As advanced as modern civilization has become, humans are still very much at the mercy of their water supply, and developing a relationship with savvy well contractors is an important step toward ensuring water source safety. Dalmik Well Contractors of Putnam, CT, has earned a reputation for quality everywhere from southern Massachusetts to western Rhode Island. As experts in well drilling and maintenance, they have assessed the safety and suitability of hundreds of wells.

It’s extremely desirable to have absolute faith in the safety of your water supply. Here are three ways Putnam’s top well contractors will help assess the condition of your water:

• Check Location: Especially if your well was constructed long ago, it’s a smart idea to make sure it’s positioned in the right place on your property. Dalmik Well Contractors will take measurements to ensure that your well is over 100 feet from the septic system, 100 feet from any kind of animal or farm apparatus, and 25 feet away from other bodies of water. These measurements are necessary to guard against contamination possibilities.
• Scrutinize Construction: The well contractors will also want to inspect that your well was constructed in line with strict safety standards. They’ll be looking at both construction materials and technical matters; for example, their well contractors will make sure the well casing rises at least twelve inches higher than the ground. If something deviates even a little bit from the official standards, your water could be compromised.
• Test Conditions: Dalmik Well Contractors will come and look around your well for any traces of potential contaminants like fertilizers and degreasers. Depending on their findings, they may tell you it's time for your water to be tested for problematic bacteria.
