About Advance Drill Technologies

We're a Western Washington drilling company. For years our work has sat under other people's projects: borings for geotechnical engineers, and wells for environmental consultants. Now we also fix drainage for homeowners, using what we've learned about the ground.

Meet Wade

Wade Betlaf owns and runs Advance Drill Technologies. He has worked with groundwater in this region for 30 years, and has run his own drilling company for the last eight. Most of that time has been spent drilling for engineering and environmental firms, logging exactly what's under the ground before anything gets built on it.

Over those years he has seen the same thing under property after property: water sitting on hardpan with nowhere to go, and drains that were put in without anyone checking what the ground would do. Advance Drainage Services is the answer to that. It's the same crew and the same standard, working on the homes and yards around us.

Our two marks

The original logo, on the door of the truck that tows the rig.

The drilling mark is the logo that has been on our trucks for years, cleaned up. Under the name, rays run down to the point of the V, like a bit going into the ground. The drainage mark is its sibling. It has the same frame and lettering, but the rays become water lines settling into the V, because that's the job: finding where water collects and moving it.
