I was cut off by one of their drivers while turning into the toll booths on i95. Their drivers lack the professionalism every truck driver needs to operate safely on these roads. Unbelievably I tried to call three times to complain with absolutely no one picking up to answer. Sure their trucks look nice but if you're looking for an excavation contractor, don't bother giving Les Wilson your time of day.

Les Wilson and sons is the only excavating company I would’ve hired for getting me through the excavating work I needed for a small subdivision in old Orchard Beach. They handled the extraneous requirements mandated by the town with grace and professionalism. The finished product was beyond expectation. I probably could have found a company that was cheaper, but the old saying is true: you get what you pay for. I paid for expertise, quality, and professionalism and that is why with Les Wilson and sons I got the best value. I highly recommend!

For the second time in a few weeks Les Wilson construction has managed to disrupt our Spectrum service at a project in Varney Mil Estates in Windham ME. No cable or internet.
I can't move my mailbox without jumping through the proper DigSafe hoops they however can't seem to remember where the wires are.
No apology. No knock on the door to take responsibility.
We work remote office from home and the disruption has work consequences.

In late 2015 Les Wilson & Sons worked with Eco-Clean Sewer & Drain Specialist to remove a section of collapsed Orangeberg sewer lateral from approximately my property line/the sidewalk, to the sewer main in the middle of the street. Les Wilson & Sons provided the trench work.
I was very impressed. Work began around 7:45AM and ended about 11 hours later. I watched most of it, and I don't think any of them even took a lunch break. They were very relaxed about me observing their work, which I found fascinating. Despite the use of heavy equipment, there was a fair amount of manual
