Well Rehabilitation & Maintenance Services in Arizona

If your well isn’t producing water like it used to, or you’re noticing low water pressure, sediment buildup, or contamination, it may be time for professional well rehabilitation and maintenance. Over time, calcium, iron, and other mineral deposits can clog your well, reducing efficiency and water quality.

Restore, Maintain & Maximize the Performance of Your Well

At Western Drilling, we specialize in bringing wells back to life with advanced cleaning techniques, high-pressure jetting, and long-term maintenance plans. Whether you have a residential, agricultural, or commercial well, our experts ensure peak performance and reliability—so you never have to worry about your water supply.

Signs Your Well Needs Rehabilitation

Is Your Well Underperforming? Here’s What to Watch For.

🔹 Decreased Water Flow: If your well isn’t producing as much water as it once did, mineral buildup or clogged perforations could be restricting water movement.

🔹 Fluctuating Water Pressure: Inconsistent pressure may indicate a pump issue, screen blockage, or obstructions inside the well casing.

🔹 Cloudy or Discolored Water: A sign of sediment buildup or bacterial contamination, requiring professional cleaning and treatment.

🔹 Unusual Tastes or Smells: Sulfur-like odors, metallic tastes, or other changes in water quality can indicate contaminant intrusion.

🔹 Pump Cycling On & Off Too Often: If your pump is running more than usual, it may be struggling to draw water due to well inefficiencies.

Water Jetting – The Most Effective Cleaning Method

Western Drilling offers a powerful well cleaning method that goes far beyond traditional air jetting or brush-and-bail techniques. Our custom-built water jetting system uses up to 15,000 PSI of water pressure, combined with hydrochloric acid and corrosion inhibitors, to clean the casing, restore perforations, and stimulate the gravel pack and annular space.

This process is critical in Arizona, where calcium and salt buildup can completely block water flow over time.

Key Benefits of Water Jetting:

  • 💧 360° Cleaning Coverage – Reaches beyond the casing to clean perforations and gravel pack

  • 🧪 Chemical Agitation – Hydrochloric acid and corrosion inhibitors break down stubborn scale

  • 🛠 Custom Tooling – Developed and machined by Western Drilling specifically for Arizona wells

  • 📈 Increased Specific Capacity – Improves well performance and extends system lifespan

  • 🕒 Fast Process – Typically completed in 8–10 hours depending on depth and well condition

Western Drilling is one of only two companies in the Western U.S. equipped with this specialized well rehabilitation technology. Click the button below to learn more about our incredible process.

Other Ways We Restore Your Well’s Performance

1️⃣ Casing & Perforation Restoration

🔩 Over time, well casings can corrode, crack, or become clogged, reducing efficiency. Our precision perforation cleaning ensures:
Water flows freely through perforations without blockages
Casings remain structurally sound, preventing contamination
Maximum well productivity, restoring optimal yield

For severely damaged wells, we also provide well re-casing and structural reinforcements.

2️⃣ Well Development & Redevelopment

💧 If a well was not properly developed after drilling, or has lost productivity due to age, we use aggressive redevelopment techniques to increase water yield:
Air Surging & Overpumping – Removes fine materials blocking water flow
Chemical Treatments – Safe, effective cleaning agents to dissolve stubborn buildup
Brushing & Swabbing – Clears out debris from well screens and casing

3️⃣ Water Quality Testing & Well Disinfection

Bacteria & Contaminant Testing – Ensuring your well water is safe for use
Chlorination & Disinfection – Treating wells affected by bacterial contamination
Arsenic, Iron & Hardness Testing – Identifying potential health concerns

💡 Annual well maintenance and testing are key to long-term water quality and safety!

Preventative Well Maintenance Plans

Like any major investment, a well requires routine maintenance to avoid costly repairs. Our preventative well maintenance programs include:

🔹 Annual Flow Rate Testing – Ensures your well is producing at optimal levels
🔹 Pump & Motor Inspections – Checking for wear, overheating, or inefficiencies
🔹 Well Cleaning & Jetting – Preventative treatments to avoid mineral buildup
🔹 Pressure & Water Quality Testing – Catching issues before they become major problems
