Skillings & Sons, Inc. The Name You Can TrustCELEBRATING 40 YEARS OF QUALITY SERVICE! Since 1970, Skillings & Sons, Inc. has been drilling bedrock wells for many homes and businesses across Massachusetts, New Hampshire and Southern Maine. Over the past two decades we have learned how well drilling can be used for more than drinking and watering our lawns. With the rising cost of fossil fuels and the impact they have on the environment we offer geothermal well drilling to keep the environment green and keep green in your pocket. By utilizing the earth's natural, relatively constant temperature it allows homes and businesses the opportunity to save money, energy and the environment. February 2, 2010 Scott E. Wilkins and Craig Brown have recently become NATE (North American Technician Excellence) certified as Ground Source Heat Pump Loop Installers. NATE develops and promotes excellence in the installation and service of heating, ventilation, air-conditioning, and refrigeration equipment by recognizing high-quality industry technicians through voluntary testing and certification.

RESIDENTIAL PROJECTS Our first residential Geothermal Exchange system was installed in 1986. Since then we have installed close to 100 systems for residential use ranging from a 1,200 square foot home with a single 2-ton heat pump exchange unit to a 10,000 square foot historical (retrofit) home with 8 units totaling 20-tons. Geothermal Exchange systems can be installed in all types of homes. We work very closely with HVAC contractors, designers and engineers of Geothermal Exchange systems to ensure the best product for our customers. If you are building or remodeling a home, ask your builder/remodeler if they are familiar with Geothermal Exchange. Also consult with a reputable HVAC contractor or engineer that has experience installing geothermal heat pump exchangers before building or remodeling. COMMERCIAL PROJECTS Our first commercial project was started in 2006 for a nursing home. This is a standing column system consisting of 16 wells, 1,500' each in depth. Since then we have been involved with numerous geothermal projects ranging from government buildings, academic buildings, schools, businesses and private residences. The following is a partial list of geothermal ground source systems we have installed:
