Water wells are a great way for you to save on water costs for your home or office, but they require special care. To ensure that the water you’re drinking and using on your property is clean, and bacteria free, it’s important to perform regular maintenance on your well. At Evergreen Well Drilling in Shelton, WA, we know what it takes to keep your well in tip-top shape.

Performing preventative maintenance on your well will help ensure that your water stays fresh and safe to drink. It’s important that you keep products with hazardous chemicals, such as paint, fertilizer, and oils, far away from your well. It’s also essential to keep the cover of your well in good condition.

You should always maintain a fair distance between your well and any new building that is built on your property. When your well has reached the end of its life span, don’t just let it sit there. Have a professional come out and decommission your old well before building a new one.

If you notice a change in taste or smell of your well water, it may be necessary to contact a water testing and well repair professional. The experts at Evergreen Well Drilling are trained to test your water, as well as perform the needed repairs to get your well up and running again. It’s also good to have a professional inspect your well once a year, just to make sure there are no internal problems that you might not be able to see.

These are just a few tips for proper well maintenance. To learn more, visit Evergreen Well Drilling on Facebook, or call us at (360) 426-3545.
