DrillX QLD is a leading provider of directional drilling, rock drilling, civil works, and underground utilities installation. We operate from our base in Toowoomba with the capability to service projects across Queensland, neighbouring states, and international locations when required. Our team carries more than a decade of practical industry experience and a strong reputation for delivering safe, timely, and high quality results on every project.

What We Do

We specialise in Horizontal Directional Drilling (HDD), trenchless installations for power conduits, water and sewer services, fibre and communications cabling, road and rail crossings, and underground service relocations.

Our fleet includes a wide range of modern machinery including directional drills, rock rigs, vac trucks, excavation plant, cable trailers, and support vehicles. This allows us to match the right equipment to the job so that each project is completed efficiently and correctly.

We offer full project delivery from site preparation and drilling through to excavation, installation, civil works, reinstatement, and final commissioning. This gives clients a single point of accountability and a streamlined delivery process.

Demonstrated Competency

DrillX QLD recently completed an 11 kilometre rock build for QCN, showcasing our ability to deliver long distance and high difficulty drilling works.

We also delivered the high voltage power civil works for John Holland on the QTMP project. This demonstrates our capability to meet strict engineering standards, work within complex construction environments, and deliver results for major contractors.

These projects highlight our ability to handle tight timeframes, difficult ground conditions, and the technical requirements of both power and communications infrastructure.
