Water Well Decommissioning in B.C. & Yukon

Whether you have a bored well or a drilled well, if it is no longer in use, contact Double D Drilling Ltd. in Terrace to fill it in and seal it to protect the groundwater and any people or animals wandering on your property. We have over 40 years of experience with water well decommissioning throughout B.C. and the Yukon.

Our Decommissioning Process

We take safety seriously and follow all protocols and precautions to ensure that your decommissioned well will not allow surface contamination to enter the groundwater supply. To this end, before beginning the decommissioning process, we will:

discuss the well’s history with you
verify information about the well and examine it
disconnect the power to all pump equipment and remove it
determine the best type of materials to use to fill and seal the well
