HISTORY

Michael G. Daisey is a fourth generation well driller. His family has been in the water well industry since the 1940’s, when Mike’s great-grandfather, Irvin J. Daisey, was driving wells for local residents in the lower Sussex county area. His grandfather, Charles I. Daisey, built his first driven rig in the early 1940’s, then in the late 1940’s he built his first of 3 cable tool rigs. In the 1950’s he kept improving his rigs. George I. Daisey, Mike’s father, grew up helping his dad, Charles in the family business in the late 1950’s. His grandfather, Irvin, died when George was a young boy, so he never got to work around him. George and Charles worked together for many years, and built a top head drive mud rotary rig to install plastic wells in 1980.

In May of 1985, George I. Daisey made the decision to go into business for himself, so started “George I. Daisey and Son Well Drilling”. George built his first rig based on a 3” x 4” picture in a well drilling magazine, to get started with, since buying a rig was too expensive. He did the designing, assembly and welding himself. Mike helped with some things.

Ten days later George was drilling his first well with his home-built rig, and she is still in operation today with a few small modifications. He built it on a trailer he made. About a year later he found and restored a 1973 1 ton Chevy small bed truck; then upgraded to a 1976 C60 Chevy truck which he also restored, and now she is on a 2001 Chevy truck.
George’s wife, Mary, helped him at first with drilling the wells and hook-ups until his dream came true to make it truly George I. Daisey and Son. The well drilling business was in George’s blood, and Michael grew up helping his dad and grandfather, so it’s in his blood, too. When the business had grown enough, Michael G. Daisey came home and worked full-time in the business. When Mike became a certified, licensed well driller, the name changed to “Daisey’s Well Drilling, Inc.”

Mike has been to Gould’s Pump school at the New York plant. He learned most from observing, listening, asking questions and “hands on”, actual experience. Mike took over day-to-day operations in 1994 with George passed away. Now Mike and (mom) Mary work side by side. The business has grown from a father and son, to a mother and son operation with one employee. Our motto is “We treat our customers the way we want to be treated”.
