What 269 positive-depth household records tell you
Ellis County has 269 domestic reports, and 269 include a positive borehole depth. Those logs have a 430-foot median. Their middle half runs from 340 to 740 feet, the calculated 90th-percentile marker is 914.4 feet, and the full recorded positive range is 27 to 1,409 feet.
Historical county records do not predict one property’s producing interval, total depth, water level, yield, water quality, or final price. A useful Ellis County quote also needs all-weather access, county-road and driveway conditions, gate width, turning and service clearance, overhead conflicts, intended demand, power, pressure equipment, storage, treatment, electrical and trenching work, startup, and cleanup.

Recorded domestic borehole depths
The middle half of 269 positive reported domestic depths
Ellis County’s well file serves several purposes
The 1,376 submitted reports include 628 monitoring, 269 domestic, 249 environmental soil-boring, 59 irrigation, 43 stock, 37 injection, 25 closed-loop-geothermal, 22 public-supply, 20 other, 11 test-well, 11 industrial, 2 rig-supply. Keep these purposes separate so monitoring, livestock, environmental, irrigation, injection, test-well, public-supply, rig-supply, closed-loop geothermal, industrial, or other-purpose work does not distort household planning.
Domestic records
All 269 include positive depths, with a 430-foot median and a 340-to-740-foot middle band.
Stock records
These have a 520-foot median tied to a separate livestock demand profile.
Irrigation records
These have a 762.5-foot median tied to a separate irrigation demand profile.
Monitoring records
These have a 25-foot median and are not a domestic comparison.
Environmental soil-boring records
These have a 13-foot median and a distinct investigation purpose.
The remaining mix includes 37 injection, 22 public-supply, 11 test-well, 2 rig-supply, 25 closed-loop geothermal, 11 industrial, and 20 other-purpose records. Use the matching purpose before drawing depth or system conclusions.
Ellis County records need to be sorted by purpose
A countywide average blending household wells with stock, monitoring, irrigation, environmental, injection, test-well, public-supply, rig-supply, closed-loop geothermal, industrial, and other-purpose filings is not a clean comparison. Household planning should begin with domestic records.
The complete Ellis 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.
Property access
Roads, gates, low branches, overhead lines, utility conflicts, turning room, drainage, and a safe stabilized work pad.
Water demand
Household use, livestock, irrigation, storage, treatment, and peak daily needs.
Pump and power
Pump selection, anticipated drawdown, electrical service, controls, pressure equipment, line runs, and trenching.
Complete installation
Casing, completion materials, testing, storage, plumbing, treatment, cleanup, and startup.
Build the estimate around what the Ellis 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.
Separate drilling footage from the finished system
A complete Ellis County budget may include mobilization, stable-site setup, drilling, casing, completion materials, pump and controls, pressure equipment, trenching, electrical work, storage, testing, treatment, 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, or water quality at one property. Use property-specific research before treating county history as a drilling plan.

Plain answers before you plan the work
What do Ellis County household well records show?
The county file includes 269 positive domestic borehole-depth logs with a 430-foot median, a 340-to-740-foot middle band, a 914.4-foot calculated 90th percentile, and a 27-to-1,409-foot full range.
Why should Ellis County records be separated by use?
The file includes domestic, stock, monitoring, irrigation, environmental soil-boring, injection, public-supply, test-well, rig-supply, closed-loop geothermal, industrial, and other-purpose filings. Keeping each purpose separate avoids turning non-household work into a household expectation.
Does a countywide depth pattern predict one property?
No. Historical statistics are comparison context, not a prediction of producing interval, total depth, water level, yield, water quality, or price for one property.
What access details help start an Ellis County review?
Provide the exact address or coordinates, intended water use, county-road and all-weather driveway conditions, gate width, turning and equipment-staging constraints, overhead lines, available power, wastewater components, desired pressure, storage or treatment needs, and any nearby well documents.
What should a complete drilling quote include?
Compare mobilization and stable-site setup, drilling, casing, completion materials, pump and controls, pressure equipment, electrical and trenching work, testing, treatment or storage where needed, startup, and cleanup.
Water well planning across Ellis County
Property questions begin around verified communities including Waxahachie, Ennis, and Midlothian, plus county roads, farms, homesites, ranches, and rural acreage. Start with the exact address or coordinates, intended use, road and all-weather driveway conditions, gate and turning limits, overhead clearance, power, storage needs, utilities, wastewater components, and nearby domestic records; a community label does not prove shared subsurface conditions, water quality, yield, or private-well feasibility.
