4.5-inch borewells: overview
We drill and construct 4.5-inch diameter borewells to depths of up to 1,000 feet for building sites, homes, apartments, institutions and companies, in all kinds of soil, for urban and rural customers across India.
A 4.5" borewell is the economical choice for domestic water: it is quicker to drill, uses less casing and is simple to install and maintain, while a high-capacity hydraulic rig keeps the bore straight and accurate.

Materials
- PVC casing pipes
- GI pipes
Power rig and rotary rig
Most medium and deep borewells are drilled with rotary rigs. A rotary rig is built from four systems: the engine, the hoisting (lifting) system, the rotating system and the mud/circulation system. It drills through hard rock to the target depth.
Low rig
A smaller rig for shallow borewells and sites where a large truck-mounted rig cannot reach.
Hand borewell
For shallow wells: a manually operated hand pump needs no electricity, costs little and is easy to maintain and repair.
Drilling with a rotary rig needs water on site; ask how much your job will need (the original page mentions about 2,000 litres).
COST GUIDE
Borewell drilling rates
Typical depths and per-foot ranges published on this site. Your rate depends on depth, rock, diameter and rig access.
| Borewell type | Typical depth | Drilling method | Indicative cost per foot |
|---|---|---|---|
| Residential | 150–600 ft | DTH / Rotary | ₹80–₹180 |
| Agricultural | 300–1,200 ft | DTH | ₹100–₹250 |
| Industrial | 600–1,500 ft | Heavy DTH | ₹150–₹280 |
Indicative ranges as published on this website. Your rate depends on depth, rock and soil, diameter, rig access and transport, so ask for a written quote for your site.
HOW IT WORKS
Four steps from call to water
- Call or WhatsAppTell us the location, the type of site and what you need. Send a photo if you like.
- Site visit & surveyWe check rig access and, if you want one, survey the ground to mark the drilling point.
- Drilling, casing & yield testDrilling to the agreed depth, casing fitted, flushing, and the yield measured in LPM.
- Pump & handoverThe right pump installed, the borewell commissioned and the work documented.
What borewell sizes do you drill?
What is the borewell drilling cost per foot in India?
Published ranges on this site run from about ₹80 to ₹250 per foot for most homes and farms (up to ₹280 for heavy industrial drilling). The rate for a site in India depends on depth, soil and rock hardness, borewell diameter and rig type (DTH or rotary). Ask for a written quote that lists drilling, casing pipe, rig transport and any pump work separately. You can use the cost worksheet to compare quotes.
How deep should a borewell be in India?
Homes and apartments usually need 150–600 ft, and farms 600–1,200 ft or more. The final depth in India depends on the water table and the local geology at your plot, so agree the target depth and the per-foot rate for each depth stage before drilling starts.
Which is better: DTH or rotary drilling?
DTH (down-the-hole) drilling is best for hard rock and rocky ground. Rotary drilling suits soft or alluvial soil. We recommend the method after looking at your site and, where available, survey results.
What is charged apart from drilling?
Casing pipe (usually PVC, sometimes MS) is charged separately because it is fitted during drilling. Rig transport, flushing, yield testing and any pump installation should also appear as separate lines on your quote.
Do you install borewell pumps?
Yes. We install V3, V4, V6 and V8 submersible pumps, jet pumps and compressor systems, and help choose the HP and stages from the bore depth, static and dynamic water levels and expected yield.
What happens if the borewell does not give enough water?
Groundwater and yield cannot be guaranteed by any contractor. Before drilling, agree how deep to go, when to stop, and how the work will be charged if the yield is low, so there are no surprises.
