Had a new home built and Mel's Wells was hired to install a new well. Upon watching them install the well I noticed they were going shallow with the well, roughly 30'. I explained to Mel that the other well on this property as well as the neighbors had to go deeper in order to find good water without iron and other contaminants. While talking with Mel I was pretty much given minimal attention and a type of disregard and was explained that the water at 30' was just as good as deeper and that because of expense a deeper well wouldn't be installed. So now fast forward to the past year and I have water that turns brown when washing clothes with detergent, pool water from the well that turns brown when chlorine shock is applied and now have to pay for a deeper well to be drilled. If Mel would had at least listened to me and went deeper while he was here and I explained the situation to him about all the wells in this area maybe my water would be able to be used for washing clothes, drinking etc. Instead however I was brushed off and honestly Mel had a abrupt, rude attitude. I would not recommend him to anyone for a residential well because he only comes to do the bare minimum apparently regardless of water quality. I even had my water tested by the state of Delaware to confirm the continents. Mel's wells is a big NOPE for me! read more
