Well Drillers Near Rosebush, Michigan

A geological estimate for the Rosebush area.

Detailed Summary

A generalized geological profile for the Rosebush area indicates that wells usually begin in a surficial sand or sandy clay layer, quickly transitioning into a thick sequence of clayey material, often including intervals of sand, gravel, or mixed lithologies. The primary water-yielding aquifer is typically encountered between 60 and 110 ft depth, composed of sand or sand with gravel (and sometimes minor clay), representing the most consistent and productive zone for household water wells. Beneath this, clay or clayey layers may reappear or continue. The static water level across the sampled wells averages near 22 ft below surface. Typical residential wells (5–15+ GPM) are completed at ~80–110 ft, with higher capacity wells or more uncertain locations drilled to 120 ft or more. Casing is commonly installed from surface down to the top of the main aquifer zone (usually 65–100 ft). Grouting is performed with bentonite slurry or pellets, generally from surface to about 65–95 ft.
