Our quotes include everything needed for a complete, professional installation:
Several factors influence your final quote. Understanding these helps you anticipate costs:
The deeper the water table, the more drilling time and fuel costs. Pretoria depths range 50-120m. Each additional 10m adds approximately ZAR 1,500-2,000 to drilling costs.
Hard granite or sandstone layers slow drilling. Soft clay or shale is faster. Pretoria's mixed geology affects drilling speed and equipment wear. We always work with geological maps to predict complications.
Larger diameter boreholes (for higher capacity) require more drilling time. Residential typically use 100-150mm. Commercial may be 150-200mm+.
Standard 0.75-1.5kW pumps cost less than high-capacity 2-3kW systems. Commercial installations use larger pumps, increasing installation costs.
Easy access means faster drilling. Rocky ground or difficult terrain may add time and costs. We assess access during free site visits.
City of Pretoria permits typically cost ZAR 500-1,500 depending on location. We handle all applications and include permit costs in our quotes.
The true value of a borehole lies in long-term water savings. Here's a typical ROI calculation for a Pretoria household:
After payback, you enjoy 15-20+ years of free or minimal-cost water. Total lifetime savings: ZAR 100,000+
