WOW, I never thought it was that much. Septic yes but not the well. I appreciate all the info. It really helps with planning.

Seriously! We had a little sticker shock too. Your cost may vary depending on your location, soil type, and distance to underground water sources. But a call to a local contractor should get you a good ballpark. Most septic guys here just wanted to know what size (2 bedroom, 3 bedroom, etc.). Well costs are different because it's by the foot. Ours is right at 300' deep.
