Site Review
Access, available drilling area, nearby structures and intended water use are discussed before mobilisation.
Plan the water source properly
Borehole Siting & Drilling in Zimbabwe
A borehole project starts before the drilling rig arrives. We coordinate site information, water surveying, access, drilling requirements and the intended end-use so the borehole can form part of a complete water solution.
Service overview
A coordinated approach to borehole drilling
A borehole project starts before the drilling rig arrives. We coordinate site information, water surveying, access, drilling requirements and the intended end-use so the borehole can form part of a complete water solution.
Our focus is not simply “drill and leave.” The intended water demand, access, pump strategy and storage should be considered early so the borehole can become a usable system.

What the service can include
Clear scope before mobilisation
The final package is adapted to the site, project stage, available information and client responsibilities. These are typical components rather than automatic inclusions.
Water Surveying
Coordination of geophysical or water-siting assessment appropriate to the project.
Borehole Drilling
Drilling works coordinated around the recommended point, geology, access and agreed commercial basis.
Borehole Development
Initial development and preparation for subsequent pump testing or equipping as applicable.
Water-System Planning
Early consideration of pump, storage and distribution requirements so the drilled source connects to the real demand.
Project Documentation
Recording key project information and agreed handover requirements for the next installation stage.
Delivery process
How we move from enquiry to handover
A visible process reduces uncertainty and gives both the client and project team clear decision points.
Water demand and site review
A defined checkpoint in the agreed delivery pathway.
Survey/siting coordination
A defined checkpoint in the agreed delivery pathway.
Access and drilling plan
A defined checkpoint in the agreed delivery pathway.
Drilling mobilisation
A defined checkpoint in the agreed delivery pathway.
Drilling and development
A defined checkpoint in the agreed delivery pathway.
Yield/next-stage assessment
A defined checkpoint in the agreed delivery pathway.
Equipping or water-system planning
A defined checkpoint in the agreed delivery pathway.
Why DC Designs & Construction
One team connecting design, construction, water and energy
Where projects cross multiple disciplines, our integrated capability helps reduce coordination gaps and gives clients one accountable project conversation.
Local project context
Based in Harare and serving projects across Zimbabwe subject to scope, access and mobilisation requirements.
Visible scope control
Deliverables, assumptions and project interfaces are defined before execution wherever practical.
Quality checkpoints
Inspection and review points are integrated into the delivery process rather than left to final handover.
Integrated specialist services
Architectural design, construction, project management, borehole and solar solutions can be coordinated under one company.
Frequently asked questions
Questions clients ask before appointing us
No responsible contractor can guarantee underground water before drilling. Surveying reduces uncertainty, but geology remains a project risk that should be understood before mobilisation.
Depth depends on local geology and the conditions encountered during drilling. The commercial approach and treatment of depth should be clear in the quotation.
Yes. Water surveying can be coordinated as part of the borehole-siting process.
Yes. Borehole equipping, storage and distribution can be scoped as a follow-on or integrated water-system package.
