Submersible Water Bore Myaree

Leave a comment

What is under here? A modern submersible water bore that is saving the householder money. Unlike the old well type water bores with the large tin lids, this water bore is not conspicuous and runs silently.

This submersible water bore was drilled recently by our drilling team at the home of a customer in Myaree, a southern Perth suburb. The bore lid was finished flush with a new aggregate driveway. We generally drill in lawns or gardens but here there was no other possible place to drill.

Testimonial from customer for Mirrabooka Water Bore.

Leave a comment

Thanks very much for the good review from Jim for Virgin Bores.

Good review Virgin Bores
A customer says thank you for good service

We drilled Jim a water bore for him in Mirrabooka.

The water bore drillers did a 36 metre bore on a sloping block in Mirrabooka. The specialist electricians then connected the bore.

It is great to have a happy customer with his water bore in Mirrabooka.

Old Submersible Bore Cable

Leave a comment

All submersible bores have electrical cable that goes down beneath the water table delivering mains power to the submersible pump (call us on 9246 0111)

It is important that the bore cable is sound and won’t allow water to get inside. Water ingress can lead to electrical failure of the motor or at best persistent tripping of the control equipment, circuit breaker or cause fuses to blow. Pictured is just part of this summer’s suspect or faulty electrical cable that has been replaced this year.

If you have a similar problem with your submersible bore our specialist water bore electricians have the experience, knowledge and equipment to diagnose the fault. Call us Perth metro wide 9246 0111 or visit our main website here

Our experienced bore electrician Dave attended Russell’s Kewdale property, checked his system and supplied and fitted a new reticulation controller.

We also attended Philip’s Carine property where we replaced his .75 kw 2 wire submersible motor / pump and tested that everything was OK.

“Thank you for your teams excellent work just prior to Christmas. Having the bore operational again has been fantastic. Once again thank you and I am happy to recommend your services to anyone. Regards Phillip.”

Deep Bore in Wembley Downs

Leave a comment

Virgin Bores has just drilled a deep new submersible water bore in Wembley Downs 9246 0111.

By Perth metropolitan area standards it was very deep at 62 metres. The house is on top of the hill near the water tower. We know in advance how far we have to drill as we look at the depth to water in the Perth Groundwater Atlas on the Department of Water website HERE

Pictured here is a trailer mounted air compressor. We use this via the roll of pipe seen on the back of the truck to pump compressed air down the newly drilled bore. This is called “air developing” and flushes the introduced drilling muds out of the borehole and helps develop water flow from the superficial aquifer before we install the submersible pump.

Once we drill a water bore we can design a new retic system if needed and will look after our clients ongoing needs to service their bore and retic in the Wembley, Wembley Downs, City Beach and Doubleview areas.

Call Virgin Bores 7 days a week on 9246 0111 if you would like an online quote on a new water bore anywhere in Perth check us out HERE

New Submersible Bore Applecross

Our installation arm, Virgin Bores, has just successfully completed the installation of a new water bore in Applecross. The proximity to the river was a concern because of salinity levels so special design considerations were used. These included a high yield stainless steel screen. These screens, designed to allow higher volumes of water in than normal slotted PVC casing are able to be put in at a shallower depth. The less dense fresh water is above the underlying more dense water of higher salinity. Virgin Bores local knowledge helped arrive at a great outcome.

New Submersible Bore Completed in Wembley

Image Leave a comment

 

We told you recently about a new submersible bore we were drilling in Wembley near Lake Monger.

It was drilled successfully resulting in beautiful and clear water.  Pictured is the new submersible bore before it is covered. The submersible bore green lid is only 400 mm by 300 mm. This was drilled to 25 metres, a common depth for a Perth Bore. It was drilled by our installation arm, Virgin Bores, to replace an old well that had failed. If you would like a quote for a new submersible water bore 9246 0111.

It is covered over with soil and lawn so it is completely invisible. However it is important that the home owner keeps a record of where the bore is for future access.

Water Bore Quote Leederville

Leave a comment

Virgin Bores was quoting on a new submersible water bore in West Leederville when we spotted this fantastic recycling with an old mattress frame / springs used to make a vertical garden.

Great recycling with a vertical garden made mattress springs
Vertical garden made out of mattress inner springs

 

It makes a perfect frame for the plants to climb on. These plants will flourish with a new submersible water bore and the nutrient rich Perth bore water. The Perth coastal plain is generally ideal for bore water. Unlike the old fashioned wells with the tin lids a modern submersible bore is invisible and silent. It lasts and will save you money. Also with a water bore you can water your garden three days a week instead of two on mains water. Obviously you only water when needed.
