Professional & Experienced Drillers in Queensland
Passionate Drillers With Real Experience
At Schuey Brothers Drilling, based in Kingaroy, our story is built on grit, passion, and a lifelong love for drilling. Founded by brothers and best mates Evan and Wayne Schumacher, we are an owner-operated business delivering professional, reliable, and safe drilling solutions across Queensland.
From our humble beginnings as teenage farmhands on Clark’s Avocado Farm in Blackbutt, our journey began with a second-hand drill rig and a dream to do it better. With sheer determination and a hands-on approach, we’ve built a trusted name in the industry—one bore, one challenge, and one satisfied client at a time.
We don’t just know drilling—we live and breathe it.
Family-Run Business With A Proven Track Record
As brothers who have always worked side by side, Evan and Wayne bring unmatched teamwork and dedication to every job. Since launching Schuey Brothers Drilling in 2008, they’ve drilled thousands of bores through some of Queensland’s toughest conditions—from basalt and hydrating clays to hard granite.
With Evan holding a driller’s licence and both brothers operating the rig daily, you’re dealing with people who take pride in every hole sunk. It’s this hands-on leadership, technical skill, and hard-earned knowledge that make the difference in performance, safety, and long-term results.

Our Mission And Values
Our goal is simple: to provide safe, efficient, high-quality drilling services that deliver value for money. Whether we’re sinking a domestic bore, supporting a miningogramme, or completing a geotechnical survey, we approach every project with:
- Integrity
- Hard work
- Safety-first mindset
- Customer-first focus
We’re proud to offer fast, flexible, and affordable drilling services without ever compromising on quality or reputation. We know the value of a good name—and we work every day to protect ours.
From Dream To Drilling Success
What started with a second-hand 1980s Fox B40 rig (and everything we owned on the line) has now grown into a full-service operation. We've built a fleet that includes upgraded compressors, support trucks, and a high-capacity secondary rig for exploration and coring.
And while we’ve expanded our capabilities, we’ve never lost our core focus: drilling the right way, the safe way, and the honest way.
We drill because we love it—and because no one does it quite like we do.
