Once again I thank Southern Downs Drilling for the opportunity given to me from winning their amazing $10,000 farm fest competition.
As a second time customer I was more than happy to have their professional team back again to find more water, which they didn't disappoint on!
After periods of dry time since the first bore was drilled 8 years ago it was an absolute necessity to have another bore drilled and we're extremely happy with the results, for us it means being able to keep up water to stock in dry times and to be able to greatly reduce the risk of a fire taking our home after a close call

I would have no hesitation recommending Southern Down Drilling. Travis and his team were delightful to deal with. They arrived when expected, were effective, efficient and professional and kept me well informed throughout the drilling process, which was very much appreciated. To top-off the experience, I now have a source of water to keep my gardens alive!

I engaged Travis to drill my bore I found him to be extremely professional and informative throughout the whole process.
My bore had some challenges as you can get when dealing with mother nature. Travis went to a great extent to explain what was happening prior and during the whole process I would recommend his services and would use him again.

I would highly recommend Travis and his team. Outstanding customer service - excellent and frequent communication and in a way I understood. Prompt, professional, turned up when they said they would. Really looked out for our property and were happy to work in an area with slightly difficult access. Very happy with the result and would really happily do it again. Thanks boys :)

We engaged Travis and his team at Southern Downs Drilling to dig a bore on our property at Glan Devon. They were totally upfront about the cost (per metre) and called during the drilling process to see if we wanted to proceed further as the depth was considerable and no water in site.
However we did strike water and I think they were as thrilled as we were.
Travis was courteous, punctual and communicated well - which is all you can ask for in a world where people fail to rock up and return calls. It was a nice change.

I am happy to recommend Southern Downs Drilling. Travis and his team put down a bore for us (stock and domestic purposes) in November of this year in the Toowoomba surrounding area. From the get go he was professional, honest and upfront with the entire process and costs involved. Travis is only too happy to communicate on a regular basis and is very approachable. I was comfortable and confident when dealing with him and his team.

Travis and Barry did a wonderful job sinking a bore in our yard. The location was difficult and reasonably confined, but the Southern Downs Drilling team went out of their way to ensure that they protected our property and caused as little disruption to our yard as possible. Having the Bore completed and providing us a consistent water supply has really changed our life and we thank Travis and the Team for the professional manner in which they completed the job.
Thanks
