Planning your first borehole project?
Start with these common questions.
What should I tell a drilling company?
Share your site location, what you want to achieve and any information you already have about the ground or an existing borehole. Photographs, access dimensions and a sketch of the site can help a contractor understand the job before a visit.
How can I compare borehole drilling quotes?
Ask each company to set out what its quote includes and excludes. Discuss surveys, drilling, equipment, testing, site reinstatement and ongoing support where relevant. Check how the company handles changes to the scope before agreeing to proceed.
Does a directory listing mean a company is approved?
A listing is a starting point for your own enquiries. Confirm the company’s services, experience, insurance, references and availability directly. Inclusion in this directory is not an accreditation or a guarantee of its work.
