Real estate well inspections that document the well before you close

A real estate well inspection is a documented evaluation of a property's water well, ordered when a home is being bought, sold, or financed. We run a flow and yield test to measure how many gallons per minute the well delivers under load, pull a water sample and send it to a certified lab, and inspect the condition of the pump, pressure tank, wellhead, casing, and electrical controls. Everything we find goes into one clear written report that the buyer, seller, realtor, or lender can rely on before closing.

On a Hill Country property, the well is the water supply, there is no city line to fall back on, so its condition directly affects what the home is worth and whether a sale moves forward. Many lenders and buyers want the well documented in writing before they commit, and a vague or missing report can stall a closing. Our limestone and karst geology also means flow and water quality vary from one property to the next, so a real inspection with a lab sample tells you what you are actually buying rather than what the listing assumes.

TR Drilling & Service has worked on Hill Country wells since 1985, and the same licensed and insured crew that drills, repairs, and maintains wells across this region performs these inspections. That means the person writing your report knows what healthy local equipment and output look like and can tell a normal reading from a warning sign. If the inspection turns up an issue, we can walk you through repair options, and we are happy to answer questions before you buy a home with a well. Reach us anytime through our contact page.

What your inspection report covers

• Flow and yield test We measure how many gallons per minute the well produces under load so you know the property's real water supply.
• Certified lab water sample We collect a sample and send it to a certified lab so the water quality results are documented and credible.
• Full equipment check We inspect the pump, pressure tank, wellhead, casing, and electrical controls for condition and safety.
• A clear written report Everything is summarized in writing that the buyer, seller, realtor, or lender can use to make a decision.
• Built for the transaction This is a report-focused inspection for a sale or loan, not a routine maintenance visit, so it answers the questions a closing actually asks.
