The company began with a young and energetic entrepreneur, Bill Tuytel. Bill first spent 7 years for SDS Drilling in Alberta as well as in BC, learning everything he could about soils and the industry before starting up his own drilling business. His experience included the pre- drilling for the Alex Fraser Bridge, Expo 86 construction like Science World and Canada Place and as well the associated sky train projects at that time. He also did a major part of the drilling in the mountainous terrain for the then new Coquihalla Highway project. When at just 26 years of age he felt he wanted to start on his own and thought of the name Downrite Drilling which is still going strong today. It took two years to initiate the business into full production. Bill purchased a 1980 Bombardier and built his first Auger rig on that carrier. He began drilling for clients across the lower mainland and soon gained a reputation for his knowledge, dependability, and dedicated crew members.
