Slade Drilling Contractors
Slade Drilling originates from a family of drillers who commenced drilling on the Central Coast, NSW in 1959. Since this humble beginning the Slade family has drilled thousands of kilometres from Victoria to Far North Queensland for Mines, Exploration Companies, Councils, Farmers, and many more for a variety of reasons.

Our experience and know how has developed over two generations and continues to develop into our third generation. Phillip Slade, Managing Director of SLADE Pty Ltd Drilling Contractors trained as a maintenance fitter/machinist/welder in the Coal Mines and has managed the company since 1983. In this time Phillip has a gained significant experience including coal, methane drainage, gold, mineral sands and town water supplies just to name a few.

Report
Drilling a bore is a process of uncertainty - about whether the water is, how deep to go, when to stop drilling etc. Phil and Luke were frank about these uncertainties, keep us informed about progress and were realistic in their assessments of the benefits and costs of going deeper or stopping. Not a cheap exercise but they were fair in addressing the (inevitable) added costs as the drilling unfolded.
