Local Reviews & Testimonials for Hawk Drilling Company

Chris tested our water and recommended a water softener. In addition, he recommended a solution to an issue with our hot water heater. The whole process from our first contact, installation and a few follow up questions was dealt with quickly and professionally. We highly recommend Hawk Drilling for water system problems.

Excellent service. Spencer and Nick showed up late on a Friday afternoon. They quickly diagnosed the problem. Repair required opening well, pulling out (by hand) 206 feet of pipe, wire, and pump. They replaced pump, wire, and pressure tank, had replacements on the truck, and got me back in service same day.

VERY HONEST! Jeremey and Will are fantastic well drillers/geologist. The process from start to finish was flawless and turned out better than expected. Jeremey came out to really look at the land and picked out probably the best place for a well. We ended up with a very high GPM and we didn’t go as deep as expected. That’s why they are honest and I would recommend them to everyone who needs a well. They did not do more than was necessary and kept me in the loop. We planned for 80ft but found success at 60ft and THEY TOLD ME RIGHT AWAY!!! I just can’t thank them enough for making this stressful part of home building a huge sigh of relief. Our whole family thanks you and I will shout y’all’s name from the rooftop!!!

From start to finish, the team at Hawk Drilling was responsive, friendly, and professional. I was looking for a filtration system for my home, and Chris came out to test my water, explain my options, and provide estimates along the way. He never tried to upsell me- he simply recommended what I actually needed. The installation was completed in a timely manner, and Scott took the time to explain the process and show me how to change the filter. As a bonus, my cat loved him too! I highly recommend Hawk Drilling for water filtration systems. They were awesome!

We had a great experience with Hawk Drilling for what was a challenging repair and upgrade to our small Community Water System. From my first call I was reassured by Sandra that they were capable of taking on this project. On site Chris and his knowledgeable hard working team completed what was a complex job as planned in difficult weather conditions, and ahead of schedule. They even took care to be sure they left the site as found. We would use them again and highly recommend them.

Hawk Drilling exceeded every expectation. I initially believed I was facing a costly well pump replacement, potentially thousands of dollars. When I called, Sandra provided exceptional guidance. Instead of pushing a service, she helped me troubleshoot. As a capable DIYer, I followed her advice and quickly identified the pressure switch as the issue. A simple fix got my system back to full function without unnecessary expense. As a home inspector, I’ve now replaced my prior referral with Hawk Drilling. Their expertise, integrity, and support are unmatched. I highly recommend them without reservation.

Sandra and everyone at Hawk Well Drilling is incredible and extremely knowledgeable from the time you call until the time they’re done fixing the problem. They were able to come out same day, diagnose, and fix our problem. I will always call them when needed and I could not recommend the enough.

I dont usually leave reviews, but Hawk Well Drilling was awsome. I didn't have water on Tuesday and they sent Spenser out right away he did an wonderful job and changed the well pump but found a leak in between the well and house. Friday Collin and Keith came out and fixed that problem. I would highly recommond them for any of your well issues.

I just had Hawk Drilling at my house to fix a marked sudden drop in water pressure. I had called a plumber and they said that I needed a new well pump and to call Hawk. I called them and explained that I needed a new well pump installed and although I was a new customer they fit me into their schedule the same day!! They diagnosed the problem right away as a relatively minor issue not needing a new pump, and fixed it in the same trip. I've never written a review before, but this company really really impressed me. They could have easily sold me a new pump, and never tried to. They could have easily put me off a few days, but still showed up so quickly. I would give them my highest recommendation to anyone in need of such services Mike Tucci

I am the Pastor of Victory Bible Baptist Church in Porter Corners. Hawk drilled our well some time ago, and they were excellent to work with from the start. They took very good care of us throughout the process. Last week we experienced an issue with our water pressure. After calling Hawk, they sent a technician out within hours. The gentleman they sent was knowledgeable, professional, and did an excellent job diagnosing the problem. He determined that the issue was with the well pump and also informed us that the pump was still under warranty—something we would not have known had he not been honest and forthcoming. I truly appreciate businesses that do quality work and operate with integrity. Hawk has proven to be both dependable and trustworthy, and I highly recommend them.

