Water wells andhydrogeological drilling

We drill to 250 metres for farms, industrial plants and municipal waterworks. We prepare the drilling design, the as-built documentation and the water permit report ourselves, or drill to a design you already have.

We have worked across northern Poland since 1983.

Who we drill for

Farms

Wells for irrigating crops and watering livestock, sized to what the season demands.

  • wells of higher yield
  • pumps matched to irrigation
  • documentation for grant applications

Industrial plants

Water for the plant where the mains connection falls short, or where there is none.

  • a well sized to the daily draw
  • water permit and its supporting report
  • pump service and replacement

Municipalities and waterworks

Boreholes on municipal intakes, standby wells, decommissioning of old boreholes and the documentation that goes with the work.

  • work under public procurement
  • hydrogeological documentation and permit reports
  • rehabilitation and decommissioning

What we do

Drilling

  • Deep water wells

    Wells for drinking water and for irrigation, from farm supplies to municipal intakes.

  • Exploratory drilling

    Exploratory and test-production boreholes with yield tests and water analysis.

  • Percussion drilling

    The percussion method where the ground or the access leaves no other option.

A working well

  • Wellhead chambers and connections

    Wellhead chamber, pipework to the building or to the mains, power supply and controls.

  • Fitting and replacing submersible pumps

    Pump matched to the yield of the well, fitted, replaced and serviced.

Existing boreholes and documentation

  • Well rehabilitation and decommissioning

    We bring the yield back to old wells and decommission spent boreholes as the regulations require.

  • Hydrogeological documentation and designs

    Drilling designs, as-built documentation, water permit reports and notifications.

How a job runs

  1. 1

    The call

    You give the location and what the water is for. That alone usually tells us what ground to expect in the area.

  2. 2

    Conditions on site

    We check the access, the spot for the borehole and what is known about the aquifers nearby. The price follows from that.

  3. 3

    Drilling

    The rig comes in. We drill the borehole, set the screen, run development pumping and a yield test, then build the wellhead chamber and fit the pump.

  4. 4

    Documentation

    You get the as-built documentation and, where it is needed, the notification or the water permit report.

What it costs

We give no price up front. It comes from the depth the water sits at, the layers to drill through, the diameter of the borehole and the access for the rig. Two villages apart, a well of the same yield can be twice as deep.

Give us the location and what the water is for. We will say what to expect in that area and what goes into the cost. The price comes once we have seen the site.

Permits in Poland, 2026 and 2027

A well down to 30 metres, drawing up to 5 m³ a day for your own use, needs no water permit. You report it to Wody Polskie, the national water authority, within 14 days of completion.

A deeper borehole or a larger draw needs a water permit. We prepare the documentation ourselves, so you do not have to find a hydrogeologist.

A well that nobody ever reported carries no legalisation fee if you report it before 30 September 2027.

We will tell you what has to be reported

Call with the depth of the well and how it is used. We will say whether a notification covers it or a water permit report is needed.
