Frequently Asked Questions?
For a water bore drilling business like Central West Water Bores, customers usually have concerns regarding costs, success rates, and local regulations.
How do you find the best location to drill for water?
We use a combination of local geological data and traditional methods like water dowsing (divining) to identify the highest probability of hitting a high-yield aquifer. Our 40+ years of experience in the Central West region allows us to understand the specific underground rock formations in your area.
What happens if you drill and don’t find enough water?
While we have a very high success rate due to our precision drilling equipment and site assessments, groundwater can never be 100% guaranteed. However, we use state-of-the-art rotary hammer rigs to ensure we reach the necessary depths to provide the best chance for a reliable, long-term supply.
Do I need a government permit to drill a water bore?
Yes, in most parts of NSW, you are required to obtain a drilling license or “Work Summary” from WaterNSW before we begin. We can assist you with the application process to ensure your bore is fully compliant with local agricultural or domestic regulations.
Can you provide water for livestock and irrigation?
Absolutely. We specialize in “Sourcing Water for Livestock” and large-scale irrigation bores. We don’t just drill the hole; we can also help with pump installation to ensure the water is delivered reliably to your troughs or crops.
What areas do you provide drilling services to?
We are based in the Central West and proudly serve a wide region including Dubbo, Mudgee, Orange, Bathurst, Cowra, Goulburn, Lithgow, and Canberra. No location is too far for our team if you need a professional and secure water solution.
