Lewisville sits in southeastern Denton County, which is geologically bisected east to west. On the eastern side of the county the Woodbine is the primary residential aquifer; across the central and western county the Trinity takes over, with most domestic wells completing in the upper Paluxy sand or the deeper Twin Mountains sand. Lewisville falls near that transition, so the producing aquifer depends on the parcel. Between the Paluxy and the Twin Mountains sits the Glen Rose Formation — mostly solid limestone that holds little water, so a well is cased through it to reach the sand below. Depth varies meaningfully from one parcel to the next, so there’s no single typical figure for the area.

Drilling rates in Denton County typically run $38–$50 per foot. Mixed formations and occasional hard limestone can affect total project cost. Longer term, the district projects the water level in the deeper Twin Mountains sand under Denton County to drop several hundred feet by 2080 — the steepest decline in the region — which is worth designing a well around.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do homes in Lewisville use city water or private wells?
Most of Lewisville is a built-out suburb served by the City of Lewisville on municipal water, so private wells are less common here than in the rural parts of the county. Where they exist, they are on larger-lot and semi-rural tracts around the edges of town near Lewisville Lake and in the unincorporated areas nearby.
How deep are wells in the Lewisville area of Denton County?
Lewisville sits in southeastern Denton County, near the transition between the eastern Woodbine and the Trinity sands beneath. The producing aquifer depends on the parcel, so there's no single typical depth — we review the driller's logs from neighboring wells before quoting a depth for your property.
Which GCD covers wells in Lewisville?
Lewisville is in Denton County, which falls under the North Texas Groundwater Conservation District. A pre-drilling permit is required, and even exempt domestic and livestock wells must register with the district. DFW Well Service submits the paperwork on your behalf as part of the drilling process.
What does well drilling cost in Lewisville?
Denton County drilling rates typically run $38–$50 per foot. Final cost depends on completion depth, casing, pump, and pressure equipment. We provide a free itemized written estimate after reviewing neighboring driller's logs for your parcel.
Can you inspect a well on a property I'm buying near Lewisville?
Yes. We perform well inspections and flow tests for real estate transactions throughout Denton County. A pre-purchase inspection includes a visual assessment of the wellhead, a flow rate test, and a report suitable for your due diligence file.
Do you handle pump replacements in Lewisville?
Absolutely. We replace and repair submersible pumps, pressure tanks, and associated electrical systems on existing wells throughout Denton County. If your pump has failed or your water pressure has dropped, call us for a same-day or next-day service visit.
Is the well water in Lewisville salty or brackish?
Generally fresh. Lewisville-area wells draw from the Woodbine on the eastern side of the county and the Trinity beneath, which the Texas Water Development Board maps as fresh in this area. The water turns slightly salty only farther downdip, meaning farther along where the layer tilts deeper. After drilling, test for total dissolved solids (a measure of how mineral-heavy the water is), sulfate, and iron.
