THE HISTORY OF STUTH COMPANY
Stuth Company opened its doors for business in Washington State in 1962 as Stuth Ditching. The primary operation was the installation and repair of residential onsite sewage systems. By 1964, owner, William L. Stuth (Bill Stuth Sr.) was designing septic systems and providing pump out services for septic tanks.
In 1972, Stuth Company Inc., purchased and relocated the company to commercial property in Renton, Washington. We began manufacturing septic tanks and other concrete products. The company operated with two installing crews. In 1975, the company incorporated changing its name to Stuth Company Inc., Bill Stuth Jr., Senior's son, continued to work for his father, gain-ing knowledge, experience, and contacts within the industry. Bill Jr. attained his installer's license and operated his own installing crew. His involvement with the company allowed Bill Sr. to pursue research and development within the industry. Bill Stuth Sr. started a project for King County and the State of Washington Department of Health to study the advantages of compartmenting septic tanks while Bill Jr. continued to operate a crew and taking a more active role in the running of the company. This study became instrumental in the state changing from single compartment tanks to compartmented tanks.
In 1984, Stuth Company Inc., relocated again, to more favorable site on the Maple Valley Highway which allowed more room for expansion and broadening of services. Bill Stuth Jr. had become proficient at installing, designing, repairing and pumping. Both Stuth's shared an appreciation and strong interest in troubleshooting and analyzing failed systems as well as gaining an understanding of new technologies.
