Description of Work: We used John Young Contracting for three different jobs at our home (seeptic work, excavation work, and removal work), and we were very pleased every time. John was friendly, helpful, and professional, and made every effort to provide a good experience. He is an honest guy who does good work. We definitely plan to use his services in the future.

Description of Work: The pipe from the town water supply to our house was leaking and needed replacement. John dug the ditch and laid a new copper pipe to the street. They did a nice job leveling the soil once completed. There was a little bit of a scramble with our plumber. John was not proactive letting us know when he would be needed, and then the day before the work told me he was not needed because the town did not have a new meter to replace our old one. On the day of the work, we did need to get the plumber here after hours. In addition, John was a little lax about what time he said he would be here. When he realized I was annoyed, he did manage to get his brother to come before I had to leave. I received 4 estimates and he was tied with the lowest - the highest was $4400. His references in town were stellar so he was hired.

I am completely satisfied and pleased with John Young and his construction company. From the beginning he took the time to understand the job, as well as some details and problems which were unique to my house. When he submitted a bid, I was confident that he knew exactly what he was proposing, and there would be no surprises. In fact, there were no surprises. John worked with the town inspector and the septic engineer to resolve an unexpected clay layer which partially intruded into the leach field. They found a solution which achieved the engineering objectives at little or no additional cost -- the "standard, uncreative solution" would have cost substantially more. John worked with us to coordinate the installation, and kept our drains flowing throughout the process. John's equipment was right for the task. He used several different pieces, each for the most appropriate application. He was not constrained by lack of facilities. John's employees were curtious and friendly. All appropriate provisions were made to reduce incidental damage to the driveway. Inevitable disruption of adjacent areas was repaired as part of the job. We needed a tree to be removed (by our choice -- work which was not part of the engineering drawings), because removing it would be more difficult after the job was complete. John's company arranged for the tree removal for a very reasonable additional cost. Overall we remain pleased with the job, and have recommended John Young Contracting to others.
Description of Work: From engineering drawings and a site visit, submitted bid and subsequently constructed a new septic system consisting of a tank, pump chamber, and leach field. After construction, regrade and replant grass on the surface. Removed one large, diseased tree near the affected area. Removed and replaced a blue-stone walk.
