Who is B&H?

Three generations of drilling

B&H Well Drilling & Pump Service, Inc. has been a familiar name in the water well industry in Central Missouri since starting the business in 1989, and has been thriving since.

The Bonnot family name has been associated with the water well industry since the 1950s — in 1953 Greg’s dad Edward (Cap) and his uncle Don Bonnot started Bonnot Brothers Rotary Well Drilling. Greg was alongside them as a child and right up until their retirement in 1984. After graduating high school and getting married, Greg and Donna, with the knowledge and support of their families, made a leap of faith, bought their first drilling rig and went into business for themselves.

The B stands for Bonnot. The H is out of respect for Earl and Margaret Heinlein, who owned and operated Heinlein Pump Service out of the Stony Hill area and helped them get established around Hermann. Incorporating their name felt like the right thing to do, and that is how B&H Well Drilling got off the ground. After Earl retired, we moved into the other side of the well business — the service and installation of well pumps.

Before you hire anyone

Lowest price often reflects what a contractor can afford to put into his work. Always ask about operations and equipment, proof of liability, workers compensation, and whether they are licensed with the Missouri Department of Natural Resources and/or the Missouri Water Well Association.
