What is the difference between a drilled well and a driven point well?
A drilled well is usually 6 inches in diameter, has more longevity, will add more to the value of the property, can go deeper to achieve better capacity and quality water, the pump is submersed in the well (less noisy) and does not need to be primed, and is easier to hook up to the pressure tank and to winterize. A driven point well is usually 2 inches or 1-1/4 inches, can be driven in areas where accessibility is a problem, and costs less than a drilled well. When deciding which to install, a homeowner should take into account the types of usage of the well, including how often it will be used. We install both 6″ drilled and 2″ driven wells and can help you with your decision.
