Sedimentary layers and glacial deposits often allow moderate-depth wells, but casing and local aquifers vary.
Usually moderateWDF base planning range across the published 50–200-foot depth band. Confirm whether the quote includes the pump, pressure tank, electrical work, treatment and difficult-access charges.
The range is calculated from government well records or depth guidance and the ground conditions commonly encountered in the area. It is not a published government price and it cannot predict whether a specific bore will be dry, unusually deep or difficult to reach.
Ask every bidder for one complete-system total. It should identify drilling, casing, grouting, pump, pressure tank, electrical work, permit or filing charges, water testing and restoration separately.

WDF’s 2026 planning range is C$1,800–C$11,000 CAD. WDF base planning range across the published 50–200-foot depth band. Confirm whether the quote includes the pump, pressure tank, electrical work, treatment and difficult-access charges.
The reference point used here is about 50–200 ft. A nearby completion record is more useful than a broad average, and only drilling confirms the final depth and yield.

Compare drilling, casing, grout, pump, pressure tank, electrical work, permit or filing fees, yield testing, disinfection, laboratory testing, restoration, over-depth pricing and dry-hole terms on separate lines.
Depth, licensing and permit statements are checked against government records. Cost figures are WDF planning estimates derived from those records and the published 2026 cost model.
