FAQ
Everything You Need To Know
What is water bore drilling and why might I need it?
Water bore drilling is drilling a hole into the ground to access groundwater. You might need it if you are in an area without easy access to municipal water supplies or a reliable water source for irrigation, livestock or other purposes.
How long does it take to drill a residential bore?
The time to drill a residential bore varies depending on ground conditions, depth required, and access to the site. In stable areas with soft ground, it may only take 1–2 days. In harder formations or remote areas, it can take longer. Factors such as water table depth, site clearing, and weather can also influence the timeline. A site inspection helps determine the likely duration, and experienced drillers will provide a clear timeframe before starting.
Can a bore be drilled in any location?
Not every property is suitable for bore drilling. The success of a bore depends on the geology of the area, groundwater availability, and local regulations. Some locations may have fractured rock, saline water or poor recharge rates. A qualified driller will usually assess your site using geological maps or conduct water divining before confirming suitability. They can also advise on depth, flow expectations, and permit requirements specific to your location.
