Wells
  • A well is a hole in the ground!
  • Water exists in great quantity under the earth.
  • A modern well is dug by machine and is typically 100 to 200 feet deep.
  • A pump is dropped down the well and is suspended in the well water.
  • The pump pushes the water into a pressure tank that is typically installed in the basement.
  • The pressure tank holds the water pressure at reasonable levels without the pump starting each time water is used.
  • Wells typically cost from $3,000 to $4,000.

Septic Systems

  • A septic system is an on-site sewage disposal system. There are several types, but they can be broadly divided into two types:
    • In-ground conventional systems and
    • above-ground sand mound systems
  • An inspection is made of the soil and a permit is issued.
  • 90% of the permits issued are for sand mound systems.

Costs

  • Conventional systems--$3,500 to $4,500
  • Sand mounds--$6,000 to $11,000
  • Permits, labor and backhoe costs will be about $750
  • Septic system engineering designs cost $100 to $1,000
