Groundbreaking Drainage Technology

We are proud to be at the forefront of plumbing technology innovation. A patent-pending "DTrap" system, designed to revolutionize traditional plumbing drainage, is currently in development with engineering support from Purdue University. This revolutionary approach to drainage employs a low-profile design, dramatically reducing space requirements, enhancing aesthetics, and eliminating the obstructions associated with conventional P-traps. The "DTrap" system holds immense potential to significantly improve accessibility, particularly in meeting ADA clearance requirements.

Building Lasting Partnerships

Beyond our technical expertise, we prioritize building strong, lasting partnerships with our clients. We believe in open communication, transparency, and collaborative problem-solving throughout the project lifecycle. Our goal is to understand our clients' unique needs and create solutions that meet their long-term goals.
