⭐ WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING ABOUT BIG EARL

Real testimonials from real customers. Earl did not write any of these himself. Mostly.


★★★★★
"Earl installed a 10-footer in our sports bar. Business is up 40%. Men come from three counties over just to use our restroom. We had to start charging a cover on Saturdays. Earl didn't just install a trough -- he installed a TOURIST ATTRACTION."
-- Hank Morrisey, Owner, Hank's Wings & Things, Dayton OH
★★★★★
"I hired Earl for our office renovation. He was supposed to install standard restroom fixtures. He installed a trough. We didn't ask for a trough. But you know what? It's the most popular thing in the building. More popular than the break room. More popular than casual Fridays. The trough is our culture now."
-- Sandra Mitchum, Office Manager, Dayton Insurance Associates
★★★★☆
"Four stars because Earl showed up two hours late. Five stars because when he finally showed up, he brought donuts, told three great jokes, and installed the most beautiful trough I've ever seen in under 90 minutes. The man is an enigma wrapped in denim overalls."
-- Rick Delano, Homeowner, Centerville OH
★★★★★
"Earl installed a trough in my man cave. My wife said I had to choose: the trough or her. I chose the trough. I now live in the man cave full-time. Zero regrets. The trough keeps me warm. Not literally, but spiritually."
-- Dave "Trough Dave" Thompson, Springfield OH
★★★★★
"I'm Earl's third wife, Linda. The man has more troughs in our house than we have chairs. Our living room has a trough. Our GUEST ROOM has a trough. I love him, but sometimes I wonder if he married me or if he married a building with good plumbing access. Anyway, he does great work. 5 stars. He's standing behind me as I write this."
-- Linda Plumberton, Wife/Hostage, Dayton OH
★★★★★
"Dad installed a trough at my 8th birthday party. I'm 14 now and still in therapy. But honestly? Best birthday party anyone in my class ever had. Kevin Shoemaker STILL talks about it. Thanks Dad. I think."
-- Earlene Plumberton, Daughter, Dayton OH
★★★☆☆
"Earl showed up at our restaurant for 'a consultation we didn't schedule.' He spent 45 minutes measuring our restroom and left a proposal on the counter. We didn't hire him. He came back the next week. And the week after. We finally hired him just so he'd stop coming. The trough is admittedly incredible."
-- Tony Russo, Owner, Mama Russo's Italian Kitchen, Fairborn OH
★★★★★
"I am Earl's neighbor. The man mows his lawn at 7 AM on Saturdays. He waves at everyone. His truck leaks oil on the street. His dog got into my trash twice last month. But when my toilet broke at 2 AM, Earl was at my door in 10 minutes with a wrench and a smile. He didn't fix the toilet -- he installed a trough -- but the gesture was appreciated."
-- Glen Worthington, Neighbor, Dayton OH
