Bernard “Buster” Sloot is an experienced professional and knowledgeable businessman who has supported the Karratha community since he founded NW Communications over 30 years ago.
Buster has lived in the town of Karratha since he was 5 years old, when his father worked for Hamersley Iron and his mother was a nurse at Dampier Hospital. Buster, who ironically gained his nickname from his mother for breaking all his toys, has always had a fascination with how things work, which led him to become a qualified auto-electrician for a number of years before finding his passion in technology and telecommunications, and starting NW Communications in 1992.
Busters’ hardworking nature and dedication, attributed to the resilience of his parents, is the reason NW Communications continues to deliver excellence today. His skilled team and returning customers can always rely on his expertise and experience to provide dependable solutions to their needs.
Buster met and married his wife, Helen, 39 years ago in Karratha, where they raised their three sons. They are now loving grandparents to six grandchildren and are lucky to still call Karratha home.
I have always found NW Comms to be easy to contact, very knowledgeable and issues are always resolved promptly with little to no fuss. They have a full working knowledge of our databases, systems and procedures.
Highly recommend.
Our group of companies has offices in Brisbane and Sunshine Coast. We were a little apprehensive starting a business in provincial Karratha. Worldwide connections are critical to our businesses. We engaged NW Communications & IT to improve the internet infrastructure. We also needed help with guest entertainment, and we updated our office software. The level of service and expertise from the staff at NW Communications & IT was prompt and first class. We would be proud to recommend their services.
You guys do a fantastic job, we really appreciate it.
We’ve been working with NW Comms for our IT and CCTV needs, and they have been an absolute game-changer for our business. From the start, they’ve been incredibly easy to work with—responsive, friendly, and professional. Their deep knowledge of the industry is evident in everything they do, and we’ve always felt confident that we’re getting the best possible advice and solutions. Whether it’s troubleshooting or upgrading systems, their expertise has been invaluable. I highly recommend NW Comms to anyone looking for top-notch IT and communication services.

The Breast Cancer Foundation of WA (BCFWA) is a not for profit organisation that receives no government funding and therefore must raise its own funds in order to continue providing ‘free’ support services to Western Australians affected by breast cancer.
With this in mind, we rely heavily on the generosity of fellow Western Australians, by way of cash donations and goods and services in kind. We can’t thank you enough for installing our phone system, at your own expense, that was recently donated to the BCFWA. We realise that in these busy times, allocating your staff to a job with no financial gain is difficult. We also appreciate that the process created very little disruption to our operations. Your generosity means that our limited funds can be allocated to where they are really needed, rather than on operational requirements. Thank you for helping us make a difference.
