Well Drilling
Manage Your Own Fresh Water Thanks to TCI Companies’ Well Drilling Services
Do you often find yourself complaining about the condition of your city’s water? We don’t blame you! Depending on your location, issues like pollutants in runoff, excessive chlorine treatment, and more can make your water taste “off.” But that’s the only water your city provides, so what can you do? Actually, there’s an alternative to relying on the primary water supplies for Champaign, Bloomington, Peoria, and throughout Central Illinois. It all starts with well drilling and installing a new well and pump system for your home! Contact TCI Water Well & Pump Service today to discover what it takes to break your dependence on municipal water supplies.

Why Consider Well Drilling?
With your home already connected to your city’s water supply, what’s the point of messing with well drilling? It just so happens that some people prefer more control over what they ingest and where it comes from, water being no exception. You can have the cleanest, most convenient water supply thanks to an investment in well drilling and a water pump. Some of the benefits of well drilling entail:
- Overall Cleaner Water – It’s not uncommon for your city’s water supply to be rife with pollutants or chemicals. This doesn’t just mean “poor tasting” water; you’re simply not getting the cleanest water possible. However, you’re getting closer to the peak of freshness when you tap the water directly under your feet. Your well taps into groundwater, which is naturally filtered through layers of soil and rock. This natural filtration can result in cleaner, fresher-tasting water for your home.
- Greater Independence – So many individuals and families are looking for ways to ween themselves from overreliance on municipal systems. Solar and wind energy, for example, are two alternative energy resources that allow people to disconnect from “the grid.” Similar sentiments can be shared about well drilling. With a private well, you no longer depend on your city’s water supply. Such independence is invaluable in times of maintenance shutdowns, water restrictions, or emergencies.
- Long-Term Cost Savings – As is the case with so many alternative water or energy sources, there’s an initial investment to consider when installing a well on your property. However, it won’t take long for this investment to pay off! After dealing with the upfront cost of well drilling and pump installation, you have limitless access to a near-inexhaustible water supply. Access to your land’s water allows you to forgo water utility bills entirely!
What is Our Well Drilling Process?
Now that you understand the benefits of having a well on your property, what’s the process like? What will it take to access cleaner, more abundant water? Great news: the process is straightforward and consistently effective when you work with TCI Water Well & Pump Services. Our well drilling for Peoria, Bloomington, and the surrounding communities entails:
- 1. Surveying – We first survey your property to determine the ideal location for your well, considering factors like water table levels, soil composition, and accessibility.
- 2. Excavation – Once the site for your well is selected, we begin with initial trenching and excavation. Trenching is done to lay pipes and excavation to reach the groundwater underneath your home.
- 3. Drilling – After the excavation is complete, the actual drilling begins. We used the latest, most advanced equipment to bore through solid rock and access underground water reservoirs.
- 4. Casing & Screen Installation – We will install a casing and well screen next to protect your well from contamination and maintain its structural integrity. These components help filter out debris and prevent sediment from entering your water supply.
- 5. Well Development – During this phase, we flush out and remove fine sediments from the well, ensuring water can flow efficiently throughout your well and pump system.
- 6. Pump Installation – We install a high-quality pump to draw water from the well to the surface. Our clients can select from various pump options to suit your property’s unique needs.
- 7. Water Tank Installation – After installing a pump, we finally install a tank to help homeowners store and regulate their water supply. The tank ensures consistent water pressure and availability for everyday use.
- 8. Final Testing – We conduct thorough testing to confirm that your well is functioning optimally. This includes water quality testing and system checks to guarantee a dependable and safe water source.
