A 2023 Google reviewer, writing for the Aldrich Mansion, said a sea storm had wiped out 275 feet of the mansion's historic sea wall and left a 30-foot wide, 300-foot-long pile of sea debris on the property. That 2023 customer said Bill handled everything from permitting to finish work and that his team cleaned up the pile of debris. The 2023 reviewer also wrote that the work was scheduled around the venue's event timelines, the project finished on time with nothing extra added to the quoted pricing, and newfound buried drainage lines were marked and documented. A 2022 Google reviewer wrote, "Wouldn't trust them for nothing not honest people." A local news site, ricentral.com, has run a headline about the East Greenwich town council revisiting William J. Ross Incorporated. **Strengths:** - Sea wall project — a 2023 customer said it finished on time - Quoted price held — a 2023 customer said nothing extra was added **Concerns:** - Honesty complaint — a 2022 customer called them not honest people ## Claims & citations Every claim below is backed by real evidence rows — uncited claims are dropped in code before publication. - Says it has been in business for 34 years _(confidence: low)_ - [Official Website](http://williamjrossinc.com) — “Self-reported 34 years in business” - A 2023 customer said the company rebuilt a 275-foot storm-damaged sea wall, handling permitting through finish work, on time and at the quoted price _(confidence: medium)_ - [Google Reviews](https://www.google.com/maps/reviews/data=!4m8!14m7!1m6!2m5!1sChdDSUhNMG9nS0VJQ0FnSUNaZ04zMmdRRRAB!2m1!1s0x0:0xc977eca577be96b3!3m1!1s2@1:CIHM0ogKEICAgICZgN32gQE%7C%7C?hl=en) — “5★ Fantastic experience from start to finish!
