Here are some Testimonials from some very satisfied customers!

Incredible Job!

Dear Chris,
I can’t express enough praise for the commendable results from the drilling you did at the Lake – Incredible Job! The water testing revealed absolutely pure water; could not have been better – with notable comments that we could now bottle it and sell. We look forward to coming home next summer to hook it up, pipe it in and enjoy. We greatly appreciate your efforts on our behalf and thank you very much for the improvements at both houses.

We are Very Thankful!

Dear Mr. Barling,
Okanagan Nation Alliance would like to acknowledge you for your generous contribution to the Shuttleworth Creek Diversion Removal and Well Implementation Project. The entire cost of the labour, supplies and transport for this work was donated by Wild West and was no doubt a huge expense and time commitment your company. The success of the wells means that the project can continue with the end goal of restoring fish flows in Shuttleworth Creek.

Honest and reliable!

Honest, reliable and a professional work ethic are only a few words to describe Chris Barling’s Wild West Drilling business. Myself and Joe would “honestly” not hesitate to recommend Chris for any of your water needs. If you want fast, prompt work done or any questions concerning your personal well or water issues, call Chris.

Great Service!

Back in 2005 when we purchased our property in Creston we were told there were no problems with the water supply.  That drastically changed when we made Creston our full-time home in 2009.  We quickly experienced the difference between big city water supply levels and that of a spring fed cistern.  Having picked up the local Creston paper, we spotted Chris’s Wild West Drilling Ad and gave him a call.

Chris came by to inspect and assess the extent of the task at hand.  After advising us of the process, we agreed on a timeline and price and the drilling commenced.  Having assessed the first drill depth, Chris found the depth insufficient for our needs and advised that we dig deeper. Chris’s expertise in the field paid off and we’ve been enjoying an over-abundant water source ever since!

Based on the water samplings, a pump and treatment system was professionally factored into the house along with plumbing and piping and we’ve never had a problem with the flow, supply, or quality since the install.  Chris was always thorough in his communications and keen on following up on the service and work that was done to ensure that everything was satisfactory and to our liking.

Out of a Five Star Rating, we give him a Five with a High Recommendation!

Thank you Chris!

Outstanding!

Creston Valley Regional Airport Society is a non-profit society operating the Creston Regional Airport by contract with the Town of Creston.  We are making several improvements at the airport but it all hinged around upgrading our water system.  The old well was not producing enough to service these improvements.  Thanks to receiving funding from RDCK Area B, we were able to contact Wild West Drilling and set up improvements that not only meet our current demand but for future developments.  

It was decided to connect the old well water supply to a 25,000 gallon fire suppression water tank that can be used not only for the Airport but for the entire Canyon/Lister fire district.  A new well was drilled, trenching and electrical lines installed and a state-of-the-art Point-of-Entry water system connected.  Chris professionally planned the complete system with special attention to detail.  The site area was cleaned and returned to original state.  We are very pleased to have this new system as a great addition to the many improvements we are making.

Awesome!

In 2009, I was in the process of purchasing a Creston Valley acreage which had an old well that had been used for agricultural purposes.  The Re/Max agent who was helping with the transaction recommended Wild West Drilling to help me with any questions I had regarding the water well as I would eventually be building a home on the property.  Chris was happy to take a look at the well and advise me on what I could do to satisfy my concerns about the capacity of the well in order to get me through the purchase process.  

When it came time to plan construction, Chris was always available to discuss the process and potential costs, particularly in regards to my requirements that the infrastructure be done to very high standards so as not to become a maintenance issue over the years or during nasty cold weather. 

Finally, upon construction of my new home, Chris and his crew worked with my builder’s timetable to get water flowing to the new home with a new well pump that suited domestic needs.  Part of the process involved cleaning out the well, which has brought me great peace of mind as I know that the well is in great shape to supply water for many years to come.  All of the work was done very professionally and cost effectively.   

Thank you Chris!

Friendly Expertise!

“We recommend Wild West Drilling for its excellent service, products and workmanship. After years of struggling with diminishing water flow from our old well, we were nervous about taking the big step of having a new well drilled on our property. Thankfully, we called Chris Barling for his advice. Chris is knowledgeable, reliable and very personable. At our first consultation with Chris we learned about the aquifer in our area, potential problems with old wells, industry changes to ensure uncontaminated water supply and the importance of quality infrastructure to avoid maintenance issues in the future.

In March 2020, we hired Wild West Drilling to drill our new well. From start to finish (product options, drilling, trenching, electrical tie-in, de-commissioning of the old well and clean-up) the service was excellent. Our water worries are over! Our home now has a large supply of water and our rural property has certainly increased in worth. Thanks Chris and crew for your friendly expertise”.
