How does a homeowner get information on a water well on their property?

Posted: July 7th, 2022

There are a number of resources to get information about the location, testing and maintenance, or registration of a water well.

Since 1966, licensed water well drillers have been required to submit well reports that include well location, depth, and construction; water level; local geology; names of driller and original owner to the State of Texas.

Reports for wells drilled from 1966 until February 2001 can be accessed online at TCEQ Water Well Report Viewer

Well reports from February 2001 and later can be found in the Texas Well Report Submission and Retrieval System.

In some cases, your client may be able to contact the individual who constructed the well or may be able to find more information by searching the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation (TDLR) well reports.
