A bore well is a well of 4 1/2″, to 12″ in diameter drilled into the earth for retrieving water. In this 4 1/2″ and 51/2″ Bore wells are commonly for Domestic purposes while 6 1/2 and more are for Commercial / Industrial purposes.

There are several factors which can affect the cost of a borehole installation this includes: underlying hydrogeology, amount of water required, location, the type of pump required.

As long as there is sufficient space on your site or property to construct the borehole you can just about put a borehole anywhere.

There are practical decisions to be made in connection with this, e.g. where do you want the water, where can the above ground pumping infrastructure be housed, where is power available, are there any potential sources of contamination of the borehole? etc.

As part of our no obligation specification and quotation we will visit site to assist you in determining if there is sufficient space for the borehole and the best location to construct it.

During pumping a borehole pump produces a ‘cone of depression’. This is the influence zone of where water is being abstracted. Where possible any new borehole should be outside this zone to ensure that one borehole does not affect another.

We recommend that anyone who wishes to site a borehole close to another speaks to us to gain the specialist knowledge they need to make sure the new borehole does not affect the old borehole.

This depends on the scale of the submersible pump installed but typically a small pump for normal use, e.g. less than 20m3/day abstraction will be very cheap to run.
