Last 6 months: 3 reviews, 0 negative. ## The honest read Messina Foundations LLC calls itself a full service excavation, site work and foundation contractor with over 40 years of experience, equipped to take an undeveloped building lot to a complete foundation that is backfilled and graded, with drainage and concrete floors. Its website lists towns such as Roxbury, Woodbury, Watertown and Waterbury in its service area. A recent customer who hired Ron, the owner, twice said he excavated a site that was a mix of mushy organics and ledge, then poured the footings, walls and a 30x48 floor with radiant heating that came out flat and to budget. A two-car garage foundation came in slightly below the quote for a recent customer, who paid in three payments as milestones were met. For a 30X50 steel building, a recent customer wrote that Ron did the foundation, drainage, floor and final grading and kept the site clean and safe. A 2026 customer said Ron Messina prepared site work, drainage and foundation for their house in Bantam in 2020 and returned two years later to build the garage. A 2025 customer said Ron built a foundation and floor for a new two-car garage addition, and it came out exactly the way they had talked about. A 2025 customer hired the company for excavation, forming and construction of a new addition in Morris. A 2025 customer with a construction loan said they had agreed on disbursements after each stage, that he kept changing the agreement and delaying the job, and that they fired him and got another contractor. **Strengths:** - Footings to floor — a recent customer had footings, walls and a floor poured - Quote held — a recent garage foundation came in below the quote - Repeat hire — a 2026 customer brought Ron back for the garage **Concerns:** - Payment terms dispute — a 2025 customer said the agreement kept changing ## Claims & citations Every claim below is backed by real evidence rows — uncited claims are dropped in code before publication. - Describes itself as a full service excavation, site work and foundation contractor with over 40 years of experience _(confidence: medium)_ - [Official Website](https://www.messinafoundations.com) — “About (self-reported, verbatim): Messina Foundation L.L.C. has over 40 years experience.
