Some “Tricks of the Trade” below & Do’s and Don’ts at

Email excerpts; Most drillers are dishonest and misleading;
- Our property is located at 18931 Camino Vista rd, Ramona, CA 92065. The well was drilled by John Warden. The location by GPS is at 33.05591° -116.79939°. This same site was selected by three drillers based on the surface rock formations. There were several fractures between about 400-600' and we only ended up with 2-3 gpm. We had him keep drilling to 1000' with nothing else.
- John Warden was the only driller that I could get to call me back and when I told him you selected the drilling site did not have a problem with it. Several other drillers were rude once I told them I had a drilling site selected by you. They told me they have never had any luck on your sites and I needed to use their dowser. John told me about the well you mentioned in the email when I asked him how often he drills a dry hole…..
If a driller selected your site to drill, as above, enticed you to drill near power, recommended a water-witcher etc. with unsatisfied results.
You can get a free well drilled or a refund.
- Misleading. Driller convinces you to drill blindly at a spot and no water received.
- Drillers offers you a discount and you foolishly think he is a good guy.
- Because the discount was not in the contract.
- The driller knowingly knew the odds, that the well would be bad, low output.
- He offers you a discount to get you to think he is a good guy.
- Deceptive gallons per minute. Driller wants to get paid for drilling a worthless well.
- Each vertical foot holds around 1 ½ gallons of water.
- When the output of the well is a low producer.
- Driller lets the seepage fill up the hole over night.
- If the hole fills up 500 vertical feet, than you have 750 gallons of water in the well.
- To get paid, driller controls the air flow showing an output from 3 up to 10 gallons per minute. It will only last for a few hours.
- Happy, you pay him.
- Than you pay for an expensive pump system.
- Switch on the pump and the well turns off in a few hours.
- Well went dry.
- Excuse from the Driller #2 above, happens, which is frequently.
- Well was in a pocket of water and you just pumped it dry.
- We had a few earth tremors and it closed off the fractures.
- Water-witching. Driller recommending a water witcher.
- Falsely stating that his witcher never misses.
- 80 % of water -witched wells are low in production.
- Blind drilling, you can save money if you driller here.
- Driller states that you can drill here near electricity which will save you electrical cost.
- Drill here on the flat spot where the driller can set up.
- Driller is not interested in water but closing the deal.
