Our story

Two generations, one promise: get the water right.

Langer Drilling and Pump is a father-and-son operation rooted in Midvale, Idaho. Pike has been drilling wells in this country for years, and his son Jay grew up around the rigs before serving in the United States Marine Corps. After his enlistment Jay came home to work alongside his dad, raise his family, and build a business his neighbors can rely on.

We live in the country we work in, and we know the geology, the water table, and most of the people who hire us. The phone rings to a Langer rather than an answering service, properties leave the way they came, and the 2am call gets picked up.

We have water. Terrific work. Father and son are both professional and courteous with great rates. The date of drilling needed to be adjusted a couple of times and they were fantastic in communication and flexibility.

Langer Drilling, father and son duo, are awesome. I needed a new well put in and I was just hoping to have more than 8 GPM. They definitely exceeded my desire; I now have a well with 60 GPM that will more than fulfill my needs, even if I do put in a garden or lawn.

Can't say enough great things about this father and son crew. Stand up Americans and Jay the son is a Marine vet. We shared some great chats about serving this great country while on my job site. We witched out the drill spot a day prior.

Adam Aquino · Job-site review

If you want experience, reliability, professionalism, and you want some water, hire Langer Drilling and Pump. They are extremely familiar with Idaho's water tables and have been doing wells for a long time. They made the process easy and we have water.

Very pleased with Pike and Jay's work. Very professional and personable. Very quick response time even when they had a busy schedule. In and out in a couple days and they found the best water for me. We absolutely love it. Would recommend Langer to anyone.

A generational family-run company that believes in service. They put in a residential well for me and the service was excellent. Their prices and services are great and communication with the customer even better.

Questions we hear a lot

Straight answers.

How much does a new well cost?

Cost depends on depth, geology, and the system you go with. Wells in our area run a workable range, and we'll give you a real number after we've looked at the site. Call us and we'll walk through it together.

How deep will my well need to be?

Depth varies across the Weiser River Valley, and we estimate before we drill using local knowledge, neighboring well logs, and geology data when we need it. Most domestic wells in this area land between 100 and 400 feet.

How long does it take to drill a well?

A typical domestic well is a couple of days of drilling once we're on site, though scheduling, permits, and weather move the start date. We give you a realistic timeline up front and keep you posted if anything shifts.

Do I need a permit to drill a well in Idaho?

Idaho requires a permit and a filed driller's log for most new wells, and as a licensed driller we handle that paperwork as part of the job. You get the well, the log, and the records the state needs.

Do you drill for farms and irrigation?

Yes. We drill agricultural and irrigation wells and size them to your real GPM needs, so give us a call to talk through what your operation requires.
