Can you conduct borehole installation yourself?

You cannot install a borehole by yourself because it requires deep drilling, far enough to extract substances within the ground, and this requires specialized machinery. Therefore, only borehole drillers can drill a borehole and Snupit can help you find the best ones in Cape Town

How long does a borehole last and why do you need it?

If the borehole installation is done right, a good borehole can last up to 50 to 80 years and has low maintenance costs for the first decade or so. You need boreholes because they serve as a self-sufficient water source, extracting large amounts of water for many companies.

Choosing the right location for borehole drilling

Even though you can find water reserves at any point underground, it’s not possible for borehole drillers to drill anywhere. Boreholes are usually installed in grounds that have higher quantities of water or other minerals that can be extracted. Hydrogeologists survey the ground to determine underground water levels. It’s not advisable to install a borehole in your garden unless you need 15 000 litres of water per day.

How much does it cost to drill a borehole?

Borehole installation can cost from R60,000 to R100,000 roughly, but it can cost more depending on how deep underground you need to dig and the amount of material being used, such as the borehole. Other factors include the type of rock that needs to be drilled, ground conditions, required equipment and other service related costs.
