Water Bore Drilling depends on many factors

Every bore hole is unique because the combination of factors that impact the components and processes used will always be different. A bore hole drilling cost is not just a number on a paper, but a carefully calculated formula affected by the conditions.

We start off by providing you with an indicative quote. Once we start drilling, there are 4 factors which will impact the final price. As soon as the bore hole construction is complete, we calculate the final costs and provide you with an invoice. In almost all cases, the final cost is very close to the indicative cost. Our 30 years drilling experience means we can simply estimate better than the rest.

Harry installed 3 water bores sunshine coast for us. It's not every day that you can say the workmanship was so good, that this water well will last hundreds of years, but THIS REALLY WILL. amazing quality, highly skilled in finding water and top blokes to boot.

Pricing Factors

The factors which affect bore hole drilling and construction costs

irrigation

The Geology

 

 

The type of ground and geology of the site where you want to drill a borehole are the biggest factors that will impact the borehole price. It is critical to have an experienced bore hole  professional perform the geological research of the site to assess whether it’s rock, sand or clay you are dealing with.

     

     

    water wells

    The Depth

     

     

    Another important factor will be the depth of the bore hole, because groundwater will flow differently at different locations. This again can be found by the geological research done by your selected bore hole contractor, so experience is key in order to get the most accurate estimates as possible.

     

    monitoring bores

    The Function

     

    The purpose of your bore hole may also play a factor in the overall cost because there are no plug-and-play one-size-fits-all bore hole solutions. Every project is completely customised to each customer and situation.

    The Time & Materials

     

    Depending on the other 3 factors, the machinery, time and materialsd required will vary.
