Our rating system
Ratings and review counts are aggregated from public customer reviews (Google Reviews, HelloPeter, Trustpilot) and shown as found — every badge links to the source so you can read the reviews yourself. We also cross-check where suppliers are talked about on forums, Facebook, news and social media ("also seen on"). We don't accept payment for placement and a listing is not an endorsement. Ratings change over time; last checked 2026-07-05. Always get more than one quote, and confirm any drilling or water-use rules for your area.

How to choose a water-security supplier
- Check the review trail, not just the stars. Read the most recent reviews and watch how the company responds to complaints — after-sales is where these projects go wrong.
- For boreholes: insist on a written, itemised quote (drilling, casing, pump, plumbing), a yield test, and clarity on per-metre pricing — ask what happens if the hole comes up dry. Confirm whether your area needs municipal or water-use authorisation.
- For tanks: ask about the tank warranty (good polyethylene tanks carry 8–10 years), the stand or base spec, and whether overflow and first-flush are included. Size your storage first.
- For drinking water: any borehole or rainwater supply must be tested and treated before you drink it — ask who does the test and what treatment they recommend.
- Red flags: large upfront deposits, no physical address, uncapped per-metre drilling charges, and "guaranteed water" promises — no honest driller guarantees water.

Is borehole or rainwater safe to drink?
Not until tested and treated. Lab-test borehole water before drinking; always filter and treat rainwater — untreated, use it for irrigation, cleaning and flushing.
Not sure how much storage you need?
