how much does it cost for a drilled well in maine
That estimate seems extremely high, but I'm sure that the actual costs will depend greatly on the local market situation and geology. Here in northern Maine, my well was around $9000.00 complete. This is a 275 ft. deep well drilled primarily in rock with bedrock being struck at approximately 35ft depth.
I am not a mathematician, but $9000 divided by the depth, 275 ft, equals approx $33 per foot, not $100. That includes the cost of the pump, pressure tank, piping to house, wiring to and from house, all labor, and well test/water test. So the per foot cost of drilling is probably closer to $20. $100.00 per foot <br />That estimate seems extremely high, but I'm sure that the actual costs will depend greatly on the local market situation and geology.
