Flow testsBy Holmes Water Wells

Flow tests are extremely important when purchasing a rural property with a well. This test is done to confirm that the well produces a sufficient amount of water for the home. It should help determine if there are problems with the core itself, pump, storage tank, or other equipment.

This is an inexpensive test, but one that should be done by a licensed contractor with the Ministry of Environment. Holmes Water Wells is able to perform these tests for your next home purchase, and we service all forms of water wells, well pumps, and pressure systems.

Under Section 50 of the Water Sustainability Act, only licensed well drillers or pump installers can conduct these tests.

Sean was super amazing and helped us out of a jam. The seller mispresented the well and left us with having to replace it within one month of our closing. Shawn generously brought us water when we had none, without us even asking him to. His crew drilled us another well and we were very happy with their work. We definitely recommend this company with raving review. Thanks to the crew for their diligent and honest work.

These guys are the best. I had a low flow well. From the time I called to the time they finished was three days. Excellent response time! On time on budget. Doesn’t get better than that

We had a 80+ year old well that became non productive.Decided on a new well. Called and spoke with Sean. He was upfront and honest about timelines as the business was busy. We where looking at 12 weeks before a new well could be drilled. A week or so later, Sean messaged early in the morning advising of a cancellation and he could drill well that day. They came that day and did the well over 2 days. New well has great recovery. Sean was professional and honest. His crew where the same. Great work & I can’t thank you enough.

Sean was great to deal with. He spent a good chunk of the morning working on my well (issues with volume). Since then it's been working great! Could use the hose (which I haven't be able to use in years)! Very polite, and tentative- made sure to explain things afterwards. Would recommend!
