The Problem

The wrong pump costs you every day

A wrong-sized or badly installed pump shows up as weak supply, constant tripping, burnt-out motors and electricity wasted on a system working against itself.

And a cheap install rarely stays cheap — repeat callouts, replacement parts and early pump failure cost more over time than doing it properly once.

The Big Joe Solution

The right pump, properly installed

We match the pump to your borehole and your usage after a professional assessment, then deliver a reliable installation with proper control panels and cabling — fully tested before handover.

From there, maintenance and repairs keep it running as part of a long-term water solution. Performance depends on your borehole and site conditions — which is exactly why we assess before we install.

FAQs

Borehole Pump Questions

What pump do I need for my borehole?

It depends on your borehole's depth and performance, how much water you use, and where the water must go — straight to the house, into storage tanks or across a large property. We size the pump after a professional assessment rather than guessing, because a pump that's too big or too small causes problems either way.

Can you replace a faulty borehole pump?

Yes. We remove the failed pump, check what caused the failure and quote you on a correctly sized replacement — not just a like-for-like swap of a pump that may have been wrong from the start. Call 074 409 1212 or email admin@bigjoeboreholes.co.za if your water supply has stopped.

Do you service existing pump systems?

Yes — including systems installed by other companies. We service, fault-find and repair borehole pumps, booster pumps and control panels, and we'll tell you honestly when a repair makes more sense than a replacement.

Why does my pump keep tripping?

Common causes include electrical faults, dry running, a worn pump or control panel issues. We test the system to find the actual cause before parts are replaced — so you don't pay for components that were never the problem.

Can you connect my pump to storage tanks?

Yes — we install borehole-to-tank and tank-to-house setups so your supply keeps running. See our water storage & backup systems service.
