Is your borehole underperforming? Experiencing reduced water flow, silted screens, or discolored water? It may be time for deepening and flushing services in Zimbabwe, and Ragnarock Drilling is here to help.

What is Borehole Deepening?

Borehole deepening involves re-drilling an existing borehole to a greater depth. This technique:

• Expands the water storage zone
• Connects to deeper, more productive aquifers
• Boosts water yield significantly

Our expert guidance—often in collaboration with a qualified water diviner—ensures deepening targets zones with the highest potential.

What is Borehole Flushing?

Flushing entails circulating water or compressed air through the borehole to:

• Remove sediment, debris, and silt
• Restore purity and flow
• Extend borehole lifespan by preventing clogging

In Zimbabwe, borehole flushing is essential—especially when dealing with red soils or sandy formations where filters and screens are prone to clogging.

Benefits of Deepening & Flushing

1. Increased Water Yield Deepening taps into deeper layers, and flushing clears blockages—together, they maximize water production.
2. Improved Water Quality Flushing removes fine sediments and mineral deposits, leading to cleaner, clearer water.
3. Extended Borehole Longevity Regular maintenance reduces pump wear and prevents complete blockage.
4. Cost‑Effective Solution Revitalizing a borehole through deepening and flushing is often more affordable than drilling a new one.

Ragnarock Drilling’s Process

Here’s how we deliver reliable deepening and flushing services:

1. Assessment and Site Analysis We inspect current borehole performance, sediment levels, and geology using hydrogeological methods and water diviners where necessary.
2. Deepening The borehole is carefully extended into deeper aquifers using precision drilling rigs and techniques suited to the local ground conditions.
3. Flushing and Cleaning We use high-pressure water or compressed air to dislodge and evacuate sediments until the discharge runs clear.
4. Completion Testing We conduct capacity testing to measure improved yield and assess water clarity.
5. Pump Reinstallation Our team reinstalls or upgrades your pump system, optimizing it for the updated borehole specifications.

Are you planning to invest in a borehole for your home, farm, or business? Understanding the borehole drilling process in Zimbabwe can help you make informed decisions. At Ragnarock Drilling (Pvt) Ltd, we simplify the process and provide professional, efficient, and affordable borehole drilling services across the country.

In this post, we walk you through the step-by-step stages of drilling a borehole, so you know exactly what to expect when you work with us.

1. Site Survey and Hydrogeological Study

Before any drilling begins, our experts conduct a site survey to determine the best location for your borehole. This may include:

• Hydrogeological surveys to locate underground water sources
• Evaluating terrain and access routes
• Assessing environmental and legal considerations

This step is crucial for ensuring that drilling is successful and cost-effective.

2. Borehole Drilling

Once the site is approved, our team begins the actual drilling process using suitable techniques based on the ground formation:

• Mud rotary drilling
• Auger drilling
• Odex drilling
• Reverse circulation (RC) drilling (for deeper or more complex projects)

Our modern drilling rigs can handle any terrain across Zimbabwe with minimal disruption to the environment.

3. Borehole Casing and Installation

After reaching the required depth, we insert a borehole casing to stabilize the borehole walls and prevent collapse. This stage includes:

• Installing PVC or steel casing
• Gravel packing to filter sediments
• Sealing with bentonite or cement grout

This protects your water source and improves borehole longevity.

4. Borehole Development and Flushing

Next, we develop the borehole by cleaning out loose sediments and improving water inflow. This is done through:

• Air-lifting
• Jetting and surging
• Flushing using clean water

This step ensures your borehole delivers clean, sediment-free water.

5. Pump Installation and Testing

We install a submersible or bush pump, depending on your water needs and budget. This is followed by:

• Capacity (yield) testing to measure water flow rate
• Pump testing and calibration

We ensure your pump system is efficient, durable, and perfectly matched to your borehole specifications.

6. Final Inspection and Handover

Finally, we perform a full system inspection and provide you with:

• A completion report
• Usage and maintenance guidelines
• Expert advice on borehole management

With Ragnarock Drilling, you don’t just get a borehole—you get a complete water solution backed by a professional team.
