Find your well record in Georgia
When your well was drilled, the driller filed a report: how deep the borehole goes, the casing diameter, and where the water sat. That record is the difference between guessing at your well and knowing it.
Where Georgia keeps its well records
The official source is the Georgia EPD Water Well Standards (records held by drillers/counties). Look your property up there, note the total depth, casing diameter, and static water level, and bring those three numbers back to our calculator for a treatment plan sized to your well.

What the record tells you
Three numbers matter for treating a well. Total depth and static water level give the standing water column, and the casing diameter converts that column to gallons: 0.0408 × diameter² gallons per vertical foot. From gallons, a disinfectant dose stops being a guess. Our kit uses those numbers to count the pre-measured pouches for your well, and every constant in the math is on the sources page.
Records are a starting point, not gospel: older wells may predate filing requirements, and scanned records can be missing fields. Our flow always shows you the record it found and lets you correct it before anything is sized. If you cannot find a record at all, the typical depths guide explains how to estimate honestly.
Two quick answers cover the search itself: how to find your well's drilling record and how deep your well is when the record is missing.
Quick answers for Georgia well owners
- How deep is my well in Georgia?
- The total depth is on your well's drilling record, filed by the driller when the well was built. In Georgia the record is at: Georgia EPD Water Well Standards (records held by drillers/counties). If no record exists, the well type sets the range: driven sand points run about 25 to 75 feet and common drilled wells 150 to 350 feet, per our typical-depths guide.
- Where do I find Georgia well logs?
- A well log, well report and well record are the same document. The official Georgia source: Georgia EPD Water Well Standards (records held by drillers/counties). Search by address, parcel or owner name, and note the total depth, casing diameter and static water level.
- How do I find the well on my property?
- Look for a capped steel or plastic pipe standing in the yard, a small well house, or a pit cover, usually near the house. The drilling record often gives a distance from the house or a sketch. Our guide to treating a well shows what each kind of well head looks like.
