Drilldown Vol. 003 - Winter 2026

STATEMENT FROM THE CEO WE’VE SEEN THIS MOVIE BEFORE.

The Drillcut team on site in 2020, staying close to projects through COVID restrictions.

Drillcut was born in a recession. My father started this business in 1988, when there was one tower crane in the Melbourne skyline. We came up through the early 90s. We were here for the GFC. We were here for COVID. And every time this industry gets put in a corner, we learn the same lesson.

You don’t curl up. You look around.

Now - I’ll be honest with you. We’re a family business. No shareholders to keep happy. No board chasing a quarterly number. We have one stakeholder. You. So when things get hard, we don’t ask how do we protect our margin. We ask...

HOW DO WE MAKE SURE OUR CUSTOMERS GET THROUGH THIS?

And yes - selfishly - that’s because we’ve never succeeded any other way. We only win when you win. So if we have to wear a blow in the short term to keep you moving, we’ll wear it. Every time.

Laurence (Drillcut) on site, helping keep communication clear and projects moving where it counts.
