Our Founders

Dave and Carolyn Conaway, the founders of DNC Hydraulic, exemplify the American Dream through their hard work, perseverance, and entrepreneurial spirit. Beginning their journey in 1988 with a small investment of $25,000, the couple grew their business from a modest start to a leading provider of hydraulic repair services. With Dave’s expertise in hydraulic systems and Carolyn’s sharp business acumen, DNC Hydraulic quickly gained a reputation for quality and reliability.

What began as a small, home-based operation in their garage eventually expanded into a full-scale business, employing numerous people and serving customers across various industries. Despite the challenges they faced—like economic downturns and fierce competition—the Conaways remained committed to their vision, ultimately building a thriving business that reflects their dedication and shared values. Their story is a testament to what can be achieved with determination, skill, and a relentless pursuit of excellence.
