Clearwater Team

From a small garage to a 5+ person crew to a Forest Grove storefront, Dave has paved the way to professional pump services in the northwest.

Hi, I am Bob. I have been in the pump and construction industry for over 40+ years and have had the opportunity to grow alongside this industry. Interacting with customers and having built long lasting ties with them has been very fulfilling for me. I enjoy teaching the youngsters coming into the trade and showing them some of the ole’ tricks of the trade.

I have been in the pump and irrigation field for the past 24 years. I started out in this industry as a pump technician and grew into the irrigation design and installation of things. Being a pump technician was very rewarding, I got to go out and get someone back into water, that is a great feeling. I have had the opportunity to meet so many people and grow with them over the years and it has been very rewarding and I wouldn’t trade it for anything!

We design, service and install centrifugal pumps, vertical turbine pumps, submersible turbine pumps, motor controls, energy saving variable frequency drives, disc filters, and sand media filters.

I have been welding for over 5 years. This is my second year working in the industry. I enjoy the variety of work that I do between pump and irrigation work. In my spare time I enjoy working on cars and catching lizards.

I am a person that loves to learn new things and will always find a way to get the job done right! I install and service domestic, agricultural and municipal water systems. I have 17 years’ experience in the industry. I love this line of work because of the satisfaction of building something from nothing or improving what’s already there. I would say my favorite part of what I do is the relationships with customers that have developed over the years and I look forward too many more in the future.

I have been in the well industry for 6 years. I specialize in water treatment and well pumps. I like working in the industry because you learn something new every day and you are always moving around.

I joined the team in June of 2017. Before coming to work at clearwater, I was the owner/managing partner of Sims Drilling LLC, a family owned and operated water pump and drilling company in Illinois. After 30 years in the family business, I decided to go on a new adventure, selling the business and moving to Oregon with my wife, Susan. I feel the most rewarding part of this job is working with customers to find the best solution to their water problems.

What I enjoy most about this trade is working with the customers, building relationships and helping people get back up and running with water.

I am new to the business, I have had experience working in my father in laws farm in Saint Paul, OR. I’ve always enjoyed agriculture and wanted to understand better the irrigation side of it and I have Clearwater to thank for this great opportunity.
