Wells around Campbell tap the Nacatoch Sand — a unit of the Navarro Group — not the Trinity or the Woodbine that show up on generic North Texas well descriptions. The Trinity runs far too deep to drill for a home (regional projections exceed 3,000 feet), and the Woodbine only yields good water up around Celeste in the northwest of the county. The Nacatoch outcrops in a belt running from north of Commerce southwest through Cash and dips toward the southeast.

Campbell sits east of Greenville on the downdip side of that belt, so the sand tends toward the deeper end of its 300-to-650-foot range and is more likely to carry higher dissolved solids than the fresher updip wells. Nacatoch water is soft and sodium-rich rather than the hard, calcium-heavy water common in Trinity wells to the west.

Hunt County Permit Requirements

Hunt County has no active groundwater conservation district, so well construction follows TDLR statewide standards rather than a local district permit. You do not need a GCD permit before drilling. However, your driller must hold a current TDLR license, the well must meet the Texas Well Construction Standards, and a Well Report must be filed with TDLR after completion. For the full picture, see our guide to Hunt County water well regulations.

One honest wrinkle worth knowing: because there is no district and the Nacatoch recharges very slowly — and faulting can sharply separate one part of the aquifer from another — a neighbor’s heavy pumping can have a real and lasting effect on your well, with no local avenue to address it. We will factor that into how we site and size your well.

DFW Well Service is fully licensed and handles all required TDLR reporting on your behalf. Call (940) 536-8560 for a free estimate on any new well or service project in Campbell or Hunt County.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are homes around Campbell on city water or private wells?
It depends on the parcel. Campbell is a small community in eastern Hunt County, and a lot of the surrounding acreage sits beyond municipal or rural water-supply lines, so those owners rely on a private well. If you are buying land outside town, confirm whether water service reaches your tract before you close — and if it does not, plan on a well.
What aquifer do wells near Campbell tap into?
The Nacatoch Sand, a unit of the Navarro Group, is the principal local aquifer across Hunt County. The Trinity and Woodbine that show up on generic North Texas well descriptions do not apply here — the Trinity is far too deep to drill for a home (regional projections exceed 3,000 feet), and the Woodbine only yields good water up around Celeste in the northwest of the county, well away from Campbell.
How deep are water wells in the Campbell area?
Nacatoch wells in Hunt County generally run about 300 to 650 feet. Campbell sits east of Greenville on the downdip side of the aquifer, so wells here tend toward the deeper end of that range. Exact depth depends on your parcel and is best estimated from nearby TDLR driller's logs.
Is the well water around Campbell hard or salty?
Nacatoch water is usually soft and sodium-bicarbonate in character — not the hard, calcium-heavy water common in Trinity wells west of here. The trade-offs are that total dissolved solids commonly run 500 to 1,500 mg/L downdip, iron is often moderate to high, and the high sodium makes it poor for landscape irrigation. A full water test before you set any treatment plan is money well spent.
Do I need a permit to drill a well in Hunt County?
Hunt County has no groundwater conservation district, so there is no local GCD permit. Your driller still must be TDLR-licensed, the well must meet the Texas Well Construction Standards, and a completion report must be filed with TDLR after the work is done. We handle that reporting for you.
Can DFW Well Service test my water and service my pump in Campbell?
Yes. Campbell and all of Hunt County are in our service area for new wells, pump repair and replacement, water testing, and well rehabilitation. Call (940) 536-8560 and we will get a technician scheduled.
