Thanks Tony. Our well is cut into the limestone, so no liner required.

ring-lined well
Ring Well Drilling that we do is by using simple tools in weathered rock, overburden or sedimentary formations. The well is then lined to the aquifer with ***concrete rings***. Our process of Ring Well Drilling includes excavating a shaft, manually and installing a casing where needed.
