Well Drilling in San Antonio: local context

San Antonio has hot summers, flash-flood-prone storms, a mix of expansive clay and limestone ground, and mostly slab-on-grade homes.

Most homes inside San Antonio itself are on municipal water, so well drilling in the San Antonio–New Braunfels area is concentrated on the outer edges of the metro and in rural parts of surrounding counties: new household wells, replacement wells, irrigation wells and geothermal loops.

Local factors include limestone aquifers. Most states license or register well drillers; ask for the driller's Texas credential, an estimate that explains per-foot pricing, casing and pump costs, and who handles the permit and water testing.

Licensing and permit rules differ by state and city. Check with Texas licensing authorities and the local building or permitting office for what applies to your project.

Questions to ask before you hire

  • What is your per-foot price, and what is included?
  • What casing, pump and pressure tank are quoted?
  • Who handles the permit and water testing?
  • What is your state license or registration number?
  • What happens if the first hole is dry?
