Gold Coast Water Bores

Gold Coast Water Bores is a specialist water bore and deep well drilling contractor supporting both construction projects and private water supply across South East Queensland and Northern New South Wales.

We are an established drilling contractor with industry experience dating back to 2007, delivering professional water bore and specialist drilling services across the Gold Coast, Brisbane, Sunshine Coast, and Northern NSW.

A significant portion of our work involves construction site drilling, including deep well installation for basement dewatering, groundwater monitoring wells, and contingency drilling support during live excavation. We regularly work on high-rise and multi-storey basement projects, restricted urban sites with limited access and headroom, and live construction environments where groundwater conditions directly affect programme sequencing.

At the same time, we continue to deliver domestic, rural, and acreage water bores, where clear advice, efficient drilling, and correct bore construction are just as important. Homeowners and rural clients benefit from our long-term local knowledge, realistic depth guidance, and practical understanding of groundwater conditions.

Our drilling capability includes air rotary, mud rotary, and CFA auger, allowing us to operate effectively across coastal sands, alluvium, basalt, and fractured rock. Long-term local experience supports efficient drilling outcomes and bore construction methods matched to site conditions.

We are known for being practical, responsive, and straightforward to deal with, whether working on major construction projects or private residential properties.
