This recognition reflects the daily effort our team puts into keeping safety at the forefront, whether we’re building drills in the shop, loading equipment, working through service, or supporting customers in the field.

Huge congratulations to the WORD team for continuing to do the work the right way, safely, consistently, and with care.

While training the crew at BlueStone, Inc. in New York, our tech George captured this footage as they dialed in the machine before it made its way to the jobsite. With the power of this WORD Excavator Attachment, this team has seen incredible production and is able to drill one foot every 12 seconds as they quarry blue stone.

Now that’s what we call rock-solid support and performance from start to finish.

Some jobs don’t give you easy access. This drill was working from the end of a 100’ reach, drilling into the side of a rock wall where positioning, control, and the right equipment all matter.

Whether it’s slope stabilization, rock anchors, or hard-to-reach drilling applications, WORD drills are built to help crews get where the work needs to happen.

Tough terrain doesn’t stop the job. It only changes the setup.

Soil nail walls may not be the prettiest part of a project, but they are doing some serious work behind the scenes.

When crews are stabilizing slopes, supporting excavations, or reinforcing rock and soil faces, soil nails help lock everything together so the work above and around it can move forward with confidence.

Projects like this are exactly why having the right drilling equipment matters. Access can be tight, ground conditions can change fast, and accuracy is not optional. Whether it is rock, tough soil, or a wall full of “well, this just got interesting,” WORD drills are built to help contractors make a way through difficult ground conditions.

Because before a wall can hold strong, someone has to drill the path forward.

Happy 1st WORDiversary, Sam!

Sam is one of our amazing Assembly Technicians, helping build the drills that head out of our shop and into the field. Over the past year, he’s become a valued part of the assembly team, bringing steady hands, a great attitude, and plenty of personality to the floor.

He’s also earned the unofficial title of our resident TikTokker, always coming up with new ideas, keeping things fun, and sharing a kind or funny word along the way. Sam has a way of bringing good energy wherever he goes, and we’re thankful for the creativity, humor, and positivity he adds to the WORD team.

Congratulations on one year with WORD, Sam! We’re grateful to have you on the team and excited to see what year two brings.

Not a bad view from the office window.

A few days ago, the third WORD Rock Drill for Brooks Construction was loaded up and headed out, and we have to say, seeing a brand-new drill leave our shop never gets old.

There’s just something about watching our assembly team’s hard work roll out the door, ready to get to work in the field. Big thanks to our crew for making it happen and to Brooks Construction for trusting WORD Rock Drills.

Now that’s a beautiful sight.

POV: You’re in the skid steer, helping bring 1,800 acres of solar work to life.

Our customer Conductor Power is building out a large-scale solar field with 5 SS WORD drills on site, and this view comes straight from Clinton, our newest Field Service Technician. From the operator’s seat, Clinton captured George training the customer on the drill controls, which is a key part of getting a crew comfortable, confident, and ready to work.

At WORD Rock Drills, our support doesn’t stop when the equipment leaves our shop. For customers who want additional hands-on support, installation and on-site training can be added to their drill purchase to help get the machine dialed in and ready for the field.

Five drills. 1,800 acres. One jobsite built to power the future.
