Have questions about our services? We’ve got you covered. Before contacting us, take a few minutes to watch the video below. It explains our survey process, the technology we use, and what you can expect from start to finish. Once you’ve watched the video, reach out to us for personalized recommendations based on your property and water needs.
If you are wondering how to find the best place to drill for water on your property, these videos provide a clear starting point. Use them together with nearby well records, groundwater information, and a site-specific survey to make a more informed decision before drilling begins.
What You Will Learn
- How a groundwater survey can help compare possible drilling locations
- Why groundwater conditions can change across one property
- Why the best place to drill a water well is not always the most convenient location
- How nearby water-well records can support planning
- Why drilling is still required to confirm actual conditions
DO NOT DRILL COSTLY
Drilling a water well without proper planning can lead to unnecessary expenses, delays, and disappointing results. A groundwater survey helps you make informed decisions before drilling begins by identifying promising underground water-bearing zones. At WaterFind, we use advanced electro seismology technology to evaluate subsurface conditions and recommend the best drilling location for your property. This reduces guesswork and helps you avoid costly drilling in less favorable areas.
COMPLETING A SEISMIC SURVEY FOR WATERFIND
Every successful groundwater survey begins with a thorough evaluation of your property. At WaterFind, our trained specialists use advanced electro seismology technology to collect and analyze underground data, helping identify promising groundwater zones before drilling begins. This process reduces uncertainty by locating potential aquifers, fractures, and water-bearing formations that may support a productive water well.
How Do You Find the Best Place to Drill for Water on Your Property?
There is no single surface feature that can guarantee the best water-well location. A more informed approach combines multiple sources of information before drilling.
That may include:
- Nearby water-well records
- Local geological and groundwater information
- Property access
- Proposed drilling locations
- Groundwater survey data
- Utilities and setback requirements
- The drilling contractor’s professional judgment
WaterFind USA’s role is to provide additional pre-drilling groundwater information that can help compare possible locations.
Use Nearby Well Records Before Drilling
Nearby water-well records can provide useful information about previous drilling in the surrounding area.
Depending on the state record, information may include:
- Total well depth
- Static water level
- Reported yield
- Casing depth
- Formation descriptions
- Completion date
Well records are useful for context, but they cannot guarantee that another drilling location will have the same depth or yield.
Groundwater Survey Before Drilling
A groundwater survey is completed before drilling to gather additional information about possible subsurface groundwater conditions.
Depending on the site, survey interpretation may help evaluate:
- Potential aquifer depth
- Potential aquifer thickness
- Relative groundwater potential
- Differences between survey points
- Possible drilling locations
Survey results are estimates. Actual conditions are confirmed by drilling, well development, and pump testing.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can you find water before drilling, and can WaterFind guarantee success?
A groundwater survey can provide information about possible subsurface groundwater conditions and help compare potential drilling locations. However, survey findings are estimates and cannot guarantee a successful well. Drilling is still required to confirm actual underground conditions.
Can the survey determine water quality, and do nearby well records help?
The survey does not determine final water quality. Water quality must be confirmed through laboratory testing after the well is completed. Nearby well records can provide useful information about previous drilling, depths, yields, and local groundwater conditions, but they cannot guarantee the result of a new well.
Can the survey tell me how deep the groundwater is and how much water the well will produce?
The survey may provide estimated aquifer-depth information and indicate groundwater potential. Actual depth is confirmed during drilling, while sustainable well yield must be confirmed after drilling through proper well development and pump testing.
How is WaterFind different from dowsing, who drills the well, and what projects can WaterFind assist with?
WaterFind uses instrument-based seismic survey equipment rather than traditional dowsing methods. After the survey, the actual well should be constructed by a qualified or properly licensed drilling contractor. WaterFind can assist with groundwater planning for domestic wells, farms, livestock water, irrigation, and commercial projects, depending on the property and current service availability.
