Tired of relying on municipal water connections & expensive water tankers?
Your land holds more than soil and stones — it holds the promise of life itself. Through open well digging, you tap into a natural, lasting source of life — water that belongs to you and your land. It’s a bond between earth and water, written by your own hands.”
Why Choose an Open Well?
Savings
Imagine having your very own source of water in your own backyard,. Open wells offer a high rate of return by going as close as possible to completely eliminating monthly water bills.
No Water Tankers
What are most of us forced to do when there is a shortage of water? We call a private water supplier don’t we? A well maintained open well can help you meet most of your household’s need for water, dramatically reducing your need for buying water from other sources, especially the expensive private water companies.
Increased Property Value
In this era of erratic weather patterns, where water supply also has its ebbs and flows, having a source of self sustained eco friendly water supply, dramatically increases the property value.
Potentially Better Quality Water
Mother Nature has its own ways of protecting and nourishing us. Soil and rocks are great natural filters and this naturally cleansed water free from chemicals is what you would have access when you have your own open well. (While, most wells offer pure ground water, it is always advisable to consider testing your water to be safe for drinking purposes)

Open Wells Vs Bore Wells
At first, both sound similar, both borewells and open wells seem to extract water from beneath the land, but are they the same and offer the same benefits? Here are some of the most common aspects to keep in mind, before making a choice between an open well and a borewell.
Initial Cost
Every drop counts, so does every rupee. Which one of the two is a better investment?
Open Wells - Low Initial Cost
A shallower dig can lead to deeper savings—open wells prove that less can cost less.
Borewells - High Initial Cost
Borewells might reach the depths of the earth, but they’ll also dive deep into your bank account.
Water Source and Recharge
While both borewells and open wells serve as gateways to groundwater, the origins of their water are worlds apart.
Open Wells - Shallow Depth
Tap into groundwater at shallow depths, recharges easily
Borewells - Deep
Access deep aquifers and do not recharge easily; excessive use can lead to faster depletion of groundwater. This is the reason why borewells dry up far sooner as compared to open wells
Water Quality and Lifespan
Just because both forms access water from beneath the ground, does it mean they are exactly similiar?
Open Wells - Long Lasting
Open wells usually last longer, since they access shallower waters. Water which is purified naturally between the rocks, so even the quality tends to be far better.
Borewells - Unstable
Borewells access water that are far deeper, so they don't get replenished easily and waters at this depth contain more chemicals This is the reason why borewells dry up far sooner as compared to open wells and the water tastes salty due to the chemicals.

Frequently Asked Questions
Some of the questions we get asked the most.
The depth usually depends on the levels of the water table. Typically, the depth is around 30 to 40 feet. The deepest open wells go as deep as 50 – 60 feet.
Again, it depends of the depth of the well. We can dig close to 20 feet or more in a single day. So, depending on the planned depth, you can expect your well to be completed in 3 – 4 days.
The well is secured with 4 to 5 feet wide concrete rings.
Yes, a properly designed and maintained open well can meet most or even all of a household’s water needs. When combined with rainwater harvesting, it can significantly reduce or eliminate dependence on tanker water.
Always get the water tested first. Traditionally, water from open wells is what most households had and it was used for all purposes in the household including drinking. However, with changing times, there can be chances that the water is perfectly fine to use for other purposes such as washing and bathing, but it may or may not be safe for drinking. So we always suggest that the water be tested first before consumption
The primary difference lies in diameter and depth. An open well (or “dug well”) is typically a large-diameter hole (often 3 to 10 feet wide) dug manually or with machinery until it hits the water table. A borewell is much narrower (usually 4 to 6 inches) and is drilled deep into the ground to reach confined aquifers. Open wells act as their own storage reservoir, allowing water to seep in slowly over a large surface area.
Open wells are often more sustainable than borewells because they recharge naturally through rainwater and surface percolation. They also have a longer lifespan and are less likely to run dry compared to deep borewells, especially in areas with good rainfall.
Absolutely! In fact, open wells are excellent structures for groundwater recharge. By directing filtered rooftop rainwater into the well, you can “recharge” the local aquifer. This not only improves the water level in your own well but also helps raise the water table for the entire neighborhood.
