WATER WELL Hydrofracking Services
Boosting well performance for homes, farms, and businesses
At Marquis Well & Pump, we specialize in hydrofracking: a proven, environmentally safe method for dramatically improving the yield of low-producing water wells throughout Maine. Whether you manage a commercial operation or a private home, our certified technicians can help you achieve a stronger, more reliable water supply without the cost of drilling a new well.
WHAT DOES THE PROCESS INVOLVE?
In simple terms, hydrofracking uses clean water under extremely high pressure to open and expand fractures in the bedrock surrounding your well. This allows groundwater to flow more freely and increases your well’s yield.
Here’s how it works:
- Two inflatable packers are set approximately 40 and 60 feet below the surface to seal the well and prevent contamination.
- We inject only clean, potable water under high pressure into the sealed section of the borehole.
- The pressure removes fine particles and widens existing fractures—sometimes creating new micro-channels through the rock.
- Once complete, we measure flow rates to verify the increased production and provide you with a clear report.
Hydrofracking carries a 95% success rate and is an ideal solution for low-productivity wells across Maine’s granite and shale formations.
COMMERCIAL HYDROFRACKING
Commercial hydrofracking supercharges low-yield water wells so businesses can meet high-volume demand without costly new drilling. By injecting clean, high-pressure water into the borehole, our technicians widen existing fractures and create new pathways through the surrounding bedrock. The result is a significant increase in gallons-per-minute output - often two to ten times higher - providing farms, manufacturing facilities, commercial developments, and municipal systems with the steady, high-capacity water flow they rely on.
RESIDENTIAL HYDROFRACKING
Residential hydrofracking is a fast, affordable way to restore or improve your home’s water supply without starting from scratch. Using a sealed inflatable packer, we pump clean, high-pressure water deep into your existing borehole to gently open natural fissures and micro-fractures in the surrounding bedrock. This allows more groundwater to flow freely into your well, often increasing yield by one to five times.
