Ground and Water in Woodstock
- No published groundwater study covers Woodstock street by street, so neighbours' boreholes and a site check are the best guide.
- Older industrial areas can have contaminated ground, so test the water before any household use.
What Affects Borehole Work in Woodstock
- Semis and narrow streets leave little room for a rig; give the property width and parking.
- Businesses and workshops may need registration or authorisation for their water use.
City of Cape Town Rules
- Apply to the City at least 14 days before a borehole or wellpoint is sunk, then register it once it is in.
- Borehole and wellpoint water use must be metered, and records kept.
Using borehole water inside the house needs City approval. See borehole installation in Cape Town for the full rules.

Borehole Installation Woodstock FAQs
Wellpoint or borehole in Woodstock?
There is no published local data, so ask contractors what nearby properties use. A wellpoint only works in sand with shallow water; otherwise a borehole is needed.
Do I need permission for a borehole in Woodstock?
Yes, from the City of Cape Town: apply at least 14 days before sinking it and register it afterwards. Household use needs no national registration.
Can a business in Woodstock use borehole water?
Yes, but business use falls outside Schedule 1 and may need registration or a licence, as well as City approval. Ask the contractor to help check.
