Uni-tech Drilling Company

What Uni-tech Drilling Company does

Uni-Tech Drilling Co., Inc. is a privately held, New Jersey-incorporated specialty drilling contractor founded in 1986 and headquartered in Franklinville, NJ. The company delivers commercial and governmental drilling services across the northeast US — specifically New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Delaware, and Maryland — serving engineering and construction firms, environmental consulting firms, government agencies, and water well owners. It is not a software or technology platform; its deliverables are physical drilling outcomes executed by licensed Master and Journeyman well drillers using a diversified fleet of owned equipment.

The service portfolio is broad by industry standards and spans five core lines: water well drilling (residential through 24" x 1,800' production wells plus rehabilitation), geotechnical drilling (soil borings, rock coring, vane shear testing for dams, bridges, and buildings), environmental drilling (monitoring wells, extraction wells, groundwater sampling, soil vapor points, remediation support), barge drilling (barrel float, steel, and Jack-Up barges for over-water sampling and coring), and cathodic protection drilling to depths of 1,000 feet. Supporting capabilities include six drilling methodologies (mud rotary, hollow stem auger, air rotary, reverse rotary, direct push, drive and wash), Geoprobe direct-push sampling, and a water pump and motor service line covering 1/2 HP to 300 HP installations, rewinds, VFDs, and custom fabrication. Equipment includes CME track and truck rigs, Geoprobe 6610DT/7822DT units, mud, air, and reverse rigs, plus a full in-house mechanical shop.

Revenue is earned through project-based professional services contracts: each engagement is quoted individually based on scope, depth, diameter, drilling method, site accessibility, and project requirements, and executed on the customer's site using company-owned equipment and personnel. Go-to-market is sales-led and direct — website, phone (856.694.4200; 1-800-692-0222), and email — targeting enterprise industrial, commercial, and government buyers. The company holds no patents, has no disclosed funding rounds, no M&A history, and no reported ownership changes; it operates as an independent regional contractor supported by memberships in NGWA, AWWA, and NJGWA and prequalification on contractor management platforms (ISNET World, PICS Auditing, Avetta).
