“Dan and his team consistently provide excellent service. They are knowledgeable, courteous, and efficient. I highly recommend them for any needs, ranging from new well construction to routine maintenance. I have relied on Thompson for all my water supply and well-related issues for the past 10 to 15 years, and he has assisted me numerous times.”

“We had a failure in our well and we were looking for a local source to help us out. I contacted Thompson and they were able to come out the same day. I met Dan and explained what I had done so far. We worked on the problem together and Dan came up with a plan. He needed to come back out the following day and we were up and running that afternoon. The overall experience was educational and entertaining at the same time, although we encountered some roadblocks along the way we were able to come up with a solution and the crisis was averted! Thank you again for your time and expertise to resolve our well issue.”

“It is refreshing to find a knowledgeable, professional, honest and reliable company. I needed a pressure tank and well pump to replace my 27 year old system. Job was quoted and replaced within a week. Montana treated me like a valued customer ensuring I understood my system while he stayed focused on the job. I couldn’t be happier with choosing Thompson Well Drilling. I would highly recommend giving them a call for your Well needs. Also, a shout out to Troy !! Nice job guys and Thank you. Mike”
