Can nearby wells predict the cost of a new well in Lac Ste. Anne County?

Nearby records can show historical depth, geology, yield and construction patterns, but they cannot predict an exact new-well depth or price. Use them to test quote assumptions, then rely on a licensed contractor's written site-specific scope.
