How does your client determine if the private well will produce enough water for household needs?

Posted: July 7th, 2022

Prospective homeowners can obtain information about the well depth, pump capacity, and other information from the seller/current homeowner’s maintenance records or obtain well construction information (also known as a well log, a water well record, or a drilling report) from state records. 

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.
