Review 1 (2024-09-25 - Rating: 5)
I called Coonse Well Drilling & Pump Company at 8am this morning due to my pump going out at 4am this morning. My Sub Drive Connect control box was showing an F5 error message. Gary Coonse arrived at 9am and after some electrical testing thought my pump had failed. The pump was installed 6 years ago when the home was built.During Gary’s further trouble shooting at the well, he found that 2 wires that were spliced together during the original installation had been rubbing together and exposed the wire to water/moisture which shorted the system. Gary could have easily said it was still a motor issue or a burned out control panel and I would have had believed him. But Gary has integrity, which is becoming rare these days, and showed me the problem. Gary fixed the wiring problem with a proper wire splice, which wasn’t done by the original installer. Gary’s fee was fair and I’m very happy to recommend him to anyone who is having pump issues or needs a well installed. -

Just had our pump and well inspected by Coonse and they were so friendly, quick, and efficient. They were going to come next week but they expedited things and came today for our convenience because our closing was moved up. I would happily recommend them to anyone needing a well inspection. -

By far the most honest company I have worked with. Gene wright, of coonse well and pump, owner operator, went above and beyond my needs. The most professional, very fast and efficient. They bumped me up in the schedule to make sure I had water for my sons graduation party. Only fixed what was needed, And a very very fair price. Thank you, Gene, Youre the best! -

My parents pump & well from the 60s stopped working late December 2017. We were all going through a rough patch with Dad in the hospital and trying to get the well working again. I tried a couple of options to resurrect the old pump system with no success. I contacted Coonse Drilling. They came out to attempt to get the old system working but circumstances beyond their control caused this to fail. Shortly after this they worked us into their very busy schedule and started drilling a new well. The new well was completed within just a couple of days and then they installed a new pump and system. The new well and pump will be a great addition to Mom and Dads property and we could not be more pleased. Each and every time I had contact with them it was always positive and pleasant. Everyone I worked with from folks in the office, Gene with pump installation to Mike and Rob doing the drilling worked hard to make our situation much better. I would definitely recommend them to anyone. Great work and timing to get Mom and Dad water when they needed it. -

I have done business with Coonse Well Drilling and Pump for several years. The first time at our previous home, we had our water go off and I called 2 companies for competing bids. The first wanted to put a completely new pump down the well for several thousand dollars. Gene showed up, said my pump was fine, replaced our pressure tank which had a leaking bladder, and was out in a few hours for a few hundred dollars. I have ALWAYS called Gene since.A few years back we moved to a new property, and the previous owner decided to save money on the well construction and did not have screen filters installed. This has caused us numerous problems, that Ive relied on Coonse to address. Since I have Gene on speed dial, he has always fit me in when we are out of water, and been reasonable in their response time when the problems were less severe.Most recently, our subdivision lost access to the irrigation system that served our properties (5 acre lots). Gene came out and evaluated an abandoned well as a possibility and recommended a solution that would serve our subdivision. The other owners werent ready, so my wife and I were on our own. We hired a water engineer to design the well and system we needed to serve our home and irrigate our lot, and put it out to bid. Coonse was not the lowest, and the wait was several months longer, but in many respects a known quantity. The other company was the one that tried to sell me a new pump when all I needed was a pressure tank. So we waited our turn.Andy and his crew drilled the well, and Gene and his guys built the pump system. Both crews were professional and efficient, and we are very satisfied with the results. The water quality and performance are such a contrast to our old system its amazing. I strongly suggest you give this company a shot at bidding for your business.Greg Dickerson -

Great company to work with. I work with Gene and Frank regularly and they are stand up guys. They have extensive knowledge about pumps and wells and gladly share information on the things they have learned through decades in the business. Really great family owned company. -

I had a question about drilling a water well so I called Coonse Well Drilling. I was absolutely blown away by their customer service. I spoke with Gene, he was a wealth of knowledge and an incredible help. We will definitely be using Coonse Well Drilling when we are ready to move forward with our project. Thank you again for your help! -

I have to hands down give Brett a 5* and then some. He was fantastic. Our family was without water for 3 days, we called around and he came right away and was helpful teaching us about our system with our well and went above and beyond to put us at ease with any questions we threw at him. Thank you so much Brett! Youre a rockstar. -

