Nano Hydro LTD: Professional Borehole Drilling Services Across Kenya — With Flexible Installment Payment Options
Access to clean, reliable water is one of the most pressing challenges facing homes, farms, schools, and businesses across Kenya. Municipal water supply is often inconsistent, expensive, and in many parts of the country, simply unavailable. For thousands of Kenyan households and enterprises, borehole drilling has become the most practical, long-term solution to water security — and one company has emerged as a trusted name in delivering that solution across the country.
Nano Hydro LTD is a professional borehole drilling company operating in Nairobi and throughout Kenya, offering end-to-end water solutions from initial site assessment all the way through to pump installation, water treatment, and ongoing maintenance. What sets Nano Hydro apart from the competition is not just their technical expertise — it is their commitment to making borehole drilling accessible to every client through flexible installment payment plans that remove the barrier of large upfront costs.
Who Is Nano Hydro LTD?
Nano Hydro LTD was established with a clear mission: to provide Kenyans with dependable, affordable access to underground water. The company operates across Nairobi and extends its services to all 47 counties in Kenya, covering urban suburbs, peri-urban estates, agricultural land, and remote rural communities alike. Their team comprises licensed hydrogeologists, experienced drilling engineers, and certified pump technicians who bring both technical precision and genuine local knowledge to every project.
The company has built its reputation on three pillars: quality workmanship, transparent pricing, and exceptional aftercare. Whether a client needs a single residential borehole in Karen or a high-yield commercial borehole for a flower farm in Nakuru, Nano Hydro approaches every project with the same level of professionalism and dedication to results.

Services Offered by Nano Hydro LTD
1. Hydrogeological Survey & Site Assessment
Before any drilling begins, Nano Hydro conducts a thorough hydrogeological survey of the proposed site. This involves analysing geological maps, reviewing satellite data, and conducting on-site geophysical surveys using resistivity and seismic refraction techniques. The goal is to identify the most productive aquifer location — minimising the risk of a dry or low-yield borehole and ensuring the client’s investment delivers maximum water output.
This preliminary stage is critical and is often skipped by less reputable drillers in Kenya, leading to costly dry holes. Nano Hydro’s investment in proper site assessment is one of the key reasons their success rate is consistently high across diverse geological conditions.
2. Borehole Drilling
Nano Hydro’s core service is professional borehole drilling using modern, high-capacity rotary and air percussion drilling rigs capable of reaching depths of up to 300 metres or beyond. The company drills boreholes for:
- Residential properties — private homes, apartments, and gated communities in Nairobi and beyond
- Commercial and industrial premises — factories, warehouses, office parks, and hospitality establishments
- Agricultural and irrigation use — farms, greenhouses, flower farms, dairy operations, and irrigation schemes
- Institutions — schools, hospitals, churches, and NGO facilities
- County and community projects — public water access points and community boreholes
All boreholes are drilled, cased, and grouted in accordance with the Water Act 2016 and the standards set by the Water Resources Authority (WRA) of Kenya.
3. Borehole Casing & Completion
Once drilling reaches the productive aquifer, Nano Hydro installs high-quality PVC or steel casing to stabilise the borehole walls, prevent collapse, and protect against surface contamination. The completion process includes screen installation at the water-bearing zones, gravel packing for optimal water flow, and top-of-borehole sanitary sealing.
Proper casing and completion determine the long-term productivity and hygiene of the borehole. Nano Hydro uses only certified materials and follows internationally recognised well-completion protocols.
4. Pump Supply & Installation
A drilled borehole without a pump is of limited use. Nano Hydro supplies and installs a full range of submersible pumps and surface pumps suited to varying depths, water yields, and intended uses. They work with reputable pump brands including Grundfos, Pedrollo, Franklin Electric, and Davis & Shirtliff to ensure clients receive reliable, energy-efficient equipment with manufacturer warranties.
The company offers both solar-powered pump systems and electric pump configurations, making their solutions practical for both grid-connected urban properties and off-grid rural or agricultural settings. Solar borehole pumps are increasingly popular across Kenya given the rising cost of electricity and the country’s excellent solar irradiation.
5. Water Quality Testing & Treatment
Clean water is not simply a matter of finding it underground — it must meet safe consumption and usage standards. Nano Hydro offers on-site and laboratory water quality testing covering pH levels, bacterial contamination, turbidity, mineral content, and the presence of contaminants such as fluoride, nitrates, and heavy metals.
Where treatment is required, the company designs and installs appropriate treatment systems including UV sterilisation units, reverse osmosis systems, sand and carbon filtration, and chlorination systems. This ensures that clients receive water that is safe for drinking, cooking, irrigation, or industrial use as applicable.
6. Borehole Rehabilitation & Maintenance
Existing boreholes that have declined in yield, developed mechanical faults, or become contaminated can often be restored to full productivity. Nano Hydro provides borehole rehabilitation services including pump removal and servicing, borehole flushing and surging, mechanical cleaning, and re-development of clogged screens.
They also offer scheduled preventive maintenance contracts for commercial, agricultural, and institutional clients to keep pumping systems running efficiently and extend the operational lifespan of the borehole investment.
7. Water Storage & Reticulation
Beyond the borehole itself, Nano Hydro assists clients with the full water infrastructure picture — designing and installing storage tanks, pressure systems, header tanks, and piped distribution networks to deliver water exactly where it is needed on the property.
Flexible Installment Payment Plans
One of Nano Hydro LTD’s most distinctive and client-friendly features is their flexible installment payment option. Borehole drilling is a significant capital investment, and the company recognises that paying the full project cost upfront is not always feasible for individual homeowners, small-scale farmers, or community institutions.
Nano Hydro structures affordable payment plans that allow clients to spread the cost of their borehole project across agreed milestones or monthly installments, making long-term water security accessible to a much wider range of Kenyans. Payment terms are discussed and agreed upon transparently before any work begins, with no hidden charges or penalty clauses for clients meeting their agreed schedule.
