New Water Wells for New Jersey Homes
A new well starts with siting the borehole, then drilling through soil and into bedrock until it produces enough water to supply the house. We case the upper section, grout it, and develop the well before any pump goes in.

What the job involves
Siting and permits
Where the well goes is governed by setbacks from septic, property lines, and structures. Permitting happens before the rig arrives.
Drilling
Depth depends on the geology under your property, not on a standard number. Two houses on the same road can need very different depths.
Casing and grouting
Steel casing seals off the soil and shallow groundwater so only water from the producing zone enters the well.
Yield and development
The well is developed and its yield measured. That number determines what pump and storage the house needs.
Thinking about a new well?
Tell us where the property is and what you need the well to do. We will walk you through permits, likely depth, and what it is going to cost before anything starts.
