Our Full Borehole Service in Pretoria

1. Borehole Water Surveys in Pretoria

Before we drill, we survey. Using the latest auto-analysis geophysical prospecting technology, we scan your Pretoria property to identify underground aquifers, water fractures, and the exact depth at which water can be intercepted. This is what gives us our 100% strike rate. Read more about our borehole water survey process.

2. Borehole Drilling in Pretoria

We use precision air-compressed pneumatic drilling rigs capable of drilling straight, high-quality boreholes up to 400 metres deep. Our fleet includes small-footprint rigs for residential properties where access and space are tight — ideal for established Pretoria suburbs. Learn more about our borehole drilling service.

3. Pump and Storage Installation

Once your borehole is drilled and the yield is confirmed, we install the correct pump, booster pumps, automatic timers, water tanks, tank platforms, and subterranean piping to deliver water exactly where you need it — house, garden, office, or farm. See our borehole pump and water tank installation options.

4. Borehole Yield Tests and Certificate of Compliance

We measure your borehole's hourly yield over a 4 to 5 hour test period and issue the certificate of compliance required by banks, insurers, and conveyancers when transferring a Pretoria property with a borehole producing 300L or more per hour. Find out more about borehole yield tests and certificates of compliance.

5. SANS-241 Water Quality Testing

We test for more than 30 factors including E. coli, harmful metals, dissolved solids, pH, electrical conductivity, and water hardness. Where needed, we install the correct filtration so your borehole water is safe and pleasant to use. Read more about our borehole water analysis service.

The Cost of Drilling Without a Survey

The biggest cost in any borehole project is the drilling itself. Drilling without a proper water survey is essentially gambling — you may end up with a dry hole and a full invoice. Our Pretoria borehole survey takes that risk off the table. If we say there is water under your property, you can bank on it.
