About J Gallagher Septic

I started pumping septic tanks when I was 17 years old during high school on the weekends, and full time after I graduated. I really didn't have any plans for college so I stuck with it, not realizing then how much I was learning about the industry, the skills I was developing, and most important the people and relationships I was building house after house, tank after tank, family after family. Eventually I knew that I could do this on my own. So in 1988 at age of 25, after working for a septic company for 7 years, I set off on my own risking a good job, great pay, and most important a roof over my head. I was determined to make it work and now, years later, I'm still building relationships one septic tank at a time.

I am extremely fortunate to have a great staff and family supporting me. They are true assets to this company. Sue Gallagher, my wife since 1989 and a part of this company from its beginning, is our office manager. Joe Gallagher, my dedicated brother, has been an operator/driver since the early 1990’s. Tim Russell, also an operator/driver and well known in the industry, came on board with us in 2003. Robin Mastrippolito is the friendly voice you talk to when you call our office that will schedule your appointment or answer your questions. She has been with us for more than 5 years. And Chepo, our laborer, has worked with us for the past few years. It is because of them, and their hard work and loyalty, that we can give our customers great service. Jim Gallagher
