Frequently Asked Questions

  • We achieve 99% water success rate west of the Darling Scarp, based on WA groundwater data and 9,000+ completed bores.

    If your property is in a higher-risk zone, we’ll let you know.

  • We use 4,000+ local bore records, WA hydrogeological mapping, and data from bores we’ve drilled nearby.

    Our estimates usually land within 1 metre of the final depth.

  • Pricing depends on the depth of your bore, geology, and pump selection.

    We provide accurate depth estimates using local bore records and transparent pricing before any work begins.

  • We size the pump after drilling, once we know your bore’s actual flow and pressure.

    This ensures you only pay for the correct pump, with options from trusted brands like DAB and Lorentz.

    Pump systems typically start from around $2,000.

  • Yes. We have both tricone and down-the-hole hammer equipment to drill through hard rock and difficult formations.

    If conditions increase complexity or require additional water/cartage, we’ll let you know upfront.

  • Most domestic bores are drilled, cased and developed in one day.

    Pump installation is typically done the same day or shortly after, depending on site conditions.

  • Some areas require a 5C / 26D licence depending on the groundwater abstraction class.

    If needed, we can handle the application for you (additional $330 including fees).

  • We provide a 10-year workmanship warranty on the bore installation.

    Pumps and electrical components are covered by manufacturer warranties from the brands we install.

  • If your water flow is weak, inconsistent, or has stopped entirely, your pump may be failing. We diagnose pump performance quickly.

  • Yes, we install high-quality DAB and Lorentz submersible pumps suited to WA conditions.

  • Yes, we provide bore cleaning, flushing, development and iron treatment.

  • Many pump replacements can be completed same day, depending on access.

  • Yes, we offer iron treatment systems and bore cleaning services.