I called after hours and left a message on their office line. I received a call back first thing the next morning. They said it would be the afternoon before they could send someone out so we called another company. BIG MISTAKE. The other company tried to charge us $1700 for a new controller that we didnt need and another $3300 for a new pump which we also did not need. In the meantime, Gene called me and I told him what was going on. He gave me a quick tutorial and then he came right out and took care of the issue. It was a broken wire and a service call fee of $152. A far cry from what the other place was trying to charge us! I will always use Coonse in the future and will recommend them to my clients as well!! -

With all the stress that came with having no water in our home, all I can only say Coonse was amazing!!! Our pump in our well went out on Tuesday evening. That evening we had sent a message online for them to call us in the morning. When we spoke to them in the morning they had already researched and found out all the information needed before calling us. By 4pm Thursday we had water again! I had talked to April on the phone a few times to verify some information and she was very professional and kind. We highly recommend them for all your well Drilling needs. Thank you Coones! -

Gene is always incredible to work with! I have used Coonse Drilling many times in the last 12 years. When you have no water the stress level in a home goes up significantly. My mother in law had no water last night.I called Gene at 8:00 PM expecting to leave a message and he answered. He said he could stop by in the morning to take a look at her system. He showed up at 7:30 AM and by 8:15 AM had a new pump controller installed. I cant say enough about Coonse Drilling. Absolutley incredible service with fair prices! -

Thankyou so much for getting our well in place and for the communication that was going on between us. Rigs break down, sometimes wells take longer to dig than expected. Things happen and we were a bit delayed in getting our system in, but no harm done. I am grateful to know that if something didnt work years down the road that I would be taken care promptly as a return customer. We havent been able to fire up our system yet because of other contractors in order, but your costumer service has been outstanding. Thanks for letting me ask lots of questions, and providing the invoices as line items so I know what I am paying for. -

I cant recommend Coonse Well Drilling enough. They came to our rescue when our old well (drilled by another company, no longer in business...I know....shocker) got choked by blue clay and we were running out of water. Everyone who came out was pleasant and professional and ensured that we were aware of all the details along the way to make informed decisions. Top notch workmanship and value! -

I woke up to no water, no shower, no pump. I thought this will take more than a day to to get repaired. I called Coonse drilling and pump and they came today with a truck with all the needed parts. We got a new pump with upgrades before 4pm. Great job and many thanks! -

They just completed a well retrofit for me, willing to work the extra hours to get the water back on as soon as possible, They left everything looking better than when they started. Highly recommend using them for anything. Have used them several times in the past also every time it has been a great experience, by far the best one. -

I just had Coonse Well Drilling & Pump Co., drill a new well and installed a new pump and pressure tank. I would like to complement Mike, Kaden, Bret and Wyatt for the good work they did for us during the project. Also all the other people that worked for this project we didnt get to know. They were courteous , kept us well informed and eager to answer all of the questions I kept asking. I couldnt ask for a better experience. If I ever need work again they are on the top of my list. -

Big shout out to Coonse! They responded on short notice to a hydrant that was leaking from the head and underground badly. This was our only close hydrant to watering all the horses and the winter temps among us. Thank you so much for your professionalism, courtesy and price! -

Our H.O.A. (Dunten Place) in Meridian has its own private well and after 14 years, our old pump finally died. I called 6 of the BIG well drilling and pump companies around the valley to get bids on replacing our entire system. Only 2 companies were interested as the old pipe/pump had to be pulled using a crane over one of our member homes at a distance of about 110 feet with power lines on 2 sides.Everyone else wanted the easy jobs, where they could just sit over the well head with their truck, but Coonse didnt hesitate and was very responsive to give us a bid immediately. They not only had the lowest of the 2 bids, but after speaking with Gene at Coonse, he reassured me that using a crane to pull the pump would be no problem, he already had a great contractor that he works with that had the right equipment and the more he described the type of system he would build us, I knew they were the right choice.The work went off without a hitch; nothing was disturbed around the home that the system sat behind; Gene got the whole job done literally in a matter of hours. He met me today at the well to start everything up for the first time as we were ready to begin our watering season and it went flawlessly. He explained how everything worked, how to winterize the system and built us a system that really runs itself automatically after he programmed our new controller...Coonse is definitely the first one to call for all your pump projects, Im so pleased with their work...Great Job! -
