Well Drillers Near Twin Lakes, Wisconsin

The typical geological profile for the Twin Lakes region consists of an upper clay unit, underlain by a thick clay or mixed sand/clay unit, with a lower sand/gravel aquifer utilized for water supply. Wells are most frequently completed at the top of the basal sand/gravel. Residential wells producing 5–20 GPM typically reach 75–110 feet.

Detailed Summary

Based on synthesis of well logs in the Twin Lakes area, the most representative subsurface sequence begins with a surface clay layer (brown/pink/gray, soft-plastic), ranging from 5–15 feet thick, overlying a thick, blue or non-specific colored clay unit that extends to about 60–115 feet below ground. A transition zone of mixed sand and clay may be present but is not consistent in all wells. The primary aquifer is a sand and gravel deposit, usually encountered from about 60–150 feet to total depths that vary by location, but with a common base from 70–115 feet. Static water levels are commonly 30–70 feet below ground surface. Grouting is typically with bentonite, quick gel, or cement, and residential wells are most often completed to or just below the basal sand/gravel. Rotary mud circulation is the standard drilling method.
