at our office). Alternatively, you can request a callback through our website, and
our team will guide you through the process. A site visit may be required to assess

availability. Typically, it takes 2-4 weeks after your application is approved and
payment is made. Our team will conduct a site visit and inform you of the timeline.

the type of connection (domestic, commercial, or institutional). A standard domestic
connection typically costs between Ksh. 5,000 and Ksh. 10,000, including the meter
fee. Contact our office for a detailed quotation after the site assessment.
