A quieter kind
of excellence,
since 1997.

For nearly three decades, WEST Drilling has been the geotechnical and environmental drilling firm that engineering teams quietly recommend to one another.

Licensed, owner-operated, and headquartered in Waxahachie. We serve consulting engineers, environmental firms, and industrial clients across Texas and Oklahoma — with the same care and discipline they would extend to their own work.

№ 01 · The Practice

Founded in 1997. Licensed. Owner-operated. Quietly relied upon.

A profile of WEST Drilling — its people, its standards, and the long-running relationships with the firms that count on it.

Founded in 1997, WEST Drilling offers solutions to drilling needs through a licensed and reliable team. High productivity. Modern, well-maintained equipment. And the kind of dependability that earns repeat work without ever asking for it.

"We currently own and operate one Geoprobe 6610 DT and three CME 75 high-torque drill rigs."

Our rigs are equipped with auto hammer, hollow-stem auger, and air and wash rotary capabilities. We also offer Hydro Vac (potholing) services using either water or air media, plus precision concrete saw cutting up to 7-5/8 inches deep.

We don't subcontract our reputation. Every borehole is run by our crew, on our equipment, to our standards — the way it's been done since the firm was founded.
