Well drilling is the main work: new homes, rural land, farms, commercial properties and wells that have failed. We also install pumps, set pressure tanks, run water lines from the wellhead and drill irrigation wells.

Core Well Drilling installs the complete pump system on new and existing wells. That covers the submersible pump, the pitless adapter, the pressure tank and switch, and the hookup at the house.

A well pressure tank holds water under pressure so the pump does not run every time a faucet opens. We install and replace pressure tanks across the Upstate, sized to the pump on your well.

We trench and lay the water line from the wellhead to the house or the barn. Old lines that leak or sit too shallow get replaced the same way.

Pacolet, SC · Since 2024 Our drillers bring more than 40 years of drilling experience. They are natives of the Upstate with extensive knowledge of the local geography and landscapes. Under the red clay here sits hard, fractured rock, and the water moves through the cracks in it.
Before we schedule a well we come out for a site survey. That visit helps pick the best spot to drill on your land. You then get a written estimate that quotes a minimum depth.
The state well standards call for casing set into bedrock, and that depth changes from lot to lot. That is why the estimate quotes a minimum and explains how the casing cost can move. We also set the pump and pressure tank and run the water line into the house. One company handles the job from the drill site to the faucet.

Core Well Drilling is licensed and bonded in South Carolina, and now licensed to drill in North Carolina as well. Every well is built to the state well standards. The well record is filed with the state when the job is done.
Our drillers bring more than 40 years of drilling experience. Two wells a mile apart can hit rock at very different depths. That experience shows in where we put the well.
We look at the property before the job is scheduled, so the well goes where it works best. The written estimate quotes a minimum depth, and estimates are free.

Based in Pacolet, SC, in Spartanburg County, we drill and service wells across Spartanburg, Cherokee, Union, Greenville, York, Chester and Laurens counties. Now licensed to drill in North Carolina, we also cover Cleveland, Rutherford, Polk, Henderson, Transylvania, Gaston, Mecklenburg and Union counties, about 80 to 90 miles from the shop.
From the first call to water at the house, here is how it goes.
Call (864) 768-5688 and tell us where the land is and what the water is for. If we are on a job, leave a message and we will get back to you.
We look at the property before the job is scheduled. Setbacks matter here, since the state well standards keep a well 75 feet from a septic tank or drainfield.
The estimate quotes a minimum depth for your well. Bedrock depth is not something anyone can see from the surface, so the estimate explains how casing cost can change.
The rig drills through soil and weathered rock into the bedrock below. Casing is set into that rock and grouted, then the well is developed until the water runs clear.
We size the pump to the depth and yield of your well. Then we set the drop pipe, the pitless adapter and the pressure tank. The water line runs to the house and the water comes on.
The questions Upstate homeowners, builders and farms ask us most. If yours is not here, call and we will answer it.
