Boost Groundwater Production in Low-Yield Wells Across Kamloops, Merritt, Vernon & Central BC
When a well underperforms due to restricted flow or low aquifer recharge, drilling deeper isn’t always the answer. At Fyfe Well & Water Services, we offer hydraulic fracturing (hydro-fracturing) services to improve groundwater yield from low-producing wells throughout Kamloops, Merritt, Vernon, and the Central BC Interior. This proven technique uses high-pressure water injection to open or expand fractures within the bedrock, increasing permeability and allowing greater water flow into the well casing—often restoring or improving supply without the need for new construction.
We begin with a flow test, drawdown analysis, and borehole inspection to determine if your well is a viable candidate for hydro-fracturing based on geology, construction, and pressure dynamics.
Using professional-grade packer systems, we isolate targeted zones within the well bore to direct clean, high-pressure water into the surrounding rock formation, expanding existing fractures or creating new ones to enhance yield.
After treatment, we flush the well and conduct flow testing, recovery monitoring, and water quality assessments to verify performance gains and determine suitability for use or re-integration into your system.
All hydro-frac jobs include pre- and post-treatment reports, including flow rate comparisons, recovery curves, and geological observations—critical for municipal and industrial permitting or asset documentation.
Fast, reliable, and built to last—get in touch with our experienced team.
Hydro-fracturing is a cost-effective, minimally invasive method to restore performance and extend the usable life of your well. Let our team help you tap into greater flow with proven results.
We proudly provide residential, commercial, and industrial well drilling services across Central BC, including Kamloops, Kelowna, Cranbrook, Merritt, Vernon, Salmon Arm, and surrounding communities. From the Okanagan Valley to the Cariboo and Kootenays, our team delivers expert water solutions for homes, farms, and businesses.
We know that large-scale water infrastructure projects often come with complex technical and regulatory questions. Below are answers to some of the most common inquiries we receive from industrial operators, engineers, and project managers working across Central BC.
How much can hydro-fracturing increase flow rates?
Depending on rock structure and treatment zone, flow rates can increase 2x to 10x or more. We’ll test and verify every result.
Is it safe for the well and surrounding area?
Yes—hydro-fracturing uses only clean water and is performed under controlled conditions with careful pressure monitoring and containment.
Can this be used on older or seasonal wells?
Absolutely. Many clients use hydro-frac to revive aging wells or to support increased seasonal usage without new drilling.
Whether you're planning a new development, upgrading existing systems, or solving complex water challenges, Fyfe Well & Water Services is ready to help.
