How does a water borehole benefit your home?

If you own land, even if it’s a relatively small garden, and if you have water beneath your ground’s surface, it’s your right to access it.

Often the home and landowners we work with believe they must rely on a mains water supplies - or think there’ll be too many hurdles in the way of them getting their own water supply.  

In fact, any water drilling project on land that you own is likely to get a green light – and even if access to your site is restricted, there’s every chance we can help you.

At Igne we have over 70 years’ experience drilling boreholes for water for domestic and commercial clients alike.

The benefits of installing a water borehole for your home include... 

Long-term savings

Water boreholes can supply up to 20,000 liters of water a day for you – at no cost.  Comparatively, an average domestic property uses only 350 liters of water a day.

Once the installation work has been done, there is no additional charge for this water.  It becomes your own, private supply. 

Water quality

Up to 70% of water from mains supplies comes from recycled wastewater.  In order to make this water safe to drink it’s heavily treated with chemicals, such as chlorine and fluoride.

With a water well, a simple filtration system is often all that’s needed to ensure your water is clean to drink.

Any chemicals that may be needed will be dependent on the water found - and you’ll know exactly what has been added to your water and why. 

Your private supply can therefore provide safer, purer water for you, your family, household pets or even livestock.

Beat the ban

Fill a swimming pool, let your children play with the hose, water your garden as much as you like! Droughts and hosepipe bans become a thing of the past when you have your own, private supply.
