## The honest read

A 2024 Google customer said John completed a second project for them, carefully diagnosed the issue and fixed it with a targeted solution. That 2024 customer said the work was done quickly, neatly and at a fair price, and that the successive water issues they had before had not come back in the few months since.

In a 2023 r/Connecticut post, a commenter wrote that their family had used J.P. Bachand Contracting and that he had just installed a sump pump and moisture barrier in their basement. An nbcconnecticut.com page names John Bachand as the company's owner.

The company says it has been in business 43 years and lists a service area of Newington, West Hartford, Hartford, Wethersfield, Rocky Hill, Berlin, New Britain and Farmington. On Google it holds a 5-star rating from 9 ratings.

Connecticut lists its home improvement contractor registration, HIC.0511842, as active, held by J P Bachand Contracting.

**Strengths:**
- Careful diagnosis — a 2024 customer said John diagnosed the issue carefully
- Sump pump install — a 2023 Reddit commenter's family had one put in
