How we decide where to drill your well

Where you drill matters as much as how deep you go. Pick the wrong spot and you can spend money chasing water that a neighbor hit easily a few hundred feet away. Here’s roughly how we think about it.

We start with what’s already known

The state keeps driller’s logs for wells across Idaho, and we’ve drilled a lot of this country ourselves. Before we ever quote a site, we look at what nearby wells found: how deep they went, what they hit, and how much water they make. That history tells us more than almost anything else.

Then we read the ground

Geology, slope, where the water is likely moving, and where it makes sense to put a rig and run a truck. We walk the property with you. Some folks like us to witch the spot, and we’re happy to, but the well logs and the lay of the land do the real work.

And we tell you straight

If a site looks tough, we say so before you commit. The goal is water you can count on, not a hole we got paid to drill. That’s the whole business.
