About Access Waterwells Inc.
Since 1969, Access Waterwells Inc. has been dedicated to providing long-serving water wells of all types drilled to the best possible quality. Based in both Edson & Ft. Saskatchewan, we offer services to clients across Western Canada for residential, commercial, and industrial applications.
Access Waterwells Inc. is the re-branded name chosen in 1992 from the original founding company name of Mel’s Drilling Services 1976 Ltd. The motivation to change the original name was due to the fact that we wanted to align our marketing & brand to more of what our company was focused upon, which is the development of Canada’s groundwater resource & infrastructure. We found that being aligned with just “Drilling” gave the impression that we did just that…. Drill a hole in the ground, which can be easy to do, but does not relate to a properly constructed quality water supply well system. What makes our company unique are the fundamentals that is was formed upon. Our industry has shown that it is very difficult to measure the quality of product due to the fact that most of the important aspects are the quality of materials used and the workmanship provided, which are of course hidden underground, free from visual inspection & comparison.
It is taught within Access Waterwells Inc. that from day one, quality service and quality of the end product was what was most important and that it would speak volumes in the future. This has been our company's foundation in the past and we believe that these ideals will be sustainable for the future. Fresh, potable water is one of the most important resources that the Earth has to offer. Access Waterwells Inc. believes in the importance of protecting its renewability by properly installing the wells we construct.
