Feedback & Review

Trusted By Hundreds
of Happy People

I had the pleasure of having Sam and Hunter for the installation of my new water softener, and I couldn’t be more impressed! They were professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly patient—especially when they had to work around Nerf bullets being shot at them by my 4-year-old! They made sure everything was installed perfectly, took the time to explain the process, and even cleaned up afterward. The system is working great, and I can already notice a difference in the water quality. Highly recommend Sam and Hunter for their excellent service and positive attitude, no matter what comes their way!

We bought a new home November 1st, 2024 and low and behold it had a collapsed well..sigh. After several quotes, we chose Chatfield drilling, and we're glad we did! Matt & his team arrived quickly to assess the situation, and formulate a plan to get the H2O flowing again. Even through the holidays, they did not waiver. Eric their driller worked hard in the brutal NE Ohio cold to pound a well for us, He's awesome! Bonnie their secretary kept us updated through the entire process. Thank you Bonnie! And another team came quickly afterwards to get us wired up and running by the New Year. This company is very professional, and provides excellent service with affordable pricing. Matt explained every step of the process to a city girl who moved to the country lol! We financed through Goodleap, they too are a lifesaver and highly recommended. THANK YOU Chatfield Drilling!❤️ We are beyond pleased, and have fantastic water!

Chatfield Drilling replaced a submersible pump, extended our well casing above ground, and installed a sanitary cap at our farm house. This is our first experience with a well. Both Matt and Sam were happy to answer all of our questions, no matter how small, in a way that we could understand and enabled us to make informed decisions. They were on time, sent reminders ahead of time, and told us who would be arriving. Amazing to deal with, thank you!
