Well Inspection

Before buying a house, get a well inspection done. This will help you know whether you need to drill new wells or repair existing ones. You’ll also learn if the well is in an appropriate place and if it contains enough water. The inspector will check if the well meets state standards and requirements.

Water wells last longer than municipal systems, but require regular inspection and maintenance. Well inspections should be done annually. Wells tap into underground sources of fresh water, providing safe drinking water. Homeowners must maintain wells, and keep them in good working condition.
