Montgomery County well depths

What 10,334 positive-depth household records tell you

Montgomery County has 10,338 domestic reports, and 10,334 include a positive borehole depth. Those logs have a 220-foot median, while their middle half runs from 190 to 280 feet. The 90th-percentile planning marker is 372 feet, and the full recorded range is 10 to 3,625 feet.

That spread is a reason to avoid treating one county figure as a property estimate. Nearby comparable records, the intended demand, access, construction choices, source documents, and site conditions all belong in the review.

Plain answer: Montgomery County’s domestic records provide a useful comparison range, but the exact property and the most relevant nearby records matter more than a countywide midpoint.

What the county records contain

Montgomery County’s well file serves several purposes

Domestic use accounts for 10,338 of the county’s 13,820 submitted reports. Monitoring, irrigation, public-supply, environmental, industrial, and other work make up the rest, so every filing should stay attached to its reported purpose instead of being blended into a household planning comparison.

10,338

Domestic records

10,334 domestic filings include a positive depth. Their 220-foot median sits inside a 190-to-280-foot middle band.

1,199

Monitor records

1,197 monitoring filings include a positive depth. Their 30-foot median belongs to a distinct observation purpose.

944

Irrigation records

All 944 irrigation filings include a positive depth, with a 214-foot median and a separate demand pattern.

518

Public-supply records

All 518 filings include a positive depth; their 536.5-foot median is not a household-well benchmark.

243

Environmental soil-boring records

All 243 filings include a positive depth, with a 15-foot median and a different observation purpose.

The file also contains 137 industrial records, 121 injection records, 118 records labeled Other, 68 test-well records, 59 rig-supply records, 40 closed-loop geothermal records, 24 stock records, seven de-watering records, and four extraction records.

Depth patterns by reported use

Montgomery County records need to be sorted by purpose

A countywide average that blends household wells with monitoring, irrigation, public-supply, environmental, industrial, injection, test, rig-supply, geothermal, stock, de-watering, extraction, and other work is not a clean comparison. Household planning should begin with domestic records while keeping each filing’s reported purpose in view.

What shapes a drilling estimate

The complete Montgomery County job is more than drilling footage

Gate width, road conditions, overhead lines, septic placement, distance to power, intended demand, and equipment choices all belong in the plan.

01

Property access

Roads, gates, low branches, overhead lines, utility conflicts, turning room, drainage, and a safe stabilized work pad.

02

Water demand

Household use, livestock, irrigation, storage, treatment, and peak daily needs.

03

Pump and power

Pump selection, anticipated drawdown, electrical service, controls, pressure equipment, line runs, and trenching.

04

Complete installation

Casing, completion materials, testing, storage, plumbing, treatment, cleanup, and startup.

Start with the property

Build the estimate around what the Montgomery County property actually needs.

Share the address, intended use, access, timing, and any existing well information. TurnKey Wells reviews the project context and connects the owner with a qualified water-well professional for the next step.

Plan the whole water system

Separate drilling footage from the finished system

A complete Montgomery County budget may include mobilization, drilling, casing, completion materials, pump and controls, pressure equipment, trenching, electrical work, storage, testing, treatment, drainage, and cleanup. The Texas water well drilling cost guide explains the major categories behind a headline estimate.

The Pre-Drill Report can bring nearby well records and property details into one review, but no county pattern predicts the producing interval, total depth, water level, yield, salinity, or water quality at one property. Use property-specific research before treating a county pattern as a drilling plan.

  • Drilling and casing
  • Pump and controls

Property-specific well research

Pre-Drill Intelligence Report

$199 one-time report

The county information on this page shows broad patterns. The paid report narrows the research to one Montgomery County property before you compare drilling quotes or choose the next step for your land.

  • Nearby recorded wells and reported depths
  • Property access and site-planning questions
  • Questions to ask before drilling begins
  • A clearer picture of the complete water system

Understand the ground before you drill. Property conditions can change across the county. A property-specific review brings nearby well records, location, intended use, access, and complete-system questions together before you request a drilling quote.

Montgomery County well questions

Plain answers before you plan the work

What do Montgomery County household well records show?

The county file includes 10,334 positive domestic borehole-depth logs with a 220-foot median and a 190-to-280-foot middle band. A property-level comparison is still needed before planning a new well.

Why should Montgomery County records be separated by use?

Domestic filings make up the largest group, alongside monitoring, irrigation, public-supply, environmental, industrial, injection, test, rig-supply, geothermal, stock, de-watering, extraction, and other uses. Keeping each purpose separate produces a cleaner household planning picture.

Does a countywide depth pattern predict one property?

No. County records do not prove the producing interval, total depth, water level, yield, salinity, or water quality at one property.

Which groundwater rules apply in Montgomery County?

Registration, permitting, spacing, construction, and reporting requirements can depend on the property, district boundary, well type, and intended use. Confirm current requirements before work begins.

What should a complete drilling quote include?

Compare mobilization, drilling, casing, completion materials, pump and controls, pressure equipment, electrical and trenching work, testing, treatment or storage where needed, startup, and cleanup.

County community context

Water well planning across Montgomery County

Property owners ask about well planning around Conroe, Magnolia, Montgomery, Willis, New Caney, Porter, Splendora, Pinehurst, and rural acreage between them. Start with the exact address or coordinates, intended water use, access, utilities, and nearby domestic records; a community label does not prove shared geology, water quality, or private-well feasibility.
