Post new topic

lynnette Nisbet

Hi, I currently have a property in Golyam Dervent but was thinking of purchasing a second property in Bulgaria but it does not have mains water, Does anyone have a estimate of what is cost to borehole drill for fresh water source. Thanks in advance for any advice given.

My father in law does that. It could go from 2000 to 10k depending on your situation

I reckon a couple of thousand euros (and up) for a new borehole. But it depends on how deep you want to go, and whether you want just the drilling, or a fully-finished, working one complete with pump/tank/pipework/cover, etc. My neighbour near Kazanlak does this, and he drills a lot of holes all over Bulgaria.


It's fairly unregulated here, and that, combined with hotter/drier weather, means the water level is falling. Modern technology can make much deeper wells than most traditional ones, so most of my village neighbours have upgraded theirs.


However, I don't think there are many that rely only on well water, it's usually a back-up (and a cheaper way of watering the garden). As most village house now have potential access to mains water, maybe it's worth considering spending your money on a mains connection first?

I'm new to this forum, but I wanted to chime in on the topic of borehole drilling. I think it's a great idea to look into drilling a fresh water source for your property in Bulgaria. While I'm not familiar with the costs specific to that area, I do know that the cost of drilling can vary based on several factors such as the depth of the well and the type of drilling rig used. Speaking of drilling rigs, have you considered using an api 8c drilling rig inspection services? These rigs are designed to provide safe and efficient drilling operations, which can help ensure that your well is drilled properly.

Looking for a well digger to assess and quote for a new well in the Targovishte area.

Hi there...don't suppose you have any contact details for your neighbour who digs boreholes? We're near Dimitrovgrad and are interested in going down this road
