Drilling a borehole in Zimbabwe, a country with diverse and often complex geology, is a significant investment in water security. However, treating it as a simple "dig and hope" exercise is a recipe for costly disappointment.
Nakiso Borehole Drilling understands that knowledge is power when unlocking sustainable water. We champion the use of advanced geophysical surveys conducted by qualified hydrogeologists to give you the highest chance of a high-yield, safe, and long-lasting borehole.
💧 What is a Hydrogeological Survey?
Simply put, a hydrogeological survey is a detailed scientific investigation of the subsurface to assess the presence, depth, quality, and sustainability of groundwater.
Instead of a vast underground lake, water often flows through aquifers—fractured zones, faults, or porous rock layers beneath the surface.
💰 Save Money, Increase Success: The Top Reasons to Survey
The cost of a preliminary survey is minimal compared to the loss incurred from drilling a dry hole or one with a low, unsustainable yield. Investing in a survey with Nakiso Borehole Drilling is the ultimate way to safeguard your investment.
1. Confirming Water Presence and Yield
The most crucial function is determining if a viable aquifer exists on your property. The survey identifies the geological structures likely to hold significant water, avoiding the tragic waste of time and money on a dry borehole.
2. Determining Optimal Depth and Location
Drilling too shallow misses the reliable water source; drilling too deep needlessly increases cost.
3. Ensuring Water Quality
Groundwater can sometimes be contaminated with natural minerals like fluoride, high salinity, or bacterial pollutants from nearby septic tanks.
4. Protecting Your Investment for the Long Term
By understanding the aquifer's characteristics—its size, recharge rate, and the composition of the surrounding rock—Nakiso Borehole Drilling can recommend the correct borehole design and casing class (like the high-strength Class 9 or 10 favoured in Zimbabwe).

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.
