It seems like you got quoted the "kano" price for your deep well!!
20K!??? LOL Our deep well when it was dug and done, it just came up to
8K that includes the material and the labor. The usual practice is
that whatever they charge you for the "tabay" or the concrete cylinder
is also the same price for the labor. Let's say one concrete cylinder
cost is 300pesos, the labor is also 300pesos. To compute if you have
15 concrete cylinders put in for the well that comes up to 4.5k plus
4.5k for labor. That only comes up to 9k. 20K!??? This was done by a
reputable and well recommended well digger. So far we never had a
problem with our wells.
With regards to Panay Electric Company, I think that also involves
paying for deposit for them to install the meter to your house. So
don't be surprised if it comes up to that price. Everything that gets
paid to Panay Electric Co., you get a receipt. If there's no receipt
then it means something else.

> That is the going rate for PECO (Panay Electric Co.) to do the
initial hookup and install a new meter. We paid P20,000 to have the
diggers come in and dig a well a cap it. It's also important to dig
the well at the right time. The end of dry season (June) is the best
time to drill one because the water table is at it's lowest. If you go
ahead and drill a well now, expect to pay to have the diggers come
back and make it deeper in a few months when the water table is lower.
You'll also need to spend for the hand pump/electric pressure pump,
the pvc piping and the labor to install it. We just finished our home
in Ledesco and still are finding things that need to be done.
