Well Drillers Near Kansasville, Wisconsin

The representative geological profile for the Kansasville region consists of surface soil/clay, a thick interbedded clay/hardpan sequence, overlying sand and/or sand & gravel, with limestone or dolomite bedrock present at greater depths in certain areas. The most productive residential wells are completed in thick sand & gravel or shallow fractured rock, typically at 120-180 ft depth.

Detailed Summary

Based on synthesis of multiple well logs across the Kansasville and surrounding Racine/Kenosha areas, the most typical stratigraphy consists of (1) a thin topsoil or organic layer, (2) a thick clay unit (often subdivided by color and consistency; blue, gray, yellow, sometimes with hardpan), (3) variable but regionally persistent sand and gravel aquifer, and in some wells, (4) fractured limestone or dolomite at depth. Productive residential wells (capable of 5-15+ GPM) are consistently finished in either the thicker sand & gravel zone or, for deeper completions, the upper portion of limestone. Static water levels are most commonly recorded between 30-80 ft below surface. Typical total well depths are 120-180 ft for sand/gravel, but may reach 200-345 ft if completed in bedrock.
