The Freddy Group
In Zimbabwe, borehole drilling is a regulated activity. Every contractor must meet the requirements set by the Zimbabwe National Water Authority (ZINWA) before commencing any drilling operation. The Freddy Group operates in full compliance with all applicable legislation.
We hold the necessary permits and registrations to operate across all provinces, and we observe all environmental protection and water abstraction regulations on every project we undertake. When you work with us, you receive documentation that protects your investment and ensures your borehole is legally compliant.
Our commitment to compliance is not just legal obligation — it is a mark of professional integrity. We maintain accurate records, submit required reports, and work transparently with regulatory bodies at every stage.
Zimbabwe National Water Authority
All boreholes drilled under a valid ZINWA water abstraction permit. We manage the permit application process on behalf of clients and ensure full documentation is in place before drilling commences.
Zimbabwe Revenue Authority · ZIMRA
Fully registered business entity in Zimbabwe, compliant with all tax obligations. We issue proper invoices and documentation for every project, ensuring clean records for our clients.
Zimbabwe Drilling Contractors Association

Site Assessment Before Every Drill
Every project begins with a formal hydrogeological site assessment to identify optimal drill points, assess groundwater potential, and evaluate environmental sensitivity — in accordance with ZINWA guidelines.
Licensed Borehole Logging
Every borehole is logged during drilling and a completion report submitted to ZINWA as required by the Water Act. Clients receive a copy of all logs and documentation for their records.
Water Quality Testing
We conduct basic water quality tests on completion of each borehole and can arrange certified laboratory analysis for potable water applications, ensuring supply meets ZINWA and WHO standards.
Environmental Protection
All drilling waste and fluids are managed and disposed of responsibly. We restore drill sites on completion and minimise disturbance to surrounding land.
Client Documentation Package
On project completion you receive a full documentation package: borehole log, pump test report, water quality results, permit copies, and maintenance recommendations. Everything needed for your property records.
