Well rehabilitation.

Wells are a useful resource during periods when the rain is not as abundant or when there is a lot of drought. They provide a continuous stream of water that is safe for you to drink. However, they are not completely immune to damage. For example, bacteria and other harmful substances can build up here and cause you to have water that is not clear. This can be particularly harmful to crops as they do not have the nutrients that they need to grow and thrive.  It will affect crop health quite a lot, and it could cause crops to be ruined because they do not have the nutrients that they need to thrive and grow.

Water treatment.

Our water treatment services ensure that your plants and crops have access to pure water which will help them perform better. It will also mean that your crops will be healthier and you will be able to earn a living selling them. Our water treatment systems are designed to clean the water, removing any heavy metals, minerals or other harmful bacteria from the water. We use specialist water softeners to treat water that is hard.

Water pump installation & maintenance.

Installing a water pump on your property can help you have access to water when there is drought.It is important that you choose the right pump to meet your water needs. It should be able to meet all your water demands while operating at its optimal efficiency. This means that you are getting the best value for money possible, without spending a lot of money on unnecessary equipment. A good water pump will also allow you to deliver water efficiently to your customers during large projects you are working on.

Water tank installation & maintenance.

Water tanks can help you if you are experiencing a period of drought, because they ensure that you have water stored on-site. It means that you are not completely dependent on rain to make sure that your crops are healthy and thriving.
