Keeping Things Running Smoothly: Syd's Septic and Grease Services Brings Family Values to Essential Work

Some businesses operate in plain sight, while others handle the essential systems that keep homes and businesses running behind the scenes. Syd's Septic and Grease Services, based in Ormond Beach, falls firmly into the latter category, providing vital septic and grease trap services throughout Volusia County and the southern parts of Flagler County.

For owner Eric Graham, this isn't just a business. It's a family legacy built on honest work and local roots. "It's mine and my dad's company, and I'm born and raised in Ormond," Graham says. "I just want to provide honest, dependable service to all Ormond Beach and Volusia County."

A Trade Learned Young

Graham's journey into the septic services industry began much earlier than most careers do. "My dad worked for Woody's Septic when I was a kid, 10 years old, and he started bringing me with him on the weekends," he recalls. Those Saturday mornings spent doing pump outs and working on trucks alongside his father gave him a foundation that would shape his entire professional life.

Years later, that early exposure has translated into expertise and genuine passion for the work. What keeps Graham engaged in an industry many might overlook? "Septic is something that not a lot of people know about. It's kind of out of sight, out of mind," he explains. "I enjoy showing people and talking to them and tell them about what they got going on with their septic system."

When Others Can't Solve the Problem

Graham stays busy with pump outs throughout the region, with Ormond-by-the-Sea being a particularly active area for his services. But what truly makes a job satisfying for him goes beyond the day-to-day routine. "What makes someone stand out is when I could provide a service that helps out a customer, and something they might have had other people there that weren't able to figure out a problem for them or fix it," Graham says. "That makes it for me, is when I'm able to help solve the problem for them."

It's this problem-solving approach, combined with his willingness to tackle challenging jobs like locating and pumping out especially deep tanks, that sets Syd's Septic and Grease Services apart in the local market.

Why It Matters

While septic systems may be out of sight for most property owners, they're never truly out of mind when problems arise. Having a local, family-run business with deep community ties and a commitment to education and honest service provides peace of mind for homeowners and commercial clients alike. Graham's approach combines the technical expertise gained from decades in the field with the genuine care that comes from serving the community where he was born and raised.
