure, and long-lasting performance:


  1. Site Assessment & Planning – We evaluate your land for ideal well placement—factoring in local geology, existing infrastructure, and water needs. This ensures safe, efficient well drilling that meets local and state codes.
  2. Expert Drilling – Our team uses industry-leading rigs and techniques to drill deep into stable rock formations that yield high-quality well water. Each well drilling job is customized for depth, diameter, and water output.
  3. Flow Rate & Quality Testing – After drilling, we test for well water yield (gallons per minute) and water quality to confirm it meets your household’s demands.
  4. Pump & Pressure System Installation – We install top-grade pump systems, pressure tanks, and valves that are compatible with your well water depth and flow.
  5. Customer Education & Warranty – Once installation is complete, we’ll walk you through your new well system and provide guidance on care and maintenance, along with a one-year workmanship warranty.

Why You Should Hire a Professional for Well Drilling

FAQs

  • How long does it take to drill a residential well?

    Most wells can be drilled and completed within 1–3 days, depending on depth, terrain, and weather conditions. B&H handles everything from site planning to installation efficiently to minimize disruption to your property.

  • Can I drill my own residential well?

    Missouri requires licensed drillers for residential wells. DIY drilling can result in contamination, low yield, or legal issues. Our team at B&H Well Drilling is licensed, insured, and compliant with Missouri DNR regulations, ensuring your water supply is safe and legal.

  • How deep will my well need to be?

    Depth depends on your location’s water table and rock formations. In the Jefferson City area, most wells range between 100–400 feet deep. During your site assessment, we’ll recommend the best depth for clean, consistent water flow.

  • Do you offer warranties on residential well drilling?

    No. After your well is drilled, we will submit a well registration report to the Missouri Department of Natural Resources.

  • How do I maintain my well after installation?

    We recommend an annual inspection for water quality, pump performance, and pressure systems. B&H provides ongoing service and maintenance to keep your well operating efficiently for decades.
