How LiquaFlo Borehole Solutions Brought Sustainable Water to Germiston Homes
When Germiston homeowner Petunia Nkosi finally decided to drill a borehole for her growing family of five, she was fed up with inconsistent municipal water supply and rising bills. After months of unreliable access and rising tariffs, she reached out to LiquaFlo Borehole Solutions with one goal in mind: full water independence.
LiquaFlo’s team knew exactly how to approach her unique challenge. With our tailor-made systems and knowledge of Germiston’s geological layers, we conducted a geo survey and delivered a fully installed 60-meter borehole system—complete with pump set, tank, and booster system—on time and within her budget.
“I’m now completely off-grid when it comes to water,” Petunia says. “I no longer worry about monthly bills, and the water pressure is better than ever.”
What Does It Cost to Install a Borehole in Germiston?
Borehole installation prices in Germiston vary significantly based on location, depth, and system preferences. For a full residential setup, customers can expect to pay anywhere between R10,000 and R150,000. A standard 60-meter borehole for residential use can cost around R82,600, broken down across key components:
Borehole drilling (60m @ R350/m) = R21,000
Steel casing (20m @ R450/m) = R9,000
PVC casing (40m @ R120/m) = R4,800
Submersible cable (75m @ R50/m) = R3,750
Geo survey = R3,000
Tank (2500L) = R3,850
Borehole site establishment = R3,000
Pump set = R7,000
Base plate = R1,500
Pipes and fittings = R4,000
Booster pressure pump = R5,000
Float switch = R1,500
Borehole cover = R1,200
Transport and site establishment = R4,000
Labour = R10,000
Every installation is different. Petunia’s project required deeper drilling due to her area’s geological conditions, but we adapted quickly, ensuring she received a high-quality system within the original timeframe.
