Built on a Lifetime of Serving the Community
Doris L. Chitwood
Owner, DLC Septic & Lawn Services
DLC Septic & Lawn Services is owned by Doris L. Chitwood, whose commitment to serving others didn't start with this business.
Doris has been serving her community since 1973 in the medical field, dedicating decades to helping others. Today, she continues that same level of care and attention through DLC Septic & Lawn Services, where she remains actively involved in the business and the customers it serves. It's not uncommon for Doris to personally stop by a job site, check on progress, or meet homeowners face-to-face.
That same service-first mindset is the foundation of everything we do.
Licensed Experience You Can Rely On
Joseph W. Chitwood
Licensed Septic Professional — SC DES
On the operational side, Joseph W. Chitwood, Doris's son, serves as a licensed septic professional with the South Carolina Department of Environmental Services (SC DES).
Joseph oversees all onsite septic work, including:
- Septic tank installations
- System repairs
- Routine pumping and maintenance
His hands-on involvement ensures every job is completed correctly, safely, and in full compliance with state regulations.
A True Family Operation
Family is at the core of DLC Septic & Lawn Services. Multiple generations are involved in the business, including Doris's grandsons, who actively work alongside the team in the field.
This isn't just a company — it's a family working together to serve their community with pride, accountability, and consistency.
When you work with DLC, you're not dealing with a large, impersonal company. You're working with people who live here, work here, and genuinely care about doing right by their neighbors.
