Charleston native Lance Blalock started Energen Carolina in 1976 not far from where our office is today. After graduating from Clemson University he started compounding chemicals in his own garage and quickly realized that this niche market had great potential. His determination and hard work have resulted in 40 years of steady growth. We are lucky enough to do business with some of his original customers to this day. Thanks to his vast knowledge of the industry, professionalism and reliability we are now recognized as the lowcountry’s leading distributor of industrial equipment and pressure washing systems. Lance has since stepped down as the owner of the company, but plays a major role in perpetuating our vision of success.

What They Are Saying
"You and the customer service at your company have been very, very responsive and kind, and I am pleased. More companies should behave this way, the world would be a better place."
Had my own business for some time, used other companies to supply me before finding Energen. They became my go to company, wouldn't use anyone else.
"Nice people and my chemicals were delivered in timely fashion."
“Thank you so much. You guys were early with my last delivery as well. So glad that I found a good company to work with. “
“Never had a bad experience here. The lady [up front] knows her stuff. Always super helpful.”
“Great service! Always fast and friendly with my deliveries. Great communication lines with the front office staff. Highly recommend for all your pressure washing needs.”
“We have a very busy commercial truck dealership, and having a downed pressure washer is not helpful. They showed for their scheduled appointment on time and the technician was very courteous and professional. He had the equipment working properly within a few hours and found that the previous repair that had been done left us with the wrong vacuum switch. We have an old pressure washer, so the part wasn't on his truck- he was able to get us up and running for the day with the old switch. They were able to get the part in by the next day, and he came out, installed that day. We appreciated the prompt professional service.”
“Thank you for all you do for our business!"
“We couldn't get though one single day without you guys!! We appreciate the service you provide and the excellent and friendly way you do it!!!"
An absolute necessity for any wash pro. Great staff. The service manager Curtis is second to none. It's no small feat finding honesty, expertise & professionalism at a retail/repair shop of any kind. Thanks Energen of the Carolinas! You guys rock!