Contacted Hawk to resolve an issue with my water. The pump had cut out iand the cistern and had run dry. The technicians came out the following day, as promised and resolved the problem. The service people were friendly, and were happy to explain what was going on. I will certainly be using the company again if I have any issues and would be happy to recommend them.

Hawk Drilling went above and beyond to help me with my well problems. Their office staff and customer service are superb. They are responsive, arrive on time and did an exceptional job. Alec and Alan were great to work with. We ran into several unexpected issues when the well shock process was supposed to be quick and easy. But Alec was determined to help and get me all fixed up. Very Appreciative!!! Highly recommend them.

Update November 2025 - Hawk saves the day for us again! This is the third time we've needed their services in just over a year. Our aging jet pump in the basement, over 20 years old, needed to be replaced urgently. We reached out to Hawk on Sunday with the pump details and emailed them some photos. Incredibly they were able to arrive on Monday with a brand new pump and the techs swapped it out, even took away the old one for us. Sandra is incredibly knowledgeable and helpful, orchestrating everything and keeping us on track. The new pump is running great and our water pressure is better than ever. Hawk is simply the best and we will go to them first every time! Original Review from October 2024: Our usual trusted professional plumber referred us to Hawk Drilling for some specialty services. It was finally time to completely replace our entire old failing water softener system that we had purchased from a different company a long time ago, and to be honest - we were a little nervous about going with a different product & service. But when Chris S. from Hawk's water treatment team came to inspect our existing system and do a proper assessment of our current water conditions, it was immediately obvious that he has vast knowledge with many years of experience. After receiving a spot-on fair quote from him, we scheduled. Chris and his teammate Luis arrived on time to do the job, and what a fantastic job they did! Both are true professionals and have great personalities. Their top-notch workmanship and friendly attitude helped turn our bad situation into a positive experience. In fact, this was the best experience we've had with our water system in over 20 years. They went above and beyond to make sure the job was done right. We are 100% pleased and will be choosing Hawk for everything related to our equipment and well from now on, best of the best! Big thank you to Chris and Luis!

I found myself in need of a new well after the point well I inherited began failing. Mohawk was responsive and direct about the situation in terms of logistics and price. They held my hand as I learnt about the whole process. We had to go a bit deeper than planned and the water we hit, unfortunately, had a strong sulfur smell. I have some college kids living at the house and boy— going to class smelling like sulfur wasn’t going to fly. Chris took time to meet with me way after hours and they rearranged their schedule to get a system in right away to take care of the smell. 10/10 they really went above and beyond. I’m glad I went with them.

I live in an area notorious for water well issues. I have had problems with water to varying degrees for years, as have many of my neighbors. Things finally came to a breaking point when my well started running dry. I reached out to Hawk based on their reviews and information on their website. Everyone I dealt with was incredibly friendly and helpful. They had someone out to my house to do a flow test with a day or two, and I'm located near Albany, so it is a little bit of a hike from Ballston Spa. There were some challenges along the way diagnosing the issue(s) with my well due to factors beyond anyone at Hawk's control. All I can say is they were responsive and took an approach of "we are going to figure this out and come up with a solution." Sandra in the office was always friendly and helpful. The treatment guy Chris was very knowledgeable and takes pride in his work. He went so far as texting me and emailing me off hours to check on how things were going and he worked up multiple quotes to best fit my needs and budget. Ultimately, I ended up needing a new well drilled, and that is where Jeremy came in. I was apprehensive because there are no guarantees in well drilling. If your furnace or roof need to be replaced, a contractor comes in and says "this is how much it will cost and it will be new and fully functional when I am done." With a well, its more like "this is how much it costs to drill, but there is no guarantee we will find water or what the quality will be if we do." I felt like I was giving them a blank check, but what choice did I have? I need water. Jeremy put my mind at ease as much as he could without making me any promises he couldn't keep. He really knows his craft and his expertise paid dividends! Long story short, he chose the right spot and I now have a great new well that produces plenty of good quality water. On top of that, their pricing was incredibly fair and not once did anyone try to upsell me on anything or charge me for work I didn't need. Everything from testing, to drilling, to excavation, to treatment was top notch and very fairly priced. There were a couple of hiccups along the way, but everyone at Hawk went out of their way to make it right when they happened. I can't recommend this company highly enough. Thanks to everyone at Hawk!
