When someone thinks Water Bores Melville they think of Virgin Bores. Chances are we’ve drilled or repaired a bore in your street.
For well over 18 years now Virgin Water Bores have been drilling water bores for Perth gardens. Of the 1000’s of new water bores, Melville, Booragoon, Myaree, O’Connor and surrounding suburbs feature highly on the list. Why? Gardens are an important feature of this attractive area with many homes still located on larger blocks. In many of the less elevated lower parts of Melville, water bores do not need to be drilled very deep so they are cost effective. In a relatively short period of time you will be saving.
In the Perth Swan Coastal Plain, depth to groundwater is very much related to how high the property is above sea level. Melville water bores are often drilled to between 18 to 40 metres as a consequence of the varying elevations.
Ordinarily we drill 12 metres past the static water level of the superficial aquifer. There are obvious exceptions in the drilling depth required if the property is in one of the more elevated streets such as around Brooksby Street or parts of Kitchener Road.

There are still many of the old well style bores scattered throughout Melville in the gardens of older homes. These bores wells often contain a centrifugal pump in concrete well liners. You will notice them by the large tin lids above the surface. As they get older, service requirements attending to failed check valves, lost prime or fused motors increase.
