Available Services

Greene's Water Wells, Inc. is qualified and equipped to install and/or repair large capacity submersible pumps, as well as, high volume turbine pumps.

Concrete Pad

(5' x 5' x 4") some local health departments my require this pad to be in place prior to testing your well for bacterial quality.

Well Location Service

A Georgia licensed Professional Geologist, using geophysical surveys can "see" into the earth and accurately locate fractures within rock to optimize the yield of drilled wells. Our geologist has a 60% success rate of finding the volume of ground water requested. However, all land parcels are not underlain with abundant ground water, and the amount desired cannot always be assured. There is no fee for initial assessments and proposals.

Bacterial Quality Analysis

Today most lending institutions require a satisfactory bacterial quality analysis at your loan closing. Greene's Water Wells, Inc. is qualified, capable, and willing to assist you in securing your satisfactory bacterial quality analysis.

• Super chlorination and disinfection of well and equipment to assure satisfactory sample.
• Sample collection and delivery (if approved by local health department and lending institution).
• Approved laboratory analysis (mailed or faxed to appropriate parties)

Mineral Quality Analysis

Water quality analysis to determine specific water quality problems are offered by our company. If any quality problems are found these recommendations are offered for specific water condition equipment to solve the quality problem.

Pressure Grout

State of Georgia construction standards require all contractors to grout well casing from the ground to ten feet. Greene's Water Wells, Inc. believes that the state standard is not always effective and problems my still appear. Consequently, upon installing the 6" PVC casing, a slurry of cement and water is mixed and pumped into the well casing. Fresh water is then pumped on top of the cement forcing the cement out the bottom of the casing and upwards, around the outside of the well casing. This forms a positive casing seal at the rock formation, where it is most effective. Few, if any other contractors will grout well casing in this manner.

Hydro Fracture Well Development

Hydro fracture well development is a very practical and proven procedure which Greene's Water Wells, Inc. has used successfully several times. It is by nature, a risk to be assumed by the owner.

• Single Packer Well Development - This procedure is typically best suited for a residential water wells that produces little or no water. The process involves placing a single packer (sealing device) at various depths in the well bore and then pumping potable water at high volume (90+ gpm) and high pressure (3,000 lbs) into the well. The packer is progressively lowered into the well at intervals of 60 to 120 ft. to a maximum of 400 ft. Single packer well development can improve yields of well to 2-8 gallons per minute and in some cases, more than 10 gallons per minute.
• Multiple Packer Well Development - This procedure can be used on all wells, but is typically more suited for municipal, industrial and agricultural water wells. These applications seek the highest yield possible from the Piedmont rock formation. By utilizing 2 packers, the isolation zones are clearly defined and the energy of high volume and high pressure pumping is focused into a specific zone of the existing well. Well development begins at or near the bottom of the well and moves progressively upward (typically 60 ft. intervals) to the top of the rock formation, complete and maximum well development can be achieved in this manner.

Capacity Test (120 hour)

A capacity test uses contractor owned and furnished equipment to pump the completed well. Discharge rates and water level measurements are monitored and recorded during the test period. The test period is usually 24 hours but occasionally is extended to 48 to 72 hours.

Water Quality Test

Extensive water quality testing is required for all public water systems. Testing requirements will be determined by the Georgia Department of Natural Resources and the cost will be governed by those set parameters.
