Company History
Kamaaina Pumping began as a small service operation focused on septic pumping and basic plumbing in Hilo. Over time it expanded its scope as island homes needed more frequent inspections because of heavy rain, older pipe systems, and coastal conditions. Growth came through steady local referrals and repeat business from homeowners and small businesses.
The company kept a practical approach: hire experienced technicians, invest in inspection equipment, and maintain clear job records for property owners. That approach shaped steady, incremental growth rather than rapid expansion.
Leadership
Leadership is local and hands-on. The owner-operator has long ties to the community and maintains regular field presence. Staff training emphasizes local code, island-specific soil and drainage issues, and safe handling of septic systems near coastal zones.
Team members take part in community events and coordinate with local suppliers to keep parts and equipment moving on short island timelines.
