How To Choose A Reputable Borehole Drilling Company in Zimbabwe!

When choosing a reputable drilling company, there are a few aspects that you need to keep in mind. 

When partnering with a legitimate borehole drilling company, you can look forward to excellent service and value for money, and enjoying great returns on your investment for years to come. 

Here are only a few tips to keep in mind when searching for a reputable drilling company:

IS THE QUOTE STRAIGHTFORWARD OR SHROUDED IN AMBIGUITY? Your drilling quote should be itemised with costs for the different drilling diameters and casings, etc., in an easily understandable fashion. Discuss the quote with the contractor and iron out any uncertainties.

HOW LONG WILL THE DRILLING TAKE? A good drilling company should be able to complete the drilling in a matter of hours. No client wants a drill rig in their yard for days and days. Smaller operators using low-pressure compressors of 14 to 17 bars will take longer to drill a hole than larger contractors.

However, rest assured that Nakiso Borehole Drilling has yet to drill for more than a day on a borehole shallower than 120m in the Zimbabwe area over the past two years.

Fact 1: Know Your Borehole Casings

The Preferred Borehole Casing In Zimbabwe Is Class 9 and 10 (Pressure Classes.)

This is because Class 9 and Class 10 Casings are more collapse resistant. The strength of a Casing is often described as collapse resistance.

Fact 2: Borehole Drilling Depth

The exact depth, of where the water is located, cannot be established by the drilling contractor nor the Water Surveyor (Borehole Siter).

Fact 3: There Is No 100% Guarantee

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.

Fact 4: Siting Is Important
Fact 5: Know The Risks
