Even the most professionally drilled well won’t function safely or efficiently without proper sealing. Unsealed or poorly sealed wells can lead to contamination, structural damage, and non-compliance with local and state codes. That’s where professional well grouting comes in. At Locust Pump & Well Drilling Inc., we offer trusted, code-compliant well grouting services for both residential and commercial properties across Locust, NC, and surrounding areas—including Stanly, Cabarrus, Union, Anson, Rowan, and select parts of Mecklenburg County.
We use high-quality grouting materials and proven techniques to properly seal new and existing wells, protect groundwater, and extend the life of your water system. Call

What Is Well Grouting and Why Does It Matter?
Grouting is the process of sealing the space between the well casing and the borehole wall using a durable, water-resistant material—typically cement or bentonite. This step is essential in preventing surface water, contaminants, and debris from entering the well and reaching your water supply. It also adds structural stability and helps maintain groundwater protection.
Without proper grouting, your well becomes vulnerable to bacteria, chemicals, and other unwanted substances. Worse, you risk violating environmental and health codes. Whether you’re installing a new well or sealing an old, unused one, grouting is a must for long-term safety and performance.
New Well Grouting for Residential Systems
At Locust Pump & Well Drilling Inc., we grout every new well according to North Carolina state and county regulations. Once the well casing is in place, we pump grout into the annular space (the gap between the casing and the drilled hole) using specialized equipment to ensure full coverage and compaction. This seals off potential contamination pathways and strengthens the entire system from the start.
Our team works with residential homeowners to ensure every new well we drill is
fully sealed and ready for use, helping you pass inspections and protect your investment.
Grouting Abandoned or Unused Wells
If you have an old well on your property that’s no longer in use, it must be properly sealed. An open or unused well can pose serious health and safety risks, from groundwater contamination to structural collapse. Our team provides full grouting and sealing services for abandoned wells, helping you stay compliant with state guidelines while protecting your land and water sources.
We follow the North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality (NCDEQ) standards for proper decommissioning, using
approved grouting materials and fill methods to close off the well permanently and responsibly.
Expert Grouting Repairs & Maintenance
Over time, grout can deteriorate due to soil shifts, erosion, or improper installation. If you suspect that your well seal has weakened—or you’re experiencing signs of water contamination or pressure changes—it’s time for an inspection. Our technicians offer grout evaluations and repairs, using reliable sealing products and professional application methods to restore your well’s integrity.
We also recommend
periodic maintenance inspections to monitor your grout’s condition and ensure continued compliance with safety and environmental standards.
