COMPANY HISTORY Founded in the early 1980s as a small well drilling operation, Bedford Well Drilling has grown to include a full line of environmental drilling, geothermal, and pump installation services. Our office is based out of Bedford, Virginia and we are licensed to operate in Virginia, West Virginia, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Kentucky and Tennessee. Bedford Well Drilling is With our years of service across the Mid-Atlantic, we know the area and the people. Nothing is more important to us than customer satisfaction. OUR EXPERIENCE Since the first well was drilled in 1983, the focus has always been making sure the customer is getting the highest quality service for the best possible price. We take pride in our reputation for high-quality work, honesty and professionalism. Just ask around. OUR TECHNOLOGY We maintain a fleet of modern drill rigs capable of taking on most any environmental challenge. From the area’s mountainous terrain, to valleys, our rigs are designed to get the job done right, and efficiently, the first time. OUR TEAM Every project is completed by our OSHA/MSHA and National Groudwater Association trained and certified drillers and installers. We are licensed and bonded.

"Bedford drilled a new well for me about a year and half ago, the only positives i can say is i do have water and the new lady in the office actually now answers the phone or responds to you. Its the craziest thing, the phone rings and she actually picks it up and talks to you. Its crazy. The first year you could only reach them by email or text, no one answered the phone. You left a voicemail and they would decide whether or not to call you. I've spent a year and half trying to get them to correct sloppy hookup work they left me with. I think the problem was with the prior office staff dropping the ball, but i shouldn't have pay for someone elses incompetence. Since week one I notified them of an issue and was completely ignored for months. At first they were busy on other jobs, told me they would have one of the guys call me which never happened. Then months later they told me for them to come correct the issue i had pay a service fee and open ended labor costs for something that has been ongoing since the install. Basically give them a blank check again, nope ive been down that road with them before. Service fees and labor fees should be charged for something that was beyond their control, not for sloppy workmanship. I had to spend months on a waiting list and ipaid almost $16k. The sad thing is both are probably simple fixes for them. Hire anyone else but them for the hookup, Catron, Sublette, Walkers, anyone else but Bedford for the hookup. Maybe the owner will respond to me directly when he reads this, not leave me dealing with an in-between person, honestly by now he should have called me personally. He has my number"

We offer plumbing repairs also drain and sewer line cleaning. We offer drain cleaning starting as low as $49.95 . We save you time and money we offer prices that others just can't compete with.

"I called this company bc it had good reviews & affordable price . They robed me I had a pump that need replaced cost would have been 600.00 total . Worker put new wire in & put through the pipe I had existing to the well . I asked if I pay cash can I get a discount ? I had lost my job 2 weeks ago from restructuring . I have no income coming in . After I was told $2600.00 I gave the worker $1300. Cash & he left for over 4 hours before showing up with the new parts. I called the owner again & explained to him my position I couldn’t help but cry & quote he tells me I got you . I thought ok he will give me some discount . NOT one penny did he go down . I had a total bill of $2600.00 . Wow glad he had my back ?! It would have been 4000.00 . I’ve talked to one’s professional in this business he actually raped me for what little was done & the price he got from me . Please beware women or anyone this company is rip off ! No one call him for any work . He deserves what he gets from being a liar & over charging . I have lots of friends & I will be telling all I know to tell all they know about this owner ."

Wells and Pumps questions, answered by experts

A well pressure tank is located between the well and the well pump, and it stores your water under pressure so that the well pump can eventually do its job. The well pump is activated whenever you turn a faucet on—it pulls the water from the tank into your home. Both are vital parts of a complete well water system.

Having a well means that a household’s water supply, including water that comes through faucets, showerheads, and appliances, is supplied through a private source rather than from a city. The well pulls fresh water from an underground water supply, such as an aquifer, and the well pump pushes the water from the well to your household.

Many contractors offer warranties for parts and labor. Confirm terms before hiring.

The cost to drill a well varies, but the national average is around $5,500 for a 150-foot well. However, prices can vary significantly based on location, well depth, and other factors, so it's best to research potential fees to get a more accurate cost assessment for your area.

A professional well inspection takes between one and three hours. This includes the time it takes for the inspector to visually check the condition of your well, test its equipment, and collect water for testing. After the pro sends the water samples to the lab, you can expect to receive the results in three to 10 days.
