Need advice on depth?
Groundwater differs from one property to the next. We assess your site and explain what to expect before any work starts.
Drilling and groundwater work only, not general household plumbing.
Rotary air percussion drilling for homes, gardens and commercial sites, with casing to keep the hole stable.
Submersible pumps sized to your borehole, with dry-run protection and a control box.
Step-drawdown testing to estimate what your borehole can sustainably deliver, so the pump is sized correctly.
Air flushing for silted or blocked boreholes, and deepening of existing boreholes where suitable.
Groundwater depth varies from property to property. These tiers help you plan. Your final cost is based on actual metres drilled and casing installed, itemised per metre.
Shallow
Where groundwater is closer to the surface.
Typical residential
A common range for household supply and garden use.
Deeper
For harder ground or higher-demand properties.
Commercial / agricultural
Larger supply needs, assessed individually.
How billing works: your quote lists mobilisation, drilling per metre, casing per metre and pump installation separately, and you are billed for the metres actually drilled.
Underground water depends on local geology. We assess your site to give you the best chance of a good strike, but no driller can guarantee water or its volume before drilling.
Drilling is messy work by nature. We plan to keep it under control and leave your property tidy.
We use trenches and barriers to direct drilling slurry away from lawns, paving and walls, and clean up when we finish.
Talk to the team directly by phone or WhatsApp, with updates as drilling progresses and water is found.
Mobilisation, drilling, casing and pump installation listed separately, so there are no vague lump sums.

Site assessments and quotes are free and without obligation. Only a written quote sets out the work and price. Depth tiers shown on this website are estimates for budgeting only.
Billing is based on the actual metres drilled and casing installed at the unit prices on your quote. If conditions differ from what was expected, We will tell you and agree changes before continuing.
Groundwater and its volume are natural and cannot be guaranteed before drilling. We assess your site to give you the best chance of a good result.
You must provide safe access for the rig and crew, and show Us any underground services (pipes, cables, irrigation, sewer lines) before drilling. You are responsible for any permits or registrations that apply to your property.
Payment terms are on your quote or invoice. Please tell Us early if you need to cancel or reschedule. Costs already incurred may still be charged.
We take reasonable care. To the extent the law allows, We are not liable for damage caused by undisclosed underground services or conditions that could not reasonably be foreseen. Nothing here limits your rights under the Consumer Protection Act. These Terms are governed by South African law.
