For all those that have wells in the Wake & Johnston County areas, specifically around the border of those counties:

Whatever answers you know...

How deep is your well?
Has it ever gone dry?
Has it ever had to be re-drilled?

Thanks
Jesse

We border the two counties (at least as the crow flies). Think our well is about 400 feet deep. It has never gone dry, puhlease do not let this jinx it, nor has it needed to be re-drilled.

We're just over the Wake County line in Franklin County. We built last year, and our well is just over 300 ft. deep.

We're outside the city limits in Clayton and within 2 miles of the Wake Co. line.....

Don't know the answer to "how deep"...
But I can tell you (knockin' on wood, I don't wanna jinx myself here), never run dry and never been re-drilled.

Our house is about 15 years old, and we've lived here for 6, I know the figure for the depth is somewhere in our original deals paperwork, but I'm not even sure where thats boxed up at right now. My husband having grown up with well, specifically asked that of the previous owners, about having ever gone dry or been redrilled, so I remember those..just not the depth figure...sorry.

We live in Western Wake. Our well is about 200 feet deep and we have had it fail mechanically a few times (which is why I know the depth) and go dry a few times (including 2 weeks ago) in two decades. But we love our well and would not trade it for city water bills ever!
