Well Conditions in San Marcos
In San Marcos, wells typically reach depths of 100-300 feet to access the fractured crystalline rock aquifer. The local geology consists of fractured granite bedrock with decomposed granite overlay, which affects drilling methods and well performance.
Common issues we see in San Marcos: low yield wells due to fractured rock, seasonal water table fluctuation. With 12-18 inches annually rainfall, proper well maintenance is essential for reliable water supply.
Drilling in San Marcos requires specialized knowledge of local geology. The fractured granite bedrock with decomposed granite overlay presents specific challenges, and we use the right drilling techniques to ensure a productive well. Our experience with the fractured crystalline rock aquifer helps us site wells for optimal yield.
