The way he answers the questions he is very EVASIVE
If this guy have done drilling in different areas he should be real on sharing cost
My borehole is 74 metres deep, yields 4.5 cubic metres (4,500 lts) per hour. I spent 480k to install a solar pump from Davis and Shirtliff. Two years down the line, no electricity bills.
Awesome.. thanks for the information
Hey, kindly could I get more details from you please
So the total was 450k ?
@@simonwainaina7360 No. The cost of drilling was Kshs. 7,000 per meter plus the geo survey fee of Kshs. 50,000. The total was slightly over Kshs. 1M
And where is your borehole located?
Do you regret anything?
How is the solar maintenance expenses and does it serve you right?
He has very useful information. I like the fact that he will quote the price depending on the variables and not just one standard figure
My friend had a borehole drilled for $3500 (in Guinea Conakry) which at the time was approximately ksh 400000. She paid in installments for 3months. This is one business that would do very well in Kenya but the only thing we hear is "it depends" and then prices are over exaggerated.
So about 1 - 1.5m Project Budget, for 100 - 150m deep. Not bad. Its a lot of work, materials and workers.
For those asking. When you drill into the ground, there is a lot of variables. You do not know how deep to drill, What type of soil (Loose, Clay, Gravel and worse Rock). Some want Plastic casing. Cheap but not suitable for all cases. You also don't know how big a pump you require and the capacity. Depends on how much water you find. See why its so difficult to give an accurate figure? No two boreholes are the the same. that is why he keeps saying depends on Location. To know a good estimate, ask any nearby neighbour who had one dug. then make an estimate. From his information, About 1 - 1.5m Project Budget, for 100 - 150m deep. Not bad. Its a lot of work, materials and workers. I hope this helps.
Having dealt with boreholes, I agree. Very many factors to consider.
Theres too much *IT DEPENDS* In this conversation that if i call him he will keep telling me it depends 😊
Noted
Because there are many variables eg depth of water, water yield that will then determine pump size and price etc. A 100m deep borehole yielding 3m3 will cost very different from a 300m meter borehole yielding 5m3.
@mangrove9151 I agree, but he needs to give examples out of what he has done in the past and add on a statement like... however charges might change coz of inflation... or something
@@RitzyBeauty936 I totally agree 💯

This is the way to go.All able Kenyans should embrace borehole drilling and solar energy.

A colored BS😂. My borehole in msa costed me less than 100k inclusive.

True this guy ana dodge question za costing . some like wrua and warma are standard.Im disappointed by you for we have known you for being truthful but here uliuza wateja.Its a shame.The cost per metre is generally btwn 6500 to 8000.He should have quoted for metal and the plastics and for all he's talking about.
Tr@@ring-tone278but why not take one case and quote from it but emphasize it differs from area to area, rather than being vagu
@@muchemimatu7573I really hate that word of depend 😢
Tech guys often leave lay people behind. Best thing is to first educate yourself on your quest before engaging them. A checklist is better in this case
I hear more words than information necessary. What is wrong with giving an amount figure for estimates?
😂😂😂 exactly 💯
He's leaving room for conmanship! True Kenyan spirit ❤🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪💯
@@mentuhotepii2641 i thought so too
Two adjacent boreholes will have different cost n the rock formation
It's called a hydrogeological survey
Awesome Awesome content Muthii. Thanks for good questions. wao!!! how nice information Following you. Will for sure have mine in my home. Never worry hakuna maji tena. Love it❤❤❤❤
What day is today 🤔 It depends on eeh you know 😂😂 bro taja price wacha kupiga piga conner conner 😅😅😂
Is it so hard to give a credible information without exaggerating

Miano, u r a real resource. Thank u
Thanks 😊
@@mianomuthii wow Keep the good work bro
GOOD MESSAGE MAINA KEEP ON ESTABLISHING HOMES WATERS.
I've drilled 3 boreholes. Half of these drilling companies are crooks. Shop around before you start. A hydrological survey can be done by someone else other than the driller. Get permits before you drill. Also don't go cheap on the pump and the controller. Buy from a reputable company.
Do you have any companies you can recommend?
Very true
Thanks for this information, I appreciate everything you do ,it was great piece of knowledge freely shared .pongezi .
I appreciate your efforts on this topic. Please get another company that is willing to break down cost more details.

Thanks for the info,can you make another video outlining the benefits and disadvantages of using borehole waters and as compared to catching rain water ?
I have seen in some areas children with brown teeth attributed to borehole waters and cant guess how deep the problem is going to turn out years to come.
In California,they blamed the wildfires to borehole overuse over long period depleting the watertable causing overheating that cause fires to erupt anywhere.
Is a study carried out before we repeat same things with worse consequences?
Just my opinion.
Thanks 😊

Huyu ni mwizi
This dude is very conservative… he has a very good opportunity to market himself but he is not truthful with the prices … most people like to work with Numbers … how much does he charge per meter, the survey and other expenses sio kushinda akisema inadepend….
He was busy gatekeeping instead of sharing information and marketing his services. He should have used the project he's currently undertaking as a case study to give us precise numbers, then now add his disclaimer "it depends" for other places like Turkana, Kisumu, Mombasa, Makueni etc.
Hapa hakuna kitu huyu.
Mara inalinganaa ama inadepend.
Wakenya wanataka kujua your fixed cost.
Kila saa inadepend.
Thank you for the information , I'll be looking for you mnene.
When i saw this i clicked on it quickly thinking i will get everything as am about to drill borehole....
The process is well detailed so only costs were Left out..will make another video on the costs Also
very resourceful info there
Afraid of guys who answer evasively like this

