North Coast water well driller you recommend

Talk to Ana at zarana7@yahoo.com She has done a couple wells for me around the Sosua area. She does a good job.

Ana is excellent. I am not sure there is any other company around that does this....

I knew Duane well, I used to golf with him...(he passed away in 07)....but Ana is still running the show. Just curious, does Stanley still work for the company?


This would be a good recommendation.....(Ana)

My next door neighbor in Torre Alta had Anna & Co. dig a well for him about 4 months ago and they did not find water. Now I realize that their is no guarantee's provided, however be aware that you still pay regardless of the outcome! My neighbor was not a happy camper...

Ana and Duane were together for many years and the last few years before Duane's death she ran the company. She has simply continued and does a great job.

Ana get's my vote. They have found water in places that other drillers have given up on. Duane was a great guy, one of the best here. Fond memories BSing many times with him and Ana at Ronnies

Same with me Robert, here's a blast from the past...

Hi, Does anyone know if they have a website or know how much it would cost to drill a well (approx cost would be fine). Thanks

I've had two wells drilled in the past year. $4,500 to $6,000US.

They usually charge by the foot..... so its hard to estimate the cost of drilling.... you just start and wait until - or if - they hit water.
Then you know the cost.... 150 feet - or 193feet.... some can be 300+feet.

My experience???
I drilled a well... very close to my neighbor's whose was 185 feet deep and lots of water.

We got to 210 and found water.... Hurray!!
(Then we quibbled about the actual depth, because after we dropped the pump down there , we came up with a slightly more shallow number.

Anyway.... there was no water !!!!

It appears we tapped into a sort of "run off" situation.
Water only flowed into well after heavy rains... not a peramnent flow.

Two problems there.... not a steady supply of water.... and the Run Off water is quite dirty.

Money 'down the drain' ...so to speak.

Be wary of wells.... they literally walk around with a divining rod like you see in the movies.

Like a bit of WitchCraft

Thanks for the info guys, it gives me some idea if I buy some land and need to 'negotiate'
