Borehole Drilling & Equipping

From the first survey to a working wellhead, we take the whole borehole through one team — so the yield you are promised is the yield you get.

Overview

Phreatic Aqua Solutions specialises in professional borehole drilling and equipping. With modern rigs and experienced crews, we secure reliable water sources for homes, institutions, farms and commercial sites across Kenya.

What the service includes

Inside borehole drilling

Hydrological survey and permits

We carry out hydrogeological surveys and produce a full report on the findings, including the approximate drilling depth and expected yield. We also process the permits required for drilling under local government regulations.

  • Site hydrogeological survey
  • Survey report with depth and yield estimates
  • WARMA and NEMA permit processing

Drilling, development and pump testing

We drill and develop the borehole, install casings, and run a 24-hour pump test to establish the actual yield before any equipment is sized.

  • Drilling and borehole development
  • Casing and gravel packing
  • 24-hour pump testing to confirm yield

Borehole equipping

Once the yield is known we size and install the pump, rising main, controls and storage so the borehole is delivering water, not just standing open.

  • Pump selection and installation
  • Wellhead, rising main and controls
  • Storage and distribution
  • Solar-powered pumping where mains supply is limited

How we work

From first call to handover

The same four steps on every borehole drilling project.

  1. 01

    Consultation

    We start on your site and with your numbers — what you need the water or power to do, and what the ground and the budget allow.

  2. 02

    Proposal

    You receive a written proposal with the scope, the equipment sizing and the cost. No hidden charges.

  3. 03

    Installation

    Our crews carry out the drilling, fabrication or installation to the agreed specification and programme.

  4. 04

    Inspection

    We test, commission and hand over — then confirm the system is performing as specified.
