Brunelle Contracting Co

Jan 2020

This could turn into a 5 star review but I will leave it at 4 for now because I am only on day into the actual work being done. I had a sewage back up in my basement and needed to get the old orangeberg pipe removed and a new sewer line replaced on my property. I knew Brunelle had done other work on my street in the last year so I reached out to them. John responded within one hour even less then that and was at my house looking over the job. John gave me a fair price and within days (after calling dig safe) the job began. John and his team finished the pipe laying and excavating in one day. I seen the entire job get done and even had a neighbor watch for me as well. I appreciate how quickly John Brunelle got this job on my property done. I will give this a 5 star rating if some other things happens or I will drop it to a 3. My yard needs to be resodded and John said he would take care of it, it is Jan. now so I don't expect the resod until spring but also THIS IS NOT JOHN BRUNELLE Fault. The town had John tie in the new pipe on my property to their existing orangeberg pipe in the street instead of replacing it all with new pipe. This is a huge concern to me because orangeberg pipe has an expectancy of 50 years so the towns pipe is now at 55 years and potentially could cause another back up for me. I truly believe the town of Mansfield should have had Brunelle run brand new pipe onto the street as well but I understand that John Brunelle cannot do that unless the town allows him to and also pays him to do it. This is the biggest concern on this particular job I have, it was only like 15 more feet of new pipe that needed to be laid. I cannot understand why the town would not just allow it to be done right, tying in new pipe to 55 year old orangeberg pipe is a recipe for disaster but that is the decision the town of Mansfield made. Brunelle Cotracting did all for me that they could under the circumstances at hand so once my yard is resodded that will complete their end of the bargain and I will recommend to anyone who asks.
