Dayton has grown fast. Newer subdivisions often tie into utilities, but older Dayton, the river lots, and acreage toward Mound House and Stagecoach still run on septic.
If your Dayton home is on septic, we'll get a licensed, state-permitted pumper to your property with the price agreed up front. Pump-outs, inspections for home sales, alarm calls, risers, and drainfield repair.
