## The honest read

H&R Paving and Excavation says on its website that it takes commercial and residential projects and specializes in septic installation, repair and pumping, earth work and paving.

A 2025 customer wrote that Bill and his team replaced one septic system, rerouted one of the two old systems to the new one, and replaced three walkways. That 2025 customer's one wish was that the job could have started a bit sooner. A 2024 customer said they pumped out a septic system as North Kingstown required and said they would notify the town the job was done. In a 2026 review, a customer said DJ pumped out their pump chamber and referred them to Fernco.

A 2021 customer said Bill and his crew got the system installed and connected in a couple of days, and that Bill worked with DEM and a plumber so everything would be done up to code. That 2021 customer said DEM and the inspections were the reason for higher expenses.

A 2022 customer described a driveway job and said they did not stop working from the moment they pulled up until the last sweep. In a 2024 review, a customer praised William's work on a wood-fired pizza oven and patio kitchen plan.

A 2024 customer reported trouble scheduling and a lack of communication, though the work was done well once it was scheduled. A 2018 customer said sod was torn up and lights were broken while plowing, about $300 in damage, and that he did not care when told.

**Strengths:**
- Septic system replacement — a 2025 customer said they replaced one septic system
- Inspection coordination — a 2021 customer said Bill worked with DEM and a plumber
- A driveway job — a 2022 customer said they worked until the last sweep

**Concerns:**
- Scheduling and communication — a 2024 customer reported trouble scheduling and lack of communication
- Plowing damage — a 2018 customer reported torn-up sod and broken lights
