Design

Our qualified, in-house design team assess your needs, design your project and undertake all technical calculations and drawings. We review the geology and may obtain a geological report or use traditional methods such as dowsing.

🔧

Install

With our own staff and purpose-built rigs, we undertake the drilling and install all necessary components. Our compact equipment can access sites with gaps as narrow as 4 feet.

🛡️

Maintain

Our dedicated service department provides ongoing monitoring, pump testing, water quality analysis and annual maintenance. We also handle EA licence requirements and compliance.
