Just purchased some property in Seminole county. Going to need to drill a water well. Any suggestions on someone to drill it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
There is a guy in Luther, JB waterwell or something like that, I couldn't say enough good things about him.
We used Alan and Marty Sweeney at our place in okfuskee County. No problems.
Check with the local conservation district, they should have a list of well drillers.
Fields-Youngblood in Luther, I’ve known Glen since we were kids in the fifties.
I paid $10 per foot for Don Strawn to drill me a well but now with Covid and Bidenflation, it’s $28.00 per foot! And I need another well drilled too. It cost me around $1,600.00 in 2010 for 160 ft but now it’ll cost close to $5,000.00. Strawn is now out of business but check around, Strawn wells had a habit of pumping sand and that’s what my problem is with the well he drilled for me. See if you can find honest reviews.

Glen passed away. I believe a son in law is maybe running the rig. Sad to hear people ever using Strawn.

I knew Glen passed away, his son-in-law is doing the drilling now. As a kid, Glen used to do all sorts of things, one he and his brothers greased the RR tracks and watched the train struggle to go up a grade. He was always trying to invent something.
I knew him well. His brother Paul and I used to restore old Tractors. He was/is a top grade welder/machinist. Every time Glen came around he always wanted to pick my brain about Water Wells and Underground Formations. Good people.
