In El Cajon, wells typically reach depths of 50-150 feet to access the San Diego Formation aquifer. The local geology consists of decomposed granite and sandy loam, which affects drilling methods and well performance.
Common issues we see in El Cajon: saltwater intrusion near coast, iron and manganese in groundwater. With 10-12 inches annually rainfall, proper well maintenance is essential for reliable water supply.
