Planning and constuction
A farm couple needs more water to expand their operation. But is their water supply adaquate? Do they need a new well? Even though almost every well in Alberta is drilled by a licensed driller, it's important that you, the homeowner, understand both the process and the causes of potential problems. After all, it's your future he's installing. Wells aren't cheap. Learn how to do it right, the first time.
