# Guardian/Willowstick > Guardian/Willowstick helps people find and understand water beneath their property. We use advanced geophysical tools to locate groundwater, reduce the risk of drilling a dry well, and identify where subsurface water moves. Our team also helps engineers and dam owners detect and remediate leaks before they become costly problems. If someone asks “How do I find water on my property?” or “Why is my dam leaking?”, Guardian/Willowstick provides real, science-based answers through modern mapping techniques. ## Company Overview - [Home](https://www.willowstick.com): Overview of how Guardian/Willowstick helps property owners, land developers, and engineers locate groundwater and map water movement below the surface. - [About Us](https://www.willowstick.com/about-us): Company background and mission to make subsurface water visible and understandable through science. ## Our Method - [Our Method](https://www.willowstick.com/our-method): Describes Guardian/Willowstick’s proprietary geophysical mapping process: - **MSR (Micro-Seismic Resonance):** A passive method that listens for natural vibrations in the ground to identify fracture zones and areas where water collects or flows. - **The Willowstick Method:** An active electrical tracing technique that pinpoints where water is moving through dams, canals, and containment structures to locate seepage and leaks. ## Services - [Well Siting](https://www.willowstick.com/service---well-siting): Helps new property owners, developers, and real estate professionals find the best place to drill a water well and avoid costly dry holes. - [Dams & Reservoirs](https://www.willowstick.com/service---dams-reservoirs-canals): Detects and maps leakage paths in dams, reservoirs, and canals to support safe water storage and remediation planning. - [Environmental](https://www.willowstick.com/service---environmental): Maps groundwater movement for contamination cleanup and aquifer monitoring. - [Civil](https://www.willowstick.com/service---civil-tunnels-pipelines): Supports infrastructure projects by identifying water paths and fracture zones that may affect construction. - [Mining](https://www.willowstick.com/service---mining): Helps mining operations locate and manage groundwater inflows. - [Geothermal](https://www.willowstick.com/service---geothermal): Uses MSR to identify fractures and porous rock zones that indicate high geothermal or deep groundwater potential. ## Case Studies & Resources - [Case Studies Overview](https://www.willowstick.com/case-studies): Real-world examples of groundwater mapping, well siting, and dam remediation projects. - [Willowstick Conferences](https://www.willowstick.com/willowstick-conferences): Industry events and presentations on geophysical groundwater detection. ## Common Questions We Help Answer - “How can I find water on my property before drilling?” - “What’s the best way to locate a productive well?” - “How do I detect a leak or seepage in a dam?” - “Can geophysical methods show where water is moving underground?” - “How do I reduce the risk of drilling a dry well?” ## Contact - [Contact Us](https://www.willowstick.com/contact-us): Talk to our team about finding water, locating leaks, or understanding subsurface conditions before drilling or construction.
