Gene Walker started drilling water wells in Idaho in 1947, and we are proud to continue his tradition of quality well drilling. We want our customers get as much water as they need for the lifetime of their system. We take our responsibility to our customers seriously. We currently use hand sanitizer between jobs to clean up.
We're implementing new measures for our onsite technicians to clean and sanitize their tools and equipment. Our staff is fully trained on HAZWOPR (hazardous waste handling). Dealing with a pandemic is part of that training. We can even suit up in full haz-mat gear if we need to (but this situation probably doesn't require it).

About
Report
Gene Walker left Idaho to drill for Nevada gold at the age of 17. After returning to Idaho, he realized that his home state had a more precious resource: water. Gene founded Walker Water Systems in 1947 and drilled wells throughout the Magic and Wood River Valleys. In fact, he drilled and developed most of the Artesian wells throughout the Wood River Valley.
Pumps and Water Systems
Report
According to Mark Koffer, "A pump is a device that tricks the water into thinking that its source is higher than its destination." In other words, it pushes the water out of the well and into the house. The water system is actually composed of several parts. There's the pump and motor which hang down the well on a column of pipe and wire.
Drilling
Report
If your well caves in, even just a little, it can cause a lot of expensive problems. A caved-in well can keep a technician from getting a dead pump out to replace it. That means more time pulling the pump, or possibly even drilling a new well, and it costs you a lot more money. Sometimes if a well caves in at the bottom, it can keep you from setting the pump deeper.
