Small space drilling
City Drilling specialises in small-space drilling for properties where access is tight or limited. Our custom-built drill rig stands only 2.2 metres high, allowing us to work in areas that traditional drilling rigs cannot reach—such as urban gardens, courtyards, narrow driveways, and built-up residential properties.
This specialised service ensures that even clients with minimal space can enjoy the benefits of a reliable borehole. Our compact equipment allows for efficient drilling without compromising depth, water yield, or quality.
Small-space drilling is ideal for city homes, lodges, estates, and any property where standard equipment is impractical. City Drilling’s compact approach delivers professional results with minimal disturbance to your surroundings.
Borehole drilling
City Drilling specialises in high-quality borehole drilling for residential, agricultural, industrial, and commercial use. Every drilling project begins with careful planning and professional siting to ensure you access the best possible water source. Using modern, efficient drilling equipment, our team works with precision to reach the right depth and ensure strong, long-term water production.
We handle all aspects of the drilling process, including preparation, casing, cleaning, and the final development of the borehole. Our methods are designed to optimise your water yield while ensuring structural stability and durability. Whether you’re installing a borehole for household consumption, irrigation, livestock, or business use, we deliver a system that is built to last.
City Drilling prides itself on clean, efficient work and detailed reporting, giving you complete peace of mind from the moment drilling begins. Our goal is to provide a reliable water source that offers independence, convenience, and long-term savings.
Borehole Servicing & repairs
A well-maintained borehole delivers stronger water pressure, cleaner water, and longer system lifespan. Our servicing includes detailed inspections of pumps, pipes, casings, wiring, filtration systems, and control panels. We look for early signs of wear, electrical faults, silt build-up, or declining yield, ensuring problems are addressed before they become costly failures.
If an issue has already developed, our repair team responds quickly and professionally. From broken pumps and blocked pipes to collapsed casings and low-pressure faults, we restore your system with precision. City Drilling uses high-quality parts and trusted repair methods to ensure long-term reliability and consistent performance.
Steel & PVC Casing
Proper casing is essential for protecting your borehole from collapse, contamination, and long-term structural issues. City Drilling offers both steel and PVC casing options, tailored to your soil type, water depth, and drilling conditions.
Steel casing provides maximum strength and is ideal for challenging geological conditions. PVC casing is corrosion-resistant, economical, and suitable for many residential and agricultural applications. Our team assesses your site and recommends the most suitable casing material for optimal durability and performance.
Every installation is performed with precision to ensure a secure, long-lasting borehole that remains stable for decades.
Water Testing & Surveys
Knowing what lies below the surface is essential for a successful borehole. Our water surveys identify the most suitable drilling points by assessing underground water flow, depth, and geological structure. This improves drilling accuracy, reduces risks, and increases the likelihood of a productive borehole.
Once your borehole is operational, we offer comprehensive water testing to ensure safety and quality. We analyse mineral content, pH levels, clarity, bacteria, and potential contaminants. Whether your water is used for drinking, livestock, or irrigation, our testing helps you understand exactly what’s coming out of your borehole—and whether treatment or filtration is required.
Water Tank & Pump Installation
A dependable water system requires more than just a borehole. City Drilling installs durable water tanks and high-performance pumps tailored to your property’s needs. We supply and install storage tanks for household use, irrigation networks, backup supply, and full off-grid systems.
Our team ensures every installation is structurally sound, neatly completed, and integrated correctly with your borehole system. We size and fit pumps according to water yield, depth, and intended usage, ensuring strong pressure and consistent flow. With clean plumbing, safe electrical connections, and high-quality components, City Drilling delivers installations designed for long-term reliability and low maintenance.
Pump Installation
A dependable pump system is the heart of every borehole. City Drilling installs high-quality submersible and surface pumps selected according to your borehole depth, water level, yield, and daily demand.
We ensure correct sizing, safe wiring, clean installations, and optimal pressure output. Whether it’s for a household, irrigation network, or industrial application, our pump installations provide strong, consistent water flow.
We also test and calibrate the system to ensure everything runs smoothly from day one.
Borehole rehabilitation
When a borehole’s performance drops, rehabilitation can restore it without the need for re-drilling. City Drilling uses advanced techniques to clean, re-develop, re-casing, and recover boreholes that are blocked, contaminated, or weakened.
Rehabilitation helps revive water pressure, improve clarity, increase yield, and extend the lifespan of older boreholes. It’s a cost-effective way to restore your water supply while protecting your original investment.
City Drilling’s rehabilitation service is thorough, efficient, and designed to bring failing or neglected boreholes back into full working condition.
Full off-grid systems & solutions
City Drilling provides complete off-grid water solutions for those seeking independence from municipal water supply. Our systems integrate borehole water production with storage tanks, purification systems, pump installations, pressure systems, and solar-powered setups.
We design each system according to your needs, ensuring steady, reliable water flow for homes, farms, and businesses. Whether you want a small household setup or a full agricultural system, our solutions are built for efficiency, safety, and long-term sustainability.
With an off-grid system, you reduce utility bills, gain water security, and enjoy consistent supply—even during municipal outages or restrictions.
