MAHONING COUNTY, OHIO · 60 MIN FROM OUR CORTLAND OFFICE
Beloit's town center sits inside the Sebring Village water system's service area, and that system draws from the Mahoning River and lists a long set of treatment steps, chlorine among them. Homes on private wells face a different job: rock lies a median 52 feet down in the logs within 5 miles, so a new well usually needs a long casing.

WHAT WE DO IN BELOIT
Whether you’re on a private well or city water, the same crew handles the water source, the pressure, and what comes out of the tap.
On the village line the water carries chlorine: EPA lists gaseous chlorination for the Sebring Village system and no chloramine step. A whole-home CityLux takes it out if you'd rather not taste it. A home on a well starts from a water test instead.
Beloit wells are among the county's deepest, second of 21 Mahoning County towns by median depth, and the middle half of logs finish between 100 and 186 feet. With rock starting deep, a new well usually carries a long run of casing before the drill is working in rock.
Water rests a median 32 feet down. Yields run a median 12 gallons a minute, with 8 or less in one log in four, so on a slower well the pump is chosen not to outrun what the well can give.

The Sebring Village system is run by local government for 6,058 people through 2,438 connections. It takes surface water through an intake on the Mahoning River and lists one treatment plant and 3 storage tanks. EPA lists coagulation, flocculation, sedimentation and rapid sand filtration to take out particles. Powdered activated carbon handles taste and odor, and granular activated carbon helps control disinfection by-products. Gaseous chlorine goes in before and after filtration, pH adjustment and an orthophosphate inhibitor control corrosion, and fluoride is added.
At a tap on that line, the disinfectant is chlorine. Chlorine removal covers the CityLux system, and the village's water report covers everything else it measured.
Of the 1,668 logs near Beloit that record depth to rock, the middle half find it between 32 and 89 feet, and one in four has 89 feet or more of soil and loose material on top. That upper ground is cased off: pipe runs from the surface into the top of the rock with grout sealed around it, so surface water can't run down the outside.
Below the casing the well is open hole in rock until it takes in enough water. The rock mapped at the town center is the Allegheny and Pottsville Groups, Pennsylvanian shale, siltstone, limestone and sandstone. Residential drilling covers the job, and the cost page explains how a long casing run and extra footage shape a quote.
WATER IN MAHONING COUNTY
In USGS samples from across Mahoning County, taken 1978–2001, 60% of wells were hard or very hard. The full record, and what it means for treatment, is on the Mahoning County page; your own well gets its own test.
WHY BELOIT CHOOSES CHATFIELD
Rated 4.7 on Google across 104 reviews. Here is what working with us looks like, in a customer’s words.
“We bought a new home November 1st, 2024 and low and behold it had a collapsed well. After several quotes, we chose Chatfield drilling, and we’re glad we did! Matt & his team arrived quickly to assess the situation, and formulate a plan to get the H2O flowing again. Even through the holidays, they did not waiver. Eric their driller worked hard in the brutal NE Ohio cold to pound a well for us. We are beyond pleased, and have fantastic water!”

A LITTLE CLARITY
Our Cortland office (7115 Hoagland Blackstub Rd. Unit C, Cortland, OH 44410) is about 60 minutes and 44 miles by road from Beloit. Service calls for Beloit are scheduled from there.
Beloit and the municipalities around it: Sebring, Smith Township, Goshen Township, Alliance, Berlin Township, Salem, Deerfield Township, Lexington Township, Washington Township, Limaville. Beyond those, the rest of the 21 Mahoning County communities on our service map, from the same office.
Ohio’s well-log database lists 1,856 domestic wells within 5 miles of Beloit: the median is 136 feet deep, and the middle half fall between 100 and 186 feet. The median well was logged at 12 gallons per minute. Drillers reached bedrock at a median of 52 feet. Your own well's depth depends on the ground under your lot.
Fluoridation is on EPA's list of treatment steps for the Sebring Village system, which covers the town center, so fluoride is added before the water reaches the taps on that line. A private well gets nothing added; what's in it comes from the ground, and a test of that well is the way to see what's there.
The logs within 5 miles give a median of 12 gallons a minute across 1,662 wells that record one, with the middle half between 8 and 20. A household can usually run on a well in that range when the pump and pressure tank suit it. Your own well's yield is measured when it is test-pumped, and the pump is sized from it.
