How it started
A.T. Dunn started the business when he was 21 and later served 26 years in the military. He brought the same discipline to septic work that he learned in uniform. In 2017 his son Jeff Dunn took over as owner, and in 2020 Jeff’s son Jeffery joined the crew after an accelerated course of study. He is still studying the field.
[CLIENT FACT: years in business: the old site says over 30, over four decades and 40+, the Facebook page says 35 and the BBB lists 1979]
The company pumps and cleans tanks, and installs, repairs and inspects septic systems for homes, businesses and real estate transactions. Emergency calls are part of the job.
