About Us

Bores NT is a Northern Territory owned drilling and boring company, operating from Acacia Hills in the greater Darwin region.

The company has been established for over 25 years and is divided into two distinct areas:
  1. Water bores: We have specialist teams of drillers and crew with many years of experience drilling stock, domestic and industrial bores throughout the NT. A good deal of our business is repeat work with customers that have been provided with quality service and outcomes in the past and desire that experience again for their water requirements. The company takes pride in only providing works that are fully compliant to local legislation and carried out by fully licenced drillers. Bores NT bestows a 5 year warranty on all water bores it drills and completes to ensure that the end user is confident they are purchasing a quality product and outcome. See more on Bore Drilling.
