Vermillion Pump & Drilling is a family-owned well and pump company in Chattaroy, in Spokane County. It says it has served Spokane and the surrounding area for more than two decades. It drills wells for rural homes, deepens wells whose output has dropped, and installs PVC liners and stainless or PVC sand screens in wells that produce sand or gravel.
Clean-out and repair. For wells that have lost flow or become unusable, the company offers several clean-out and repair methods, including jetting and installing screens to keep sand and particulates out. Its services list also includes well video, well repair, filtration, and well testing certification. Its FAQ distinguishes air tests from certified pump tests.
Pump systems. Vermillion installs, services and repairs pumps. It offers conventional systems with pressure tanks, self-contained in-well constant-pressure systems, and reservoir systems, in which the well fills a storage tank and a second pump delivers pressure and flow to the house.
Where it works. Its service-area list names Spokane, Chattaroy, Cheney, Davenport, Deer Park, Elk, Liberty Lake, Newman Lake, Nine Mile and Tyler. Its FAQ says it works in eastern Washington for both drilling and pump work. The company handles the well drilling permit for customers.
