Well Abandonment

Professional Well Abandonment Services

If a well is no longer in use or has reached the end of its service life, proper well abandonment is essential to help protect groundwater and comply with state regulations. DMB Drilling provides professional well abandonment services throughout Northwestern Wisconsin and East Central Minnesota, ensuring unused wells are sealed safely and responsibly.

Unused or improperly abandoned wells can create safety hazards and provide a pathway for contaminants to enter groundwater. Proper abandonment helps eliminate these risks while meeting applicable state requirements.


Whether you’re replacing an existing well, removing an abandoned well from your property, or preparing for new construction, DMB Drilling can help.

• A well is no longer being used

• A well has failed beyond repair

If you’re unsure whether your well should be abandoned, our team can evaluate your situation and recommend the best course of action.
