Independent Drilling

Very well. Other companies wanted to replace the entire pump and do $8000 of work. Independent came and checked my panel and replaced it for a few hundred bucks. Honest, dependable and professional. I highly recommend them.

Independent Drilling did a fantastic job of diagnosing and fixing the issue. They got there quickly and did a really nice job of explaining the problem and what it was going to take to fix it. We were prepared for the worst and were very relieved that it was a relatively minor problem. This company is honest and only does the work that needs to be done. Not something that always happens these days. I'll call them again next time I have pump problems and will recommend them to everyone.

Independent Drilling is always great to work with. They were out within days after I called them to replace my well pump and they always do a great job. I would recommend this business to anyone!

Our experience with Independent Drilling was truly remarkable. My wife went to a sink in our house this afternoon to find that we had ZERO water pressure, and the pump for the well was not running. Expecting the worst, we called Independent Drilling to come take a look. They're based in Blackfoot, and we live in Rexburg, but were willing to come up and take a look. The guy in the office said someone on his crew should be back in the office in about 30 minutes, and that he would call me back when he knew when the tech could make it up to see us. In about 20 minutes the tech called me from Idaho Falls asking some questions about the pump size, and the like. When I went into our utility room to check the pump specs, I bumped a wire, causing a spark in some wiring. At that, the pump kicked on and we had water again. When I called the tech to report on the pump and the sparking incident, he informed me that this was a simple issue with the pressure switch contacts. Even though he described the problem as basic, and very easy to remedy, I told him I was inclined to have him come up and take a look at everything anyway. He said that he was more than willing to come up and fix the issue for me, but that the repair was well within my capabilities, and he would feel bad charging for something so simple. At this, he gave me a full, detailed description about how to clean the contacts on the pressure switch, where I could buy a new pressure switch, which type I should buy, how to install the new pressure switch, and how to make certain that our pressure tank had the appropriate amount of air pressure to maximize water delivery and pump longevity. At the end of the day, this guy could have easy told me that he needed to come up and replace the whole system, and I would have been none the wiser. I feel confident doing all of my own home maintenance, but I was completely unfamiliar with well-pump systems, as we only transplanted ourselves to the country from the cushy suburbs recently. Not only did this guy explain how to keep the system up and running at its greatest efficiency myself, he saved me the cost of a house call and plus parts and labor. I cannot say enough good about Independent drilling, and their customer service. I will call them for any future problems I might encounter, and will encourage all of my friends and neighbors to do likewise.

We were having a house built on some land we had purchased. Hearing about the good reviews on Independent Well Drilling, a decision was made to make contact. Independent Well talked to us about the costs, location and after agreeing to the work, they then tested the area where the well is to be placed ( test to see if drilling can be done) but before that, The Independent Well Drilling Employee showed up promptly, was professional, friendly and courteous. Right away he went to work on the job to be done after agreeing to the location of the well. He had talked to us about the spot to be drilled, about the layers of the rock and sand, etc, he ran in to while drilling the test, but If there was an issue he would let us know. thankfully there was only one issue, Lava Rock.. he was able to get past it after constant drilling. The Gentleman had to take 2 days. (He had to drill through some rough patches.) We didn't mind that since it was expected to run in to lava rock and was also included on the estimated costs ( a just in case costs). Our area is notorious for the deep running lava rock and Independent has placed many wells around and in the area, (lots of cattle and land farmers) After drilling and placing the pipe and motor and etc, down and on top of the hole.( I don't know all the jargon sorry,lol) The piping was also laid in the trench towards the house and pluming placed. so needless to say he did a wonderful job. Independent Well Drilling staff knew what they were doing and knew the work inside and out. Note Here: The work was done Years ago and still going strong, We had only one issue and that was 10 years after the work, ( the motor went out) once called, someone showed up promptly and fixed the issue. I also don't remember how much we spent on the initial work, I do remember that it was not too pricey but acceptable. Independent Well Drilling has been around for years, and with such superb work, friendly staff, answered all questions, professionalism, and fair pricing/costs they have given us, we would recommend Independent Well Drilling to anyone and everyone. We had also worked with the office out of Blackfoot, Idaho

Independent Drilling is awesome! They are fast, efficient, and the two young men that installed the new pressure tank were very personable! They are a very reliable business!
