Well Casing Repair and Replacement
A damaged well casing can shut down your entire well system
The well casing is the pipe that lines the borehole of your well. It keep the well open and protects the water source from contamination, extending from just below the surface to the full depth of your well.
A damaged well casing can lead to water contamination, loss of flow, or complete system failure. It's important to repair or replace as soon as possible, to prevent more costly repairs.
Signs of a Damaged Well Casing
You may suspect your casing is damaged or failing if you notice:
Dirty or cloudy water A sudden drop in flow rate New sulfur or metallic odors Sand or sediment in your water Recurring bacterial contamination (like E. Coli) Pump cycling problems Visible cracks or movement around the well head
How We Approach Casing Repair and Replacement
We're able to utilize our downhole camera system to confirm whether the well casing needs repair; if we discover a problem with the casing, the solution will follow one of two paths:
Casing Repair
For minor damage or localized leaks:
Casing sleeves or patches can be inserted to seal cracks Grouting or sealing around the casing to fix contamination from above Well cleaning and chlorination follow these steps to flush out contaminants
Casing Replacement
If the casing is badly corroded, collapsed, or split:
We may pull the existing pump, ream out the old casing, and install a new casing to
proper depth In some cases a new well may be drilled if the original is no longer structurally