Miano very interesting topic but this guy ametupea tuu what happens when drilling thats all infor. iko sawa but apa sijajipanga kujua mfuko nini inatoka
I love your videos always
Most borehole drillers exagerate depths and are conmen and women
Very true nliona u measure the number of casings you use as a way to know depth
If much cost goes to logistics we better get local drillers
Very true
The shortest depth should be how many metres , I believe there are some areas where water is not far
Miano can you go to Davis and shirtlif and know the prices
Okay will do that
This man has hidden agendas
This had the potential to be a really good video 🤦♂️
Huyo ni abunuasi kweli
Thanks bro for the information
Davis & shirtliff.

Sorry but, he is not the right person to share information. Vague answers don't help anyone
Noted
I wish angekuwa clear on the price
Hata break down ya the one they are drilling
The guy is ignorant of information delivery, and mostly of his service being regulatory by gov. agencies, the cost should be fixed and constant. He should have specific details on his fingertips on specific regions, not just guessing.
This guy should learn to answer questions.... He is evasive....
Thank you, I agree, at least provide examples of how much his Customers have paid. Unless alianza kazi juzi

He behaves like a politician....
I don't want to dig a borehole I want to buy that drilling machine
That guy had a golden opportunity to market himself but I would never trust him. What's wrong with giving pricing for something you do every day?
i will do another video on the costs involved

can one pay in instalments? or it "depends"!
very good information
Huyu usilete kwa video tena....Hii nayo hata sijawatch yote. Nice video title lakini content wapi....
Other than the cost part I bet he explained the process in great way...
It's hard to watch the full video as this guy in helmet is not giving any useful information and the little he has given is totally wrong. .such as the 150k
Drilling estimate within Rwaka area ni how much? I wish he could get actual estimates per area.
Good information
It depends inalingana sasa huyu anatusaidia aje seriously si aweke price
He should just tell us the cost of the licenses... Mambo ya logistics tutaongea later
Very true.. I will look into it and share
Hydrological servy ksh150,000 is way to expensive
Yes...
True on this one, most charges from 30k but excluding licensing which you normally need 3 different ones
NYS does those surveys.
Kindly revisit please a detailed one
working on it
Naweza mpata wapi huyo wa muranga
Why is it hard to get a direct answer it sound so complicated
Give your PIN,title deed then prepare good meds for high blood pressure,sugar salt,uji and any kind of disease.I was conned by Kisima drillers in 2021
Wueh.. sorry madam for that
I can imagine the pain
Wooi. Pole. My adrenaline is going up even before starting the process. I am thinking of getting borehole but nashtukashtuka
Pole what happened
I was conned recently by Rael hydro systems never try them
Guys, why should I need a permit to drill a borehole in my home and why to register?
You are forgetting uko kwenye serikali ya Zakayo. Lazima kulipa ushuru. Every year ni Ksh 7k
😅Sasa huyu, what is so difficult with giving us average costs. This is so tiring to listen to. Kila kitu ni it depends
Thank you Miano
Si angeongea tu Kiswahili or kikuyu
If “it depends” would ever be an adequate answer to any question, no conversations or questions could ever be made because everything “depends”. Such a important topic and you bring a guest who doesn’t want to answer questions. What a waste of a good opportunity. Common Miano, you can do better.
Noted , but at least someone got to know the steps by step process
Dude literally said alot of nothing, he's soo minimalistic with relevant information 😂😂... Ofcz leaving a room for conmanship Bure kabisa
After digging a borehole of 450 metres and no signs of water and client gives up, what about that. Second after digging a borehole and water testing results not suitable for domestic use will client get back half of the. money ?
Wueh... Hard questions
Call them and ask that but very valid questions here
Good question
What kind of water is not suitable for human use
@@loishaldemann6166 all water is required to pass through lab tests

This guy can't sell his services, bogus.
"It depends" is not an answer. Hes really evading giving straight answers nkt!
working on something else to share better costs estimates
@@mianomuthii yes coz this is nonsense. No information here
They should have a base pay or a clear way for a customer to determine how deep they dug. Permits are from government office and should be similar cost.
Miano next time don't bring conmen in yr show unless you're birds of a feather. Something like WARMA and NEMA are national and have specific uniform price but to him every answer starts with "it depends"...
and I think "it depends" on how many of us he wanna steal from.
Noted... Hopefully in the video you got information on the process... Will be doing an update on the costs
I think you should should have pinned this guy to give some figures,hata chargese ya wrua hasemi.this is the worst you have ever done.

That was a well

@@lucywanjiru1427 depends on the amount of water you need and the location.. some places huwezi pata maji shallow heights like 100 feet or less so a borehole is okay..n borehole has the promise of more water albeit expensive and not guaranteed

Whats the need of doing a survey and i pay for all that amount of money then you tell me you can't guarantee that i will get water. Or you will refund the money in case i don't get enough water? I thought the survey is meant to determine if you should proceed with the process !!
Awesome question... especially on the fact that the survey should give data on availabilty of water on the ground..
Vague....somewhat!
