I need someone to drill a shallow well -- anyone have recommendation?
thanks,
 
We are always recommending well guys and septic guys everyday. Daniel or Mike Spiva 850-258-2265 or 850-835-0458 or for the serious well guys call the McClain Brothers there in the phone book.

If I were looking to drill a shallow well, I'd take notes from my neighbor who used a couple of pieces of pvc pipe and a garden hose to drill his well which he uses for landscape. Cost? a few bucks, for the pipe, plus the cost of the pump. Now that is cool! :cool:
 
When I needed to have a well drilled I called probably a dozen companies. Some of which had a different name, but the same owner. I don't know about you, but when I need a job done, I want to know whether the person is of a good reputation, has a good reference from previous customers, and the county inspectors. I want the job done right the first time. There are a lot of dissatisfied customers who would gladly tell you who not to use, hopefully before you lost money.

I too have used these guys. We bought new parts, my husband did everything he knew to do, & thought our well was dry.:bang: Daniel came out, it was a minor problem, charged us for a service call. Very nice guys and didn't try to drill us a new well when we didn't need it. When you don't know whether or not you will have water that day, and you're as desperate as we were ( I have an infant at home--I must have running water!) it would be very easy for a well company to take advantage of people who don't know any better. Spiva's is great!:clap:
 
Thanks for the info! Just had my pump replaced by the McClains. Fast, courteous, professional and a very reasonable price. A+++!!
