WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU SAY YES TO A NEW BORE?

The drill team will arrive and commence to drill.

  1. The drilling operation will take from 2 to 8 hours, depending on the depth and the geology encountered. The drill team will line the hole with a Class 9 100mm PVC casing.
  2. They will then pack the outside of the casing with drillers’ gravel. A compressor is then used to air develop the bore.
  3. The next step is the installation of the pump itself.
  4. This is closely followed by the connection to your existing reticulation system. Please note this quotation includes the connection to only one reticulation take-off point.
  5. The licensed electrician will then call on site and make the electrical connection. The Electrician will be happy to discuss any extra electrical works you may need.

 The Boreman is just a phone call away should you require any information or assistance.

 

TURN ON YOUR NEW BORE – FREE WATER!

 

YOUR BORE STRUCTURE INCLUDES:

  1. Lowara Pump and Motor – 2-Year Warranty
  2. Pump is hung on 1 ¼ or 1 ½ Rural Poly
  3. Your Bore Hole is lined with Class 9 100mm PVC Casing and a 6m Slotted Screen
  4. Rainbird Valve Box to protect the top of your bore and provide easy access.
  5. 316 Stainless Steel wire cable
  6. Gravel pack from bottom of bore to water table.

The Boreman drills a minimum of 12m into the water table.  This is to ensure the pump can hang in a minimum of 3-4m of water.  We set the pump 1m above the screen, this is to minimise any future sand intrusion into the pump that would cause undue wear to your bore pump in the future.

OUR CUSTOMERS ALWAYS HAVE THE LAST SAY

 

“100% family owned and operated wins not only on competitive pricing but more so with the service level that only I can only recall from yesteryear, with a smile that’s real, conversation that you get from your best mates. To the management, well done on your staff and to the staff, well done for looking after your management which reflects to clients.  Congratulations.”  – Nick and Sandy.

“I have recently had some substantial work done to my bore, the nature of which I knew nothing about. Ryan, Matt, and Katharine have been amazing and reminded me what real and caring customer service is all about. They broke everything down into layman’s terms and happily put up with my silly questions. Not only that, but they also offer the best prices in the industry and will bend over backwards to make sure they leave with a happy customer. If you are thinking of going with anyone else, do not bother – others advertise that they are specialists, and take a decent fee just to refer you on…Infuriating!  Go direct to The Boreman!!” – Annette

They do not come better than this guy!  I have managed companies before, The Boreman’s after sale service is second to none!!  I even had a problem a year and a half later…he was there straight away and fixed it…it turned out that I had nothing to do with the work he did. This is the company to choose if you want a great bore and amazing service! – Chris Plummer

The Boreman farm is actively used to train staff in conservation, machinery maintenance and drilling techniques.  It is an important part of who we are at The Boreman.
