Our Story
In the heart of Suwannee County, Raymond & Diane have built a legacy on hard work and dedication. Raymond Howard, a lifelong resident, has poured over 45 years into the septic industry. He started young, learning the trade under the watchful eye of his father, Calvin Howard, installing and pumping septic systems since he was just 14 years old.
In 1996, Raymond decided to carve out his own path. With his wife, Diane, by his side, they launched Raymond Howard's Septic LLC— known around here as "Raymond's Septic." What began as a small family venture has grown, fueled by their unwavering commitment to quality service and a genuine care for the community. For many years, Raymond and Diane ran the business on their own, but as it grew, their children stepped in to keep the family tradition. Together, they embody the hard-working spirit that defines our family and our roots in this community.
Randy Howard, their son, brings a wealth of knowledge in both septic systems and wastewater treatment. Growing up by his father's side, he learned the value of hard work and craftsmanship from an early age. After managing a water treatment facility for several years, Randy returned to the family business to oversee new installations and repairs, including drain field setups. His commitment to quality and family values ensures that every job is done right, reflecting the dedication that's been passed down through generations.
Courtnie, their daughter, who has been part of business since childhood. She grew up riding along with her daddy and helping her mama with administrative tasks. After spending time raising her three boys, she returned to the company as manager and administrative assistant, ensuring smooth operations behind the scenes.

Sharon P
Customer"Our septic was backing up and we didn't know what to do. The next availability was the next day. Derek came out pretty early on in the day and pumped out the tank in a timely manner. He answered all of my questions and also made suggestions to possibly help our drainage field recover and start working the way it should. It was over all a very pleasant experience all things considered. The only thing that would have been really great is if they offered a military discount, but the price was reasonable, service was prompt, and the staff were friendly and knowledgeable!"
Melani M
Customer"Derrick was very professional and knowledgeable about telling us to treat our septic to last us up to 3 to 5 years. We thank him for his honesty as just 3 years ago we had our tank pumped and they only took out the liquid NOT the solid waste! Derrick took the time to explain everything we needed to do to maintain our septic. We would highly recommend Raymond Howard's Septic service and Derrick to pump your tank. Thank you!"
