What to know locally in Polokwane
Drillers based in Polokwane cover a big area, so booking a rig can take time when many people want water at once. Ask what the drilling quote includes: casing, the yield test and a dry hole policy. Rewinders and pump repairers in town handle booster, pool and borehole pumps. Theft of cable from boreholes in rural areas is common, so lockable caps and covers help.
Water and ground in Polokwane
Polokwane is a dry city with a growing population, and water shortages have pushed many households to find their own supply. Suburbs like Bendor and Flora Park have plenty of garden boreholes and tanks, while villages around Moletjie, Ga-Mothapo and Mankweng often depend on community boreholes or private ones. The city's water comes partly from distant dams and partly from groundwater, and both come under strain in a dry year. Farms on the plateau grow potatoes, vegetables and game, irrigating from boreholes where yields allow. Ground is mostly granite and gneiss, often hard to drill and uneven in yield. Pump shops, drillers and rewinders sit in the industrial areas near the N1, and many serve villages across the region.
The requests we see from Polokwane usually come from:
- Homeowners: a garden borehole pump that hums and trips after a summer storm
- Municipalities, schools and clinics: village borehole pumps repaired after cable theft or lightning damage
- Smallholdings and plots: a plot pump giving less water each month as sand wears the impellers
