Well Liner Installation (Muddy Well Repair)

If your water is turning cloudy, gritty, or has a muddy look after heavy rain, your well might have a cracked or damaged casing. Over time, groundwater and sediment can leak into the well, making the water unsafe or unpleasant to use. That’s where a well liner comes in.

What Is a Well Liner?

A well liner is a durable pipe—usually made of PVC or stainless steel—that’s installed inside your existing well casing. It seals off cracks or holes that let in mud, sand, or surface water. Think of it as a new “sleeve” inside your well that protects your water source without needing to drill a new one.


Why Install a Well Liner:

  • Fixes muddy or cloudy water that comes and goes after rain


  • Stops sand and sediment from getting into your plumbing and fixtures


  • Prevents contamination from surface water or bacteria



  • Extends the life of your existing well without the cost of drilling a new one

Our Process:

  1. Inspection and Diagnosis – We use a downhole camera and water testing to confirm the source of the problem.
  2. Custom Liner Sizing – Every well is different, so we measure and fit a liner that restores your well’s seal.
  3. Installation – The liner is carefully lowered and sealed in place, creating a clean, protected channel for your water supply.
  4. Testing and Cleanup – We flush, test, and confirm that your water is clear and your system is back to normal.
