Three services.One companythat knows your ground.

Drilling. Pump service. Water treatment. One operation. One phone call.

Cribley handles the full water system — from drilling the well to keeping the pump running to treating what comes out of the tap. Most customers in Washtenaw and Livingston Counties who call us once keep calling us for everything. That is how we prefer it.

The full system.From the aquifer to the tap.

  1. Rotary rig · Michigan aquifer
    PHASE 01New construction · replacement · geothermal

    Well drilling.From permit to first clean glass of water.

    Cribley drills new residential, agricultural, and geothermal wells across Washtenaw and Livingston Counties. We handle the full process — permit filing, site evaluation, rotary drilling to the aquifer, steel casing and grouting, pump installation, and a water quality test before we leave the property.

    • Residential new construction & replacement wells
    • Agricultural and irrigation wells
    • Geothermal loop field drilling
    • Permit filing and county coordination
    • Post-drill water quality testing

  2. Submersible service · SE Michigan
    PHASE 02Repair · diagnostics · emergency

    Pump & emergency service.We diagnose before we recommend.

    When the pump stops working — no water, low pressure, air in the lines — time matters. Cribley pulls the pump, runs diagnostics, and tells you honestly whether repair or replacement makes more sense for your system. We serve emergencies across the full service area.

    • Submersible pump repair and replacement
    • Pressure tank service and replacement
    • Low-pressure and no-water diagnostics
    • Jet pump and shallow-well service
    • Emergency response — 24/7 year-round

  3. Residential install · SE Michigan
    PHASE 03Champion Water Treatment

    Water treatment.Test first. Install second. Never the other way around.

    Champion Water Treatment — now under the Cribley umbrella — handles the full range of residential and commercial water quality issues. Iron staining, hard water scale, sulfur odor, PFAS, arsenic, nitrates — each problem has a specific treatment. We test, then install the equipment that matches what the test finds.

    • Water softeners for hard water
    • Iron and manganese filtration (Rustbuster)
    • Reverse osmosis for PFAS and nitrates
    • UV disinfection for bacterial contamination
    • Whole-house carbon filtration

Why one company

Three companies.Three diagnostics. No one accountable.

A driller who also services pumps knows how the casing and pump interact. A water treatment operation tied to the drilling team understands what the aquifer at a given depth carries. Separate these services across three companies and you get three different diagnoses, three different bills, and no single party accountable for the whole water system.

Cribley absorbed Champion Water Treatment because the integration made technical sense. New-well customers now get a baseline water test from the same company that will service the pump five years later. That history stays on file. We have well records going back to 1946.
