OUR STORY

A1 Septic & Drain Cleaning has been family owned for over 20 years. Shane Stech purchased the business from his wife Heather’s Uncle in 2014. Heather is an RN with Cedar Valley Primary Access in Waterloo, IA. They live in La Porte City and have 2 son’s, Dylan and Brandon. Dylan and Brandon both majored in Business Management at the University of Northern Iowa.

In 2016 Shane hired Heather’s sister, Courtney Foulk, as his office manager. She doesn’t just manage the business, she has also been known to “manage” their entire family. Courtney is married to Andy Foulk. They also live in La Porte City and have 3 children Shay (married to Hannah), Bailey, and Brody.

In December 2019 Shane hired Sean Schott, long-time friend of the family. Sean is married to Carrie, they have two grown children, Kyle and Jenna. Sean works part-time for A1, when he isn’t helping us, he stays busy as a Waterloo Firefighter, and he is also the owner/operator of Schott Construction.

A1 prides itself on customer service and satisfaction. We are available to help 24/7. The majority of our customers are businesses/restaurants in the Waterloo and Cedar Falls area. We value customer referrals and feel the ultimate compliment is when a new customer calls and said they were referred by one of our other customers.

If you are not 100% satisfied with our service and would not want to refer your family or friends to us please call Shane. He will want to know why and figure out how to remedy things. EVERY customer is important to us, no matter how big or small the job is!!
