Do you have an old or disused domestic well on your property? If so, we can renovate it and turn it into the fully-functioning water source it was originally intended to be. Here at Anglian Pumping Services, we are able to remove mineral deposits and other materials that may be affecting the capacity and water quality of your well. This process has the power to restore your well to its original state, meaning that you’ll be able to use it as a source of water.
But why should you have your old well renovated and restored to working order? Are there any advantages to having an old, working well on your property? The answer is ‘yes’. We believe that having an old-fashioned but fully-operational well offers a variety of benefits, which we’ll discuss in today’s blog.
1. Reducing your dependence on the main national water supply
Like any form of independent water supply, a renovated well can help reduce your dependence on water companies and the mainstream water supply. This can obviously save you money on your water bill. Just as importantly, it can help you cope with droughts that affect the nation’s main water supply. Water security is increasingly important here in Britain, due to the fact that droughts and water shortages have become more common in recent years. Renovating a pre-existing well is one of the easiest ways to increase your personal water security. After all, restoring an old well to working order means you don’t have to establish a new water supply (for example, by having a new borehole drilled).
2. Improving the value of your property
Old fashioned wells have an undeniable aesthetic appeal and can, therefore, add value to your property. A functional well obviously adds more value than a disused one, however. Renovating a well turns from a decorative feature into one that is both practical and beautiful. You might be surprised at how much of an impact this can have on your property’s value.
3. Limiting your environmental impact
Using well water is better for the environment than using water from the main national supply. After all, the main water supply is treated with a wide variety of chemicals that can damage the environment. In contrast, well water is completely natural. Renovating an old well to access its water gives you a chance to reduce your ecological impact.
