Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if my well needs rehabilitation instead of a new well?
Start with a down-hole video inspection and a yield test. If the casing and borehole are structurally sound and the aquifer still has water, rehabilitation is almost always cheaper and faster than drilling a new well. If the casing has failed or the original aquifer is exhausted, drilling a new well may be the better long-term answer.
How much does well rehabilitation cost in Utah?
Most residential well rehabilitation jobs in Utah fall between $2,500 and $12,000 depending on depth, the rehab method (hydraulic, mechanical, chemical, or a combination), and whether the pump and column pipe also need work. Agricultural and commercial wells can be more. We provide a written estimate after the diagnostic inspection.
How long does well rehabilitation take?
Most jobs take one to three days on site. Diagnostic inspection and yield testing usually happen the first day, the actual rehabilitation work takes one or two days, and a follow-up yield test confirms the result. Complex jobs with casing repair can take longer.
Will rehabilitation actually restore my well's original output?
When the loss of yield is caused by encrustation, biofouling, sediment plugging, or worn screens, rehabilitation often recovers 80–100% of the original output. When the loss is caused by a falling regional water table from drought, rehabilitation alone may not be enough — deepening the well or drilling a new one may be needed.
Do I need a permit to rehabilitate my well?
Most rehabilitation work on an existing, properly permitted well does not require a new water rights filing in Utah. If we need to deepen the well significantly or change its construction, we may need to file paperwork with the Utah Division of Water Rights. We handle the coordination for you.
