So I had Ballard Water Well out of Willis, TX out yesterday and today. We have (finally) installed the well. It dried up enough to get the truck half off the driveway and the well was dug. Here's a picture of one of the trucks.
Unfortunately I wasn't here at home while the digging was going on. I had to work. But afterwards, the next day they came out to set the tank up on a little slab thing and we told them to hook up the electric for us. We got some pretty cool deals that I won't go into details here.
I was told that at around 80 feet down they hit water, and they drilled to the bottom of that which ended up being 160 ft. My dad's well is right next door and his is at 175 and he thinks the water started right around the same depth as mine. His land is lower in altitude by a few feet only though so...
My tank is about is high as I am. So I'll always have quite a bit of water on hand for a good amount of pressure. I have one more step, a septic, and then I can start on my real house.
