Not just at trade shows or in proposal decks, but on job sites, in the mud, with the crews doing the actual work. That choice has shaped everything about how this product performs in the field and how this company has grown.

Why Founder Led Still Matters
In an industry full of large manufacturers pushing product through distribution channels and regional representatives who have never touched a pipe, founder led means something specific. It means the person who built this product is still answering hard questions from engineers, walking installs with contractors, and taking feedback from the field back into how the Poo Pit continues to evolve.

That feedback loop does not exist when leadership operates at a distance. It only works when the people closest to the product are also the people closest to the work.

When Daryl drove to Lockwood, Montana to walk a 74 unit install with the crew at Askin Construction, that was not a public relations move. It was the job. Making sure the product performs. Making sure the crew has what they need. Making sure that when those families receive reliable sewer service, it is built correctly.

Field Tested Means More Than a Spec Sheet
The Poo Pit was not designed by engineers who have never run a crew. It was built out of firsthand frustration with the limitations of precast concrete, including the weight, confined space entry requirements, safety liability, and inefficiency that contractors have managed for generations because no better option was available.

Confined space entry is not just an inconvenience, it is one of the most serious and regulated hazards in construction. OSHA confined space standards exist because the risks are real. Toxic atmospheres, engulfment, and restricted rescue access have cost workers their lives. Every concrete manhole install that requires entry introduces a liability that the Poo Pit eliminates entirely.

Field tested means the product has been proven in real conditions, on real job sites, with real crews operating under real timelines. It has been installed across more than 16 states, including new residential developments, municipal replacement projects, and a wide range of applications in between. Each install contributes to a growing body of knowledge that improves the next one.

Contractor Approved Is the Only Approval That Counts
Engineers can specify a product. Municipalities can approve it. But if the crew on the ground does not trust it, does not understand it, or cannot install it efficiently, none of that matters. Contractor approval is earned in the field, not on paper.

Contractors who have worked with the Poo Pit do not go back. The installation speed, weight advantage, and elimination of confined space entry are not marketing claims. They are operational realities that impact crew hours, job efficiency, and project margin.

That is what founder led, field tested, contractor approved actually means. Not a tagline, but a proven track record.
