## The honest read

At Excavation Plus II, a recent customer says a father and son team took on a sinkhole situation without hesitation. The company describes itself on its website as a family-owned business serving Western Connecticut, and its stated service area includes Oxford, Southbury, Middlebury, Waterbury and Danbury.

A 2025 customer said Phil solved a major drainage problem at a reasonable price and helped with the permit process. A 2024 customer said they hired the company for foundation drainage at their home and that it came up with custom solutions on the fly. A 2025 customer said Phil and his son worked on a shared neighborhood road project and that Phil explained the options clearly.

A 2024 customer said Phil and his son planted 30 trees and helped move extra dirt and mulch to their son's house. A 2023 customer said they showed up on time and completed the work on schedule despite inclement weather and freezing cold.

Connecticut lists its home improvement contractor registration, HIC.0604713, as active, held by Excavation Plus II.
