## The honest read

JP Excavation describes itself as a small excavation business with a hardscape background since 2014 and commercial excavation experience since 2018. It says it has been in business 12 years and offers free estimates.

A customer who hired Josh to install a new septic tank said he was easy to get in touch with, patiently answered questions and did the site cleanup well. Josh removed one customer's pool and filled it in, and that customer said he started earlier than scheduled and finished ahead of schedule.

A customer said Josh dug a trench in their yard and created a pad for an ADU. A customer whose driveway Josh fixed said they would hire him back for future projects.

**Strengths:**
- Septic tank install — a customer praised communication and the site cleanup
- Early start — a pool removal began earlier than scheduled
- ADU pad work — a customer said Josh dug a trench and created a pad
