History
Established in 2005.
Pickles Services is a family-owned and operated business that has steadily grown over the years into a trusted and dependable name in the septic repair and installation industry. What began as a modest operation built on hard work, dedication, and a desire to help our neighbors with their septic needs has blossomed into a company known for quality and personal service. From the beginning, we made a commitment to treat every customer like family, offering advice, reliable service, and fair, transparent pricing on every job we take on. Our team understands the importance of having a properly functioning septic system and the inconvenience and stress that comes with unexpected issues, which is why we strive to provide timely, efficient solutions without cutting corners or overcharging for unnecessary services. At Pickles Services, we believe in doing business the right way — showing up on time, communicating clearly, respecting our customers' property, and standing by the work we do.
Meet the Business Owner: Michael P.
Mike has always had a passion for entrepreneurship and a desire to build something of his own. He turned that ambition into reality by launching a drain cleaning company that specialized in high-pressure jetting. As demand for his services grew, so did the scope of his business, eventually expanding into septic system repairs, camera locating, and excavation work. Mike built strong business relationships, working with experienced owners of pumping and inspection companies, which allowed him to gain valuable knowledge and insight into the industry. The range of septic projects he’s handled over the years has given Mike a unique understanding of how these systems function. With a personal interest in real estate and deep roots in Frederick County, he enjoys the opportunity to meet homeowners, buyers, and agents throughout central Maryland. Mike takes pride in solving challenges, learning new skills, and helping others understand the ins and outs of this ever-evolving industry.
