Having Your Own Well:

Advantages of a Bored Well:

  • It is for your own private use, to use freely as you wish.
  • A private well is cost effective when compared to rates charged by public water schemes, a bored well has only the initial cost at the start of the project and is not subject to water rates.
  • If you are paying for your water supply we can reduce these charges by sinking a well on your property.
  • It’s a natural source and you know where it’s coming from.
  • Its untreated by chemicals
  • Requires very little maintenance
  • No planning permission is required for a existing dwelling to drill a well.
  • Local authority grants available to houses over 7 years
  • Farmers can claim vat back for the boring of a well at the end of the year on the vat 58 form.

Disadvantages:

  • Newly built homes will not qualify for local authority grant.
  • A dwelling house connected to the water mains or have it in the vicinity do not qualify for a grant.
  • It’s difficult to predict quality and quantity.

Consultation:

  • The process of borehole drilling for your own water well
    starts with an initial consultation on site to discuss your needs.
  • We review your terrain and check that our equipment can access the drilling location & advise on any preparation work that needs to be done prior to drilling commencing.
  • sub-pumpWe set an appointment for work to commence.
  • We look after the complete project from well to pump.
  • Your well is ready to use once the pump has been installed, we recommend that you purchase a submersible pump, this shall be installed down in the well, leaving your pressure tank in a pump house or existing shed that has a power supply.
  • Should you wish to have your well tested we advise to wait about two weeks after drilling when you have used a lot of water from the well in your normal daily routine. The test needs to be carried out by your local laboratory or health board, you will receive a full water analysis.
  • Should your test results show any abnormalities that need treating please contact us and we will refer you to a reputable filtration company.

We have all terrain mats that can be laid on lawns or wet areas to avoid damage when accessing your site .
