After the water survey has taken place, the borehole drilling can proceed at the identified spot.

Once the borehole drilling commences, communication with the client is clear and persists at all times. This way the client is updated in terms of the depth of drilling, costs involved and general geological findings.

Equipping the borehole
Upon completion of the borehole, the pump installation can be planned.
General factors influencing the size of the pump to be installed will be the following:

The clients' water demand.Bungoma | Burnt Forest | Chwele
The depth of the hole.
Actual water yield of the borehole

Depending on the geological formation, there should be a borehole rest period before the pump can be installed. The drilling contractor will advise the client accordingly.

General Borehole Drilling Facts to Take Note Of Are:

The exact depth, of where the water is located, cannot be established by the drilling contractor nor the water surveyor.
It is important to note that it is never a 100% guarantee that any hole will yield water, the amount and water quality can also not be guaranteed by the drilling contractor and water surveyor.
Making use of a hydrologist or traditional water diviner will increase your chances of having a successful borehole that will yield a sufficient amount of water.
The risk of the borehole drilling lies with the property owner. The client will still be liable for the drilling costs irrespective of a borehole yielding water or not.

A call-out fee of 1000 including one hour of labor will be charged for maintenance and will be paid in advance before the technicians are dispatched.

THE ABOVE IS JUST AN ESTIMATE, NOT A QUOTATION.

The 4 Step Water Borehole Drilling Process

We've all seen the posters plastered on walls and fences the suburbs over: "borehole water".

Those whose fences, walls and gates boast the poster are the only ones whose lawns are still green, whose cars are pristine, whose water bills are still lean... All thanks to a water borehole!

So, especially in these trying times, we all know what a borehole is and where the water comes from, or do we?

With the dams drying up, the municipal water costs going up, and the people getting fed up; it is more important than ever to understand and consider alternative water sources.

You Want A Water Borehole; Now What?

For some the decision to invest in a domestic water borehole is a simple one; others are daunted by the unfamiliar process.

In an effort to help you overcome the element of unfamiliarity, and thereby help our country save water by making it easier for you to come to a decision to implement your own domestic water borehole this summer, Bestcare Borehole Drilling company is proud to help you better understand water borehole drilling.

So what are the steps in drilling a borehole? We'll explain everything below.

The Water Borehole Drilling Process In 4 Steps

Step 1 - Hydro-geologists site the borehole

The very first thing that needs to be determined is where the water is, and how we're going to get to it.

That's why we employ hydro-geologists who make use of a variety of borehole drilling methods to assess the geophysical properties of the underlying area.

These are the guys that help us ensure we're not drilling into natural hazards or man-made infrastructure (pipelines, cables, phone lines, etc).

Step 2 - Drilling and Construction

Once the hydro-geologists have helped us prepare a path for borehole drilling, we follow through and construct the borehole.

It's not as easy as Moses and the rock, unfortunately, and, contrary to popular belief, an endless supply of water won't just surge to the surface following the drilling of the borehole; there are still steps to follow and processes to be completed.

Once the borehole has been drilled the necessary unstable lengths of the borehole are steel cased in an effort to reinforce the 'tube'.

Step 3 - Determining the yield of the borehole

In order to most accurately gauge the yield of a domestic water borehole an aquifer test is performed.

This involves installing a test pump and pumping borehole water for a fixed set of variables; a given time at a given rate, and then assessing the test's impact on the water level in the borehole.

Maximum yield is achieved by increasing the abstraction rate, ensuring optimum drawdown of water in the borehole.

Step 4 - Pumping and piping the borehole

The kind of pumping system and piping installed in your new domestic water borehole will largely depend on the intended use of the borehole water.

THE PROCESS TO OWN A BOREHOLE

1. QUOTATION REQUEST

We encourage our clients to request a basic drilling quotation before a site visit..

1. QUOTATION ACCEPTANCE

After the completion of the site visit and acceptance of the quotation, terms and conditions allocates a spot on the drilling list.

1. DRILLING PREPARATION

The drilling process is planned and prepared on-site before we commence with the drilling to ensure the client's best interest is kept at heart.

1. CLEANING PROCESS

We clean the premises and surrounding area after drilling. We will strive to return the area back to its normal state. Items of value should just be removed prior to the drilling process.

1. FLOW RATE TESTING AND WATER QUALITY TEST

A water sample is tested to establish the quality of water. Test pump installed to determine per hour flow rate of borehole and installation depth.

1. QUOTATION FOR INSTALLATION

After the flow rate test was completed we provide you with another quote for the borehole pump and other water services requirements.

1. INSTALLATION OF BOREHOLE PUMP

After acceptance of the installation quotation we install the borehole pump and any other installations as required.

1. CUSTOMER SATISFACTION

We visit our customers after installation to welcome you to the borehole family and ensure that you are satisfied with the completed work done on your premises.

1.The Geology

The geology or rock formations affect the amount of time and resources that are used on the borehole. Some terrain might be too soft and cause the borehole walls to collapse in on itself, this creates difficulty in casing and removal of the borehole equipment.

Other boreholes might contain hard rock, which takes longer to penetrate. Our drillers are well versed with all sorts of formations and employ various methodologies to overcome the type of geology. All these risks are factored into the cost of the borehole.

2.The location

The location of the Borehole from our operations site affects the costs of mobilizing the equipment to the site of the Borehole.

3.Size of the Borehole

Upon advice from a hydrogeologist who does the initial survey, we work upon a recommended depth of how deep the borehole should be. This is usually charged in meters.

4.Cost of lining and packing the Borehole.

We charge per meter to cast the Borehole with Plastic or Steel casing. The lining of the borehole is essential to avoid the walls collapsing or impurities entering the water. We also insert a gravel pack along the sides of the casing to enable filtration of the water to occur.

5.Pump System

We install a submersible pump system. The type of pump that is installed is dependent upon the depth of the borehole, the flow, and pressure of the water.

6.Water Analysis

A Chemical analysis is conducted on the water to assess the contents of the water and gives an indication of the suitability for use. Some of our Boreholes have had such pure contents that the water has been bottled and sold while numerous other boreholes are used for domestic use, construction or commercial purposes. Our detailed water analysis assesses that you have the right quality and quantity of water for use.
