In the crucial realm of water security, a borehole is only as strong as its foundation. And at the heart of that foundation lies borehole casing. In Zimbabwe, where access to clean, reliable water is paramount, Nakiso Borehole Drilling stands out not just for drilling deep, but for ensuring the integrity and longevity of every water source with meticulous, top-to-bottom borehole casing.
The Unsung Hero: Why Casing Matters
Borehole casing is arguably the single most important element after the drilling itself. Think of it as the water source’s backbone—a robust pipe, typically made of high-grade PVC or steel, that performs several critical functions:
Structural Support: It prevents the newly drilled hole from collapsing, especially in loose or unstable geological formations.
Water Quality Protection: It seals off the well from surface contamination (like runoff or shallow groundwater) and prevents loose sediment from entering the water column.
Pump Protection: It ensures the downhole equipment, like the submersible pump, operates in a clean, stable environment, maximizing its lifespan.
Without proper casing, a multi-thousand-dollar investment in a borehole can quickly turn into a muddy, contaminated, or collapsed failure.
Nakiso’s Signature: The Top-to-Bottom Difference
At Nakiso Borehole Drilling, the commitment to quality goes beyond simply dropping a pipe into the ground. Their signature Top-to-Bottom Borehole Casing process is a comprehensive approach that guarantees maximum structural integrity for decades to come.
1. Engineered Precision
Nakiso's experienced hydrogeologists and drillers analyze the full geological log of the drilled hole—from the soil layer at the top, through the hard rock layers, and down into the aquifer. This data dictates the exact casing material, diameter, and depth required. They don't just case the water-bearing zone; they secure the entire vertical structure.
2. Sealing the Surface (The 'Top')
The most crucial seal is often overlooked: the surface. Nakiso ensures a meticulously installed sanitary seal at the top of the borehole. This involves a cement or clay grout that fills the annular space (the gap between the casing and the borehole wall) near the surface, acting as an impenetrable barrier against environmental contaminants washing down the hole.
3. Filtering the Aquifer (The 'Bottom')
At the bottom, within the water-bearing rock (the aquifer), Nakiso utilizes specialized slotted or screened casing. This screen is custom-designed to allow the maximum flow of water into the well while effectively filtering out fine sediments and sand. This crucial step protects the pump and delivers cleaner, sediment-free water to the surface.
4. The Full Column Integrity
Every joint is secured, every section is aligned, and the casing is lowered with professional care, guaranteeing a continuous, leak-proof column from the top protective concrete apron right down to the aquifer's entry point. This full-column integrity is what gives a Nakiso borehole its legendary lifespan and reliability.
🇿🇼 Invest Once, Benefit for Life
For homeowners, commercial farms, schools, and communities across Zimbabwe, choosing a borehole isn't a small decision. It's an investment in future resilience.
By insisting on Nakiso Borehole Drilling's Top-to-Bottom Borehole Casing, you are not just buying water access—you are purchasing guaranteed longevity, protected water quality, and structural assurance. Don't settle for shortcuts; the quality of the casing determines the quality of your water for years to come.

Five Facts About Borehole Drilling That You Need To Take Note Of:
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.
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).
3. The Is No 100% Guarantee On Water: 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.
4. Borehole Siting or Water Surveying Is Important: 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.
5. Know The Risks: 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.
