Pumps Sized for the Busiest Hour
Commercial well pump installation is matched to peak demand, not the average day. A campground on a July Saturday or a dairy at milking time sets the number. Our Dousman pump replacement work follows the same sizing.
Commercial well drilling Dousman farms, shops and churches count on starts from our own yard on Herr Road, the road that carries the family name. Herr Well Drilling has drilled, serviced and sealed wells out of this shop since 1964, and the businesses around the village are the ones we know best.
We work Monday through Friday, 8 to 5. Calls get returned within 24 hours and quotes go out in 24 to 48.
Step outside the village and almost every business is on its own well. Shops along Highway 18 and Highway 67, event barns, churches, campgrounds near the Kettle Moraine, and the farms in between all need water that keeps up on their busiest day. Commercial water well drilling for those properties usually means a bigger hole than a house well, often 8 to 24 inches across, drilled deeper to reach more water. Light industrial well drilling for shops in the area follows the same plan.

A well, or group of wells on one property, that can pump more than 100,000 gallons a day is a high capacity well in Wisconsin. That is often 70 gallons a minute or more. High capacity well installation needs DNR approval first, and the review looks hard at nearby lakes, streams and wetlands. Around Dousman that means the Bark River and the low ground along it, so we plan the siting and the paperwork together.
Most of the high capacity work we do here is for irrigation and livestock. Our farm and irrigation wells in Dousman page covers that side. For a commercial well drilling Dousman project of any size, we pull the state records for nearby wells before we quote, so depth and yield estimates come from real holes.

Commercial well pump repair covers switches, controls, wiring and motors. We are not a 24-hour shop, so for emergency pump repair call early in the business day. See our well pump repair in Dousman for details.
Properties with a shop, a barn and an office often need more tank capacity than one pressure tank can give. We size storage so the pump is not starting every few minutes.
A well that serves the public, like a church, restaurant or campground, counts as a public water system in Wisconsin and has its own sampling schedule. A commercial well inspection checks the casing, cap, pump, controls and storage, and lines up with the lab sampling the state expects.
Older commercial wells lose output to mineral scale and sediment. Well rehabilitation can bring much of it back, as our Dousman well development page explains. Wells a property no longer uses need well abandonment: equipment pulled, the hole grouted bottom to top, and the state report filed. Routine visits go through our water well service in Dousman.

John Herr Sr. bought the first rig in 1964. John Jr. and Marcia incorporated in 1969, Theresa and Greg Domres ran it after them, and their children Nathan, Adam, DJ and Kendel own it now. We keep our own rigs running in our own shop, including older equipment most outfits would have scrapped, and we are licensed by the Wisconsin DNR and fully insured.
That is why commercial well drilling Dousman owners book with us is rarely a one-time job. We come back for the pump, the tank and the inspection. Compare us with any commercial well contractors you like; you will not find a shorter drive. Our Dousman well drilling contractor page covers the rest. A commercial well drilling near me search from a neighboring town works too. We also drill commercial wells in Wales and business wells around Oconomowoc.
