Groundwater Works - We Provide Borehole Services, Anywhere in Kenya
Groundwater Works Kenya is a fully Kenyan-owned borehole drilling and groundwater services firm, established in 2016 and run by a team of highly qualified, licensed hydrogeologists and water engineers. We specialize in end-to-end borehole drilling services for residential use, commercial water supply, agricultural and farm projects, institutions, and NGOs, serving clients across all 47 counties in Kenya and beyond.

Our Background in Borehole Services Provision
Groundwater Works Kenya is run by a team of licensed hydrogeologists and water engineers with over ten years of combined experience in borehole siting and groundwater exploration. Our team's background includes work with national government bodies on hydrogeological mapping and groundwater resource assessment, giving us a depth of technical and regulatory expertise rarely found in the industry.
Since our founding, we have completed more than 100 successful borehole projects across the country, serving farms, institutions, commercial operators, and NGOs alike. This experience shapes how we work.
​
Every site assessment draws on:
-
Geospatial analysis: a dedicated team of geospatial data scientists conducts desktop analysis using satellite data and modern AI-assisted tools to identify the zones with the highest groundwater potential on a client's land, before any site visit takes place.
-
Field verification by licensed hydrogeologists: following the desktop analysis, our team of hydrogeologists visits the site in person to conduct ground-truthing, an on-site hydrogeological survey that confirms the highest-potential drill point identified remotely.
-
Field survey discipline: GPS-referenced boundary surveys and detailed site documentation, applied consistently across every project nationwide.
Â
The result is a siting process that combines desktop geospatial screening with hands-on hydrogeological verification, a level of rigor that goes beyond a typical drilling contractor's quote.
Our Mission
To make groundwater development safe, evidence-based, and accessible across east Africa, by combining licensed hydrogeological expertise with dependable engineering at every stage of the borehole lifecycle.
Our Vision
To be East Africa's most trusted name in groundwater development, where technical excellence meets data-driven siting, and every borehole is built on evidence, not guesswork.
