About AWS Well

They offer a notably broad range of services, combining septic work, well drilling, and irrigation into one operation, which is a practical setup for rural Nebraska properties that often need all three. No rating data is currently available, making direct conversation with the company and local references important before booking. Rural properties in Saunders County frequently rely on private wells and septic systems together, so having one contractor who understands both systems is genuinely useful.

Frequently Asked Questions

How far should a septic system be located from a private well in Nebraska?
Nebraska regulations require a minimum setback of 50 feet between a septic tank and a private well, with drain fields needing to be even further depending on the system type and local conditions. Some counties enforce stricter requirements, so checking with your local health department is important. Proper separation protects your drinking water from contamination.
Can I install a well and septic system at the same time on a new property?
Yes, and doing both together is often more efficient since the contractor can coordinate placement to meet all required setbacks in a single site plan. It also means one permit process and one mobilization of equipment instead of two separate projects. AWS Well's combined capability makes this a natural fit for new rural builds in the Mead area.
How do I know if my well water is being affected by my septic system?
Signs include changes in water taste or odor, cloudy appearance, or illness among household members. The only reliable way to know for sure is to have your well water tested for coliform bacteria and nitrates, which are the contaminants most associated with septic leakage. Annual water testing is a good practice for any private well owner.
Does irrigation water use affect my septic system's performance?
Irrigation doesn't directly interact with the septic system unless you're watering heavily over the drain field, which can saturate the soil and reduce its ability to absorb effluent. Keep irrigation zones away from the drain field area. If you're on a private well, heavy irrigation use can also affect water pressure and pump performance, which is worth discussing with your contractor.
What permits are required for well drilling in Saunders County, Nebraska?
Well drilling in Nebraska requires a permit from the Natural Resources District covering your area, which in Saunders County is the Lower Platte North NRD. The driller is typically responsible for pulling the permit and filing the well completion report after drilling. Make sure any driller you hire is licensed by the state of Nebraska.
How long does a residential well typically last in the Mead, Nebraska area?
A properly constructed residential well in Nebraska can last 30 to 50 years, though the pump typically needs replacement every 10 to 25 years depending on usage and water quality. Sediment-heavy water or low pH can wear down pump components faster. Regular water testing and periodic professional inspections help catch problems before they become complete failures.
