We were really pleased with the service Matthew gave us when putting in a borehole for us .It has worked extremely well and is efficient and unobtrusive. Also Matthew came to give it a service a short while ago and it was all working perfectly. I thoroughly recommend Agricultural water engineers if you are thinking of installing a borehole for you house. Lady Tuckey, private house, Dorset
