Ogembo’s growing population and expanding tea farming activity have increased pressure on the town’s water sources, prompting more residents and institutions to invest in borehole drilling services rather than depend solely on rain-fed supply. A well-sited borehole can serve a household or small farm reliably for years, provided the drilling contractor understands the underlying rock formations. Here are five companies offering borehole drilling services in and around Ogembo.

1. Bestcare Borehole Drilling
Address: Ogembo Town, Kisii County
Bestcare Borehole Drilling provides complete borehole drilling services for households, tea farms, and institutions around Ogembo. Their process begins with a site survey to identify the most viable location on a plot, followed by drilling, casing, and pump installation once a productive aquifer has been confirmed. Given the hilly ground common in the area, extra care goes into casing selection to prevent collapse over time. They also carry out yield testing before handing over, so clients know exactly how much water their borehole can sustainably produce.
