8 borehole drillers in Valencia

How this list works Free listings, ordered by google rating, weighted by how many reviews it rests on

Order. Firms are sorted by Google rating, weighted by how many reviews it rests on, so a 4.8 from 200 reviews ranks above a 5.0 from 3. Firms with no reviews come last.

Where the details come from. Names, ratings, review counts and phone numbers come from each firm’s Google Business Profile. Labels such as “English website”, the brands and the manufacturer listings come from the firm’s own website or the manufacturer’s official installer list. We don’t write reviews.

Free and paid. Every listing is free. Only the Featured box is paid, it is always labelled, and the featured firm keeps its normal place in the list too.

Guide

Choosing a borehole driller in Valencia

The list covers Oliva, Llíria, Bétera and L' Eliana, among other towns. Near Valencia itself, are Ferrer Dewatering, Perforaciones and REPSON, SL- Perforaciones y pozos de agua en Valencia. If you’re inland, ask each firm whether your village is inside their normal working area before you book a visit.

None of these firms has 20 Google reviews yet, so lean on references from past customers. The average rating across the list is 4.4 (firms with at least five reviews). A handful of five-star reviews is a start, but ask for a job you can go and see.

Drillers should be able to tell you the likely depth and water quality in your area from wells they’ve already drilled nearby. Get the price per metre, what happens if they hit dry rock, and whether the pump, casing and water test are included.

Questions to ask before you sign

  • What depth do you expect in my area, and why?
  • What is the price per metre?
  • What happens if you don’t find water at that depth?
  • Are the casing, pump, controller and water test included?
  • Will you handle the authorisation paperwork?

Are there English-speaking borehole drillers in Valencia?

We haven’t found a firm in this list with an English website. Many still deal with foreign customers, so it’s worth asking, or bring a Spanish speaker to the first visit.

Do I need permission to drill a borehole?

Yes. In Spain new wells need authorisation from the water authority for the area, usually the river basin authority (confederación hidrográfica). A driller who works locally will know the process; ask whether the paperwork is in their quote.

How much does a borehole cost?

Between about €1,800 and €15,000 depending on depth, rock and what’s included (Administrativando). Always ask for the price per metre and what the quote leaves out.

How is this list ordered?
