Do you need water in your company’s production process? Or maybe you are a farmer and need large quantities to irrigate your crops? Or simply you have a home for which you want an alternative source to the public network? All these situations have one thing in common: the need for a well-executed water drilling.

What does a properly executed water drilling depend on? From the quality of the water you will drink or use in production to the durability of the installation, everything depends on the professionalism of the team performing the work.

In today’s article, we talk about how to choose the right team for water drilling in Romania, analyzing essential criteria to consider and concrete questions to ask before signing the contract.

Why is it important to choose the right team for water drilling?

A professional water drilling means: correctly identifying the aquifer layer, choosing the right materials, installing the casing properly, and ensuring proper sealing. A qualified team will take accurate measurements, comply with legal standards, and deliver a work that can last for decades without issues.

The risks of working with unqualified teams

Although they may seem tempting due to an apparently lower cost, inexperienced teams can cause expensive long-term problems:

  • Incorrect well depth, with reduced water flow
  • Water contamination due to improper sealing
  • Old equipment, which can damage the aquifer layer
  • Failure to comply with legal standards, which can lead to fines and the obligation to redo the drilling.

 

Essential criteria for choosing a water drilling team

Before you “shake hands” with a certain team, first check if it meets the following criteria:

Experience and relevant previous projects

Look for a team specialized in water drilling with a solid portfolio. On the website of a serious company, you will be able to find previously completed projects. For example, on the Dromcons website, you will find both the list of drilling services (to see exactly how we can help you) and the portfolio of previous projects, including infrastructure works where highly complex drillings were carried out.

Equipment and modern technologies used

Modern technologies bring new functionalities that help deliver more accurate results and reduce execution time. The Dromcons team constantly invests in high-performance equipment. The latest example is the integration of the Massenza Drilling Rig MI5, a more powerful and versatile machine than its predecessor, the MI2. With it, greater depths can be reached and a wide range of applications can be handled.

Certifications, authorizations, and compliance with standards

A drilling must be carried out in accordance with current legislation, namely the Water Law no. 107/1996.
Make sure that the water drilling team or company holds the necessary authorizations and that the staff is trained to comply with environmental protection and public health regulations.

Execution time and respect for deadlines

Analyze previous projects to see execution times or ask directly about the estimated deadline and the conditions under which it could be exceeded.

Reviews and recommendations from previous clients

Google reviews or testimonials on the website will give you a clear picture of the quality of the services offered by that team. The experience of others is one of the most valuable indicators when you want to anticipate how the collaboration will go.

Key questions to ask before signing the contract

When talking to the potential team, make sure you get answers to the following questions:

  • What is the estimated depth for the water well drilling?
  • What type of equipment will you use?
  • Are there any additional costs besides those in the initial offer?
  • How long do you estimate the work will take?
  • What warranty do you offer for the work and for the water flow?
  • How do you handle post-drilling maintenance?


Advantages of a company with national coverage in water drilling

Having such a team by your side means benefiting from a solid partnership, based on vast experience and proven expertise in various contexts and projects at the national level. This way, it will be easier for the team to align with your requirements and guarantee an efficient and flexible collaboration. Thus, you benefit from:

Ability to intervene anywhere in Romania

A company with mobile teams and experience in different areas can quickly adapt to your project requirements, regardless of location:

  • water drilling Arad
  • water drilling Timiș
  • water drilling Bihor
  • or any other area of the country where you need water drilling services.


Own logistics and modern equipment fleet

At Dromcons, all geotechnical studies are carried out in our own laboratory, and modern equipment reduces execution times and increases work accuracy. This advantage means fewer interruptions and more reliable final results.

Case study – Drilling performed by Dromcons

A13 Highway – in partnership with MAKYOL ISTANBUL – BUCHAREST BRANCH

Dromcons played an important role in the infrastructure development planned by CNAIR for the Sibiu–Făgăraș highway. Within this project:

  • Complex geotechnical drillings were carried out, at depths of up to 80 m
  • Both disturbed and undisturbed samples were collected for testing
  • DPH and SPT tests were performed for soil analysis
  • Water samples were collected and analyzed


This project demonstrates Dromcons’ ability to deliver professional drilling in highly complex projects, meeting deadlines and technical standards.
