Mutare Boreholes' Borehole Drilling Process:

  1. Preparations and Site Prepping: Once the borehole water survey is completed and all necessary approvals and payments are made, Mutare Boreholes schedules the drilling process. The team arrives at the site and prepares the area where drilling will take place. It is important to notify neighbors about the drilling, as it can be loud and messy.
  2. Commencing the Drilling: Mutare Boreholes employs precision drilling equipment, including a compressed air pneumatic hammer and drill. The drill rod is rotated while the pneumatic hammer strikes the rock, shattering it. The broken rocks are then removed using compressed air. The drilling process progresses rapidly, with teams often drilling up to 120 meters per day.
  3. Inserting 180mm PVC Borehole Casing: During drilling, the first few meters of the borehole may be loose sand. Mutare Boreholes drills until they reach the underlying rock layer. At this stage, a steel casing is inserted to prevent the sand from filling the borehole. The drilling continues beyond the casing.
  4. Soil Sampling and Water Source Identification: Mutare Boreholes takes soil samples every meter of the drilling process. This is crucial for determining the appropriate drill bits and certifying the borehole in conjunction with the yield test. The team also identifies the presence of water and assesses its pressure to ensure it meets the desired yield requirements.
  5. Borehole Development and Cleaning: Once a suitable water source is found, the borehole needs to be cleared of debris and sediment. Mutare Boreholes employs a process called "developing a borehole" where compressed air and municipal water are used to flush and clean the borehole. This step is essential to maintain the longevity and efficiency of the borehole.
  6. Inserting 140mm PVC Borehole Casing and Sump: To ensure a clear and uninterrupted water supply, Mutare Boreholes inserts the final PVC casing in the borehole. A sump is added to effectively manage the water flow and maintain clarity.
  7. Special Extras (Additional Promotional Fee): In addition to the core drilling process, Mutare Boreholes offers special extras for those looking for additional services. These include double casing for extra borehole strength, deepening of boreholes beyond 40 meters, borehole capacity testing, borehole water quality testing, borehole installation with AC or solar systems, and borehole water storage systems.
