Water Well Service in Groom, Texas
Groom stands on I-40 where the true High Plains begin: flat wheat ground, big skies, and the 19-story cross you can see for miles. The farms and ranches around it run on private wells, and Applewhite Water Well keeps those wells pumping and producing.
We cover Groom and southern Carson County with pump repair and replacement, windmill service, and solar systems.
Well Country: What Makes Groom Different
Around Groom you are on the caprock proper, and wells here behave like plains wells: drilled into the Ogallala sand, with depth to water that has crept down over decades of regional pumping. Older wells often need pumps lowered or wells deepened, and new wells need honest siting against current water levels, not 1970s memories.
This is wheat and stocker-cattle country, and winter grazing puts livestock water demand into the coldest months. Freeze-protected plumbing, insulated well houses, and reliable storage matter as much here as summer capacity. We build systems for both ends of the thermometer.
Groom’s famous leaning water tower makes visitors do a double take on I-40. The wells we service around town lean on nothing: plumb casings, sealed wellheads, and pumps sized to the real water level.

Groom Well Service Questions
Do you serve Groom regularly from Wheeler?
Yes. Groom anchors the western end of our service area, and we route work there in planned runs, with priority for no-water calls. Call 806-334-0785.
My Groom-area well is weaker every year. Why?
Falling water levels on the caprock are the usual cause. Often the pump can be lowered; sometimes the well needs deepening. We measure and tell you which.
Can you winterize stock water for wheat-pasture cattle?
Yes: freeze-resistant plumbing, insulated well houses, and storage that keeps troughs supplied through northers.
Can you set up a new well near Groom?
We equip and service wells sized for stock and household demand, arrange licensed drilling when a new hole is required, and give a straight answer on what current water levels support.
Is Carson County in a groundwater district?
Groundwater district rules can apply around Groom. We handle applicable paperwork as part of the job so your well is done right.
