Borehole Site Surveys

Drill Exactly Where The Water Is - Not One Meter Off

A borehole is only as good as the water beneath it. Our advanced site surveys combine satellite hydro-mapping with on-site resistivity testing because hitting a productive aquifer first time saves you tens of thousands of rand and weeks of rework.

Why a Borehole Survey Matters

Know Before You Drill

A professional borehole survey is the fastest way to confirm water, depth, and budget before a rig ever reaches your property. Ultra Bore’s hydro-geological survey service pinpoints the optimal drill spot, estimates yield, and highlights any underground risks – so you can proceed with complete confidence, fixed costs, and zero “dry hole” anxiety.

Remote Data Sweep
We pull satellite imagery, rainfall history, and geological maps for your exact GPS plot.
Field Testing & Mark-Out
Resistivity probes map water-bearing fractures; technician stakes the optimal drill spot.
Digital Survey Pack
You receive a PDF with depth estimate, expected yield, risk factors, and fixed-price drilling quote.

Frequently asked questions

Why can’t we skip the survey and just drill?
A survey costs a fraction of the borehole and prevents dry holes, excessive depth, and pump‑eating sand layers.
What technology do you use?
Satellite hydro‑mapping plus on‑site electrical resistivity testing to read sub‑surface moisture bands.
How accurate is the depth estimate?
Within ±5 m in most Gauteng geology, giving you reliable budget numbers.
Is the survey fee credited if I drill with Ultra Bore?
Yes, up to 100 % of the survey cost is deducted from your drilling invoice if we proceed within six months.
