## The honest read

JDL Excavation does excavation and site work, and a wmur.com story names Josh Lennon of JDL Excavation.

A 2024 HomeAdvisor customer said Josh's knowledge of perimeter systems was crucial in solving a basement water problem, and recommended JDL Excavation for any site work. That 2024 customer also said Josh followed up on every aspect of the project.

A 2023 HomeAdvisor customer said it took Josh only 4 hours to generate an estimate and that, once the price was accepted the next morning, he was on site that same afternoon. That 2023 customer wrote that it was "just a trench with pvc pipe" and called the price fair.

A 2023 HomeAdvisor reviewer said he showed up when he said he was going to and called his price very fair.

**Strengths:**
- Quick estimate — a 2023 customer said the estimate took only 4 hours
- Basement water fix — a 2024 customer credited Josh's perimeter-system knowledge
- Shows up as promised — a 2023 reviewer said he came when he said
