It is a legal requirement that all well drillers, pump installers, and water treatment contractors must be licensed. Too many homeowners have been exposed to shoddy work by inexperienced contractors. Check the contractors reputation and reliability from references such as neighbors who own wells. Check with the Better Business Bureau or the State of Tennessee Department of Water Supply. His success and reputation are built upon doing a good job for each customer. Check to see if he has the experience and knowledge to perform the job. Does he have modern well kept equipment? Will he provide me with a record of the work done? Does he have liability and worker’s compensation insurance to protect me while working on my property? Will he work under a written contract agreement? And will he work in a timely and professional manner? It is good if he is a member of his local State and National Associations of drilling contractors. This is evidence that he keeps abreast of all new developments by continually attending educational seminars.
