What Tom Evans Environmental does
Tom Evans Environmental, Inc. is a value-added distributor of water and wastewater pumping and treatment equipment headquartered in Lakeland, Florida, operating since approximately 1996. The company is an authorized distributor for a curated portfolio of established equipment manufacturers including Ebara (pumps up to 800 HP and 35,000 GPM), Pioneer Pump (a Franklin Electric subsidiary), Amiad (filtration systems from 2 to 3,500 microns), Erhard, Armacon, Glasco, Simflo, and Never Gall. Rather than developing proprietary technology, Tom Evans Environmental provides application engineering and equipment configuration expertise across pumps, valves and actuators, filters, UV equipment, and custom equipment solutions. Its customer base is horizontally segmented across municipal utilities managers, consulting engineers, and contractors operating in Florida.
The business operates three revenue streams. Equipment distribution generates one-time revenue through resale of capital pumping and treatment equipment. A repair shop and warehouse facility at 3609 Ventura Drive East, Lakeland, provides aftermarket repair services, parts supply, and shipping/receiving handled by a dedicated shop operations manager and technician staff. A field service team, led by a Field Service Manager with field technicians, delivers on-site installation support, maintenance, and technical service.
The go-to-market combines enterprise field sales through three regional representatives covering North/Southeast, East Central, and Southwest Florida, with inside sales engineering support for product selection and sizing. The company holds awarded vendor status under the Florida Sheriffs Association's Cooperative Purchasing Program (in partnership with the Florida Association of Counties), enabling government agencies to procure equipment through existing contracts without separate bidding. Pricing is quote-based given the custom configuration of equipment, and revenue is not publicly disclosed. Ownership appears founder-led, with Tom Evans serving as President alongside COO Dennis Szczepanek, P.E., CFO Marlene Schwarz, and VP Executive Advisor Jennie Evans, with approximately 17 listed personnel across sales, accounting, administration, engineering, project management, field service, and shop operations.
