The tommy is the original slicing technology, patented for its engineered solution resulting in fast, quality installation. Others, like the "silt fence plow", attempt to copy the tommy results, but fall short in their endeavors. Contractors want to know the difference between the tommy silt fence machine and silt fence plows. See the differences in action.
The tommy has been proven effective in every soil type, even the most difficult such as saturated soils, rocky soils, and hard, baked compacted clay. The tommy operates in the most difficult weather and terrain conditions, such as high winds and steep slopes. I've had the tommy for five years now, and never had any problems on my sites, even with the stringent North Carolina regs.
We run a couple of different companies, but with the tommy I can send out a relatively inexperienced crew and still get great looking fence. It gives us a very professional look with tight, non-sagging fence.

Services
Tom Carpenter founded Devon Distributing Corporation in 1996.
As an ESC contractor, Devon Distributing Corporation installs approximately 300,000 linear feet of silt fence per year, a level of experience that gave Tom first hand knowledge of the difficulties of trench silt fencing.
That's why in 1996, he imagined, developed and manufactured the first tommy.
As a contractor and manufacturer, Devon Distributing Corporation has unlimited experience with the tommy in all soil and weather conditions, and landscape challenges.

Contractors want to know the difference between the tommy silt fence machine and silt fence plows.
The tommy is a machine because it is engineered to achieve end goals of efficiency and quality installation in all conditions - slopes, sharp turns, and tight spaces.
Simply put, the tommy silt fence machine scientifically disrupts the soil into a pliable medium that will secure the silt fence fabric in the slice without an extra man holding it, in as with a silt fence plow.
A secure fabric installation prevents significant downtimes, lowers operating costs, and increases the hourly efficiency of your crews!

The tommy patented 21st century technology installs silt fence faster and easier than trenching.
Just like GPS and laser screening technology, you are investing in the results (not the equipment).
This prevents the fabric from being pulled out of the slice when turning or traversing a water way.
This is critical because other slicing methods horizontally compact the interior of the slice outward, creating a soil condition that allows the fabric to easily slide out, thus causing significantly more labor and machine downtime to reinstall the fabric.

The tommy wheel is guaranteed for the life of your machine to the original buyer, and at a maximum of one per year - although most wheels last many years due to the fact that they are 2 inches above the operating depth of the machine and the only stress on a wheel is the moving silt fence fabric.
Why a guarantee?
The wheel has never been a problem (so a warranty wasn't necessary) and is not now, but false insinuations from others have caused us to address these comments with a full year's guarantee for a single wheel.

The tommy has been proven effective in every soil type, even the most difficult such as saturated soils, rocky soils, and hard, baked compacted clay.
The tommy operates in the most difficult weather and terrain conditions, such as high winds and steep slopes.
With the tommy you can install silt fence, regardless of the weather or soil conditions, and move onto the next job--knowing the work has been done professionally and will meet all ASTM standards.
Wet conditions make trenching nearly impossible, costing you work days and income, that are gone forever.
