Serving Union City, IN
Trusted Irrigation Well Drilling in Union City, IN
Irrigation wells for Randolph and Darke County farms, drilled from our own office just outside Union City.
Union City is two towns, one in Indiana and one in Ohio, split by State Line Street. Our office sits just outside the Indiana side, so irrigation well drilling Union City farms need is about as close to home as our work gets. Wiley Well Drilling has drilled wells from here since April 1945.
The farm ground on both sides of the line is the same flat, tiled corn and bean country. Our farm irrigation wells page explains how a well for that ground is built.
Irrigation Well Drilling in Union City on Both Sides of the State Line
A field on the Indiana side and one a quarter mile east in Darke County can sit over the same gravel, but they answer to different states. Irrigation well drilling Union City customers ask for gets planned with that in mind: Indiana registration rules on one side, Ohio rules on the other. We drill in both every week.
Reading the Cuttings Before Setting a High Capacity Well
Glacial till around Union City is mostly clay with pockets of sand and gravel. What comes up out of the hole tells us where those pockets are and whether they will feed a high capacity well. That is where agricultural well drilling gets decided, at the rig, by people who have watched cuttings from this county for decades.
Our new well drilling page walks through the rest of the build.
Cuttings show us what the ground is made of. High-Capacity Irrigation Well Installation and Pump Setting
High-Capacity Irrigation Well Installation covers casing, screen, and the irrigation well pump as one job. After the screen goes in, Irrigation Well Development clears fine sand out so the pump runs clean. Then we set the pump and test at your planned rate. Our pump service crew is the same one that comes back later.
Livestock and Irrigation Water From One Randolph County Well
Plenty of Union City farms run cattle or hogs along with crops. Sometimes one well can carry both. Sometimes it should not. When a well serves a barn and the house too, a pressure tank system keeps the house from losing pressure every time a pivot or waterer kicks on.
Irrigation Well Rehabilitation and Repair Close to Our Shop
When an older irrigation well loses yield, Irrigation Well Rehabilitation can win a lot of it back. We pull the pump, clean and treat the screen, and retest. Our well cleaning service and well diagnosis work cover the steps, and a Union City job means a short trip for the crew.

Union City FAQs
Union City Irrigation Well Questions
Which State's Rules Apply to My Union City Irrigation Well?
The state the well sits in. Indiana asks owners of wells able to pump 100,000 gallons a day or more to register with the Indiana DNR, and Ohio has a similar registration with the Ohio DNR. We drill on both sides and can tell you which one applies.
How Quickly Can You Get to a Union City Farm?
Usually fast. Our office is right outside town. Emergency well and pump work runs 24 hours a day.
Is There Enough Water Under Randolph County for Irrigation?
In many spots, yes, but the sand and gravel is patchy in the glacial till. A test hole tells us before you pay for a full-size well.
Can One Well Run My Pivot and My Livestock Waterers?
Sometimes. It depends on the well's tested yield and your peak demand. If the numbers do not work, a separate livestock well is often the better buy.
What Is Well Development and Do I Need It?
Development pulls fine sand away from the screen after drilling so the well runs clean at full rate. Every irrigation well we drill gets it.
Can You Bring Back an Old Irrigation Well?
If the casing and screen are sound, cleaning and treatment often restore a good share of lost yield. We retest so you see the result.
How Soon Will I Get a Price?
We provide a quotation within 24 hours on any irrigation well drilling Union City job. Field location, acres, and system type are all we need to start.
When Should I Book Irrigation Drilling Around Union City?
