Waterfind helps clients evaluate potential well locations on their property, from surface, without the expense of drilling test holes. With the help of Electroseismic (EKS) technology developed in the UK we can provide estimates for  depth and interpreted yield on each location surveyed.  The reports we provide help clients make an informed choice on the optimum location to drill, reducing  their risk of drilling a “dry hole”. Though dry holes don’t happen often, they do, particularly in hard to find water areas, at times costing thousands of dollars. Our goal is to find our clients the water they need, and to prevent them from drilling dry holes. WaterFind clients have the benefit of our experience in Western Canada and the technology we use that is considered to be the most successful and economical  being used to locate ground water today.

Who Hires Us?

Most of our work across Western Canada is for Land owners and Developers to find locations for wells for new home construction or rural developments. Farm's, both large scale and and hobby, or acreages who have had a well go dry, had a well decrease in flow, or simply have a need for more water due to a growing family or expanding livestock operation also make up a substantial portion of our client base. Most of WaterFind's surveys  are away from cities or central water supply’s though working with Geo-Tech firms, we have done projects right in town, with the goal of adding hi-producing central wells to supply new developments and/or add to the towns water supply. Realtors and their clients  also use our service to  determine the likelihood of developing a good well on a property,  taking our survey report under consideration on how or if to make the offer on a property with a poor or  non-existing well. A growing part of our business is providing EKS data to Commercial and Professional Geo-Technical  firms providing the results of our data for locating wells or added technical insight or support for their projects relating to  Groundwater protection, Aquifer mapping, Environmental Monitoring, Dewatering programs, Landfill developments and large-scale construction projects.

Water is becoming a commodity and a good well on a property can add considerable value or in some cases create it. In many areas in Western Canada a property subdivision can not take place without first proving a water supply exists. Developing a good well or wells, has become a big part of maximizing the value of real estate.
