What our customers say
The team explained everything upfront and the borehole was running within the week. We no longer worry when the municipal water goes off.
Our water had a brown tint from iron. They installed a filtration system and the difference was immediate.
Quick to respond on WhatsApp, fair quote and neat work. They connected the tanks and borehole so it switches over automatically.

Borehole drilling and new installations

Something else you want to know? Ask us on WhatsApp.
Can I call you after hours or on weekends?
Yes. We are available 24/7, including weekends and public holidays. If your pump has stopped or you have no water, call or WhatsApp us any time.
How much does a borehole cost?
It depends mainly on how deep we need to drill, the ground conditions and the pump and filtration you choose. After a site visit we give you a written quote with each part itemised, so there are no surprises.
How deep will my borehole be?
Depth varies from property to property. We advise on the expected depth during the site visit, based on the area and the ground conditions.
How long does the work take?
Drilling a residential borehole is usually done in a day or two once the rig is on site. Installing the pump, filtration and plumbing typically follows within a few days.
Is borehole water safe to drink?
Not always straight from the ground. We recommend a water test and install the right filtration or purification system so the water is suitable for how you want to use it.
Do I need permission to drill a borehole?
Requirements depend on your municipality and how much water you plan to use. We will tell you what applies to your property and what you need to register.
Do you work outside Centurion?
Yes. We work within about 100 km of Centurion, including Midrand, Pretoria and Johannesburg. If your area is not listed, send us a message and we will confirm.
