Vertical Drilling Services

Reliable, Deep, and Durable Vertical Boreholes Across South Africa

Our vertical drilling services are tailored for clients needing precision holes for solar supports, boreholes, geotechnical investigations, or foundational structures.

We drill vertical shafts up to large diameters and depths, even in remote or rocky areas. Our fleet is fully equipped for fast mobilisation to any site.

​

Common applications:

  • Foundation holes for solar farm support beams

  • Borehole drilling for water access

  • Exploratory and geotechnical drilling

  • Rock and hard-soil environments

​

We bring experience, accuracy, and professionalism to every project — no matter the scale.

Uses for Vertical Drilling

  • Solar Farm Pole Foundations
    Drilling precise vertical holes to install steel support beams for solar panels — essential for alignment and structural integrity.

  • Borehole Water Extraction
    Accessing underground water sources for domestic, agricultural, or industrial use by drilling deep vertical boreholes.

  • Geotechnical Investigations
    Collecting soil and rock samples to assess ground conditions before construction, mining, or infrastructure projects.

  • Mining Exploration
    Drilling deep into the earth to collect mineral samples and determine the presence, depth, and quality of ore deposits.

  • Blasting Holes in Mining
    Creating vertical holes to load explosives for controlled blasting in open-pit or underground mining operations.

  • Structural Foundations for Buildings or Towers
    Installing piles, anchors, or rebar cages into vertical shafts to support structures such as telecom towers, substations, or buildings.

  • Environmental Monitoring Wells
    Drilling boreholes for the installation of monitoring instruments to detect groundwater contamination or measure subsurface changes.

  • Vertical Drainage Holes in Slopes or Dams
    Relieving hydrostatic pressure by drilling drainage shafts into embankments, tailings dams, or retaining structures.
