Services
Bruce started in the construction industry in property rehabilitation + redevelopment and over the years has gravitated towards the service-based specialization of excavation and sewers. Professionally, he has a passion for helping people and representing values of integrity, loyalty, and hard work in his business.
The break in the sewer pipe was located under the foundation of the house and the connection to the septic tank was sagging. Bruce arrived with a large crew who were friendly and focused. They hung plastic sheeting, set protection board, and deployed jack hammers and excavators within minutes. They broke through the basement floor and drain flies billowed out like smoke.

I was in a pinch at getting some electrical trenching done. I called and talked with Alysia - she was awesome and jumped to the task! The team was very professional, kind, and courteous and got the job done on time. I was impresses. The only issue I had, and is why not 5 stars, is that we have a Daffodil garden along the side of the driveway. The first day the team basically trampled this garden which broke our hearts. We then put up a barrier to prevent them doing this the second day - but they could see the 3 inch shoots coming up! Other than that, I highly recommend this company to anyone

Dan has always been a tremendous help on all of our sewer line repairs, but really showed his commitment to doing what’s best for the customer when he recently saved us $20k on a massive sewer line job by getting creative with city and finding a more cost effective solution. He did not have to do that, but he went above and beyond, and that’s why we will always use Axiom.

Dan came out to take a look at our storm water drainage from our gutters. We have had issues for years with a leak getting into the basement during high intensity, heavy rains. We have had other contractors come out and look, and they didn't seem to listen to our points on what was happening, and always immediately recommended the most expensive option.
Dan came out and scoped the line, and within an hour realized the pipe to the main sewer were completely broken - storm water was dumping into the ground, right along the foundation where the leaks always occurred. He came back the next day and

We had to connect to the city sewer this year when our 70-year old septic system finally failed. Due to slope and distance from the sewer line, it was necessary to either install pumps in the back yard or reverse the drains to the front of the house, which entailed jackhammering across a finished daylight basement.
After considering several proposals, we opted to reverse the drains. Axiom presented us with the best price, and also the best plan, which would have the plumbing unavailable for only a couple of hours during the changeover to the new drains (it turned out to be under an hour!). They

Called Axiom after encountering a drain problem at my house, which has a main sewer line repair history. Axiom showed up on-site, checked everything out, and narrowed the issue down to a single branch drain/vent. Excellent communication and no upselling. Highly recommended.

We had Axiom do a sewer connect (previously was on septic) and it went well. They encountered a couple hiccups doing the job but managed it very well (no estimate change) and were very communicative prior to and during the job. Also I got quotes for about 4 excavators and Axiom was the best price. I wouldn't hesitate to use them again.

I recently bought a house and, during the inspection, the sewer line failed because of tree roots. I knew after I moved in that replacing the sewer line was a top priority. I got bids from eight companies, and Axiom was the lowest. That's not why I went with them, though. One company told me the entire water line would need to be replaced from the house to the street for an additional $2,500. Axiom told me if I paid to have the utilities located by a private locator (it cost $140 and was easy to set up), if they hit the water line, they'd fix it for free. I did that, and they didn&apos

Responded to my request in a very short time. Responded to say they did not provide the service I needed. Provided information about another service who could. Not sure what Axiom actually does, but very much appreciate the quick and helpful response. Communication is tops. I recommend them, whatever they do.

They are pleasant and fast. But they will not inform you of what destruction their equipment will do to the other elements of your property. Included are the results of machinery going over a brick patio. One photo is the result of them saying they will take care of it. I would suggest not using them.

Avoid this contractor at all costs. They bid low but it shows when it comes to their professionalism and integrity. After contractor hit gas line (where they weren't supposed to be using mechanical excavation methods), the field workers admitted to hitting it. The next day the crew changed their story and the office staff became very rude. One month after the sewer repair I received a change order for the additional work. DO NOT HIRE. My advice to anyone looking to repair their sewer - Find a contractor accredited by the Better Business Bureau.

Bruce stuck with me for almost two years while the city engineers refused to allow our sewer line replacement to go forward. I was worried that the work would damage the new street and sidewalk installed during that time. The axiom crew was on time, friendly and efficient, communication was good throughout, and they didn’t damage the new street at all. A very clean operation, done in one day, and he honored his original quote!

This team has great customer service, is honest and up front before they begin the work. They got in and out in two days and made sure to keep all of their work as consolidated as possible. They had to cut a hole in my driveway and I could barely tell they were ever there after leaving. I had some unexpected sewer work come up after buying my first home and their team was very mindful of the stress and money situation after buying a new house. Would definitely recommend.

Where to begin?
We close today, we called Axiom on Wednesday three weeks ago, they scheduled us for the following Monday. They got here and found that our sewer was a nonconforming sewer line that would need to be replaced. At every step of this project, someone at Axiom explained what they were looking for, why, and what it meant. We were also given the tools to contact the city to verify this was an issue and not Axiom upselling.
Needless to say, this freaked us out, we wanted to close today and the issues with our sewer only delayed the work by a week, that was for permits. What I appreciated

I am shocked to see positive reviews of this company on here. We had a very weird experience with Rob today. He came to bid a job and initially started off telling us way too much personal information about his family. He was saying weird things. He then went on a 30 plus minute rant about how the houses in our area were built. He was very patronizing. He said it would be a spot job "very easy, no problem. Can be done in a day" based on video footage of a sewer scope and then after wasting two hours talking to us he started drumming up all these reasons it was going to be "very"

Axiom and their crew recently installed a new sewer pipe from our house to the city hookup prior to us selling the house. Their work ethic was apparent from the beginning to end, the pricing was best bid we received, and Rob's care and willingness to think outside the box when their boring machine ran into rocks making it look like the project would be much harder than originally imagined. In the end, they completed the project pretty much on time, for the price agreed upon, and with minimal disruption to our landscape. Axiom should be your first call for excavation, trenching, sewer repair

Fantastic Company! Bruce and his team came out to first perform an inspection and sewer scope, upon inspection they found issues no other company had identified earlier in my 190ft sewer line, 3 other companies prior missed the issues. Bruce provided a quote and stuck with me as a partner for 4 months, waiting until I was ready to perform the work. The Axiom crew came out and replaced our sewer line in record time. They were professional, very good price and very flexible working on our schedule. I highly recommend the Axiom team for your next project, big or small.

Tree roots grew into our sewer pipe and caused some flooding into my house. After completing the inside project, it was time to finish by fixing the pipe. We got 3 quotes and chose the most reasonable one. But above even that, we were very impressed by Rob's straight forward get it done attitude!! No bells and whistles, just honesty, integrity, and follow through! Project was completed today and we are so impressed with the result and their diligence. It was a bit more complicated than originally thought so they had to return the next day with shoring to stabilize the mud/dirt. They also had

We recently sold our home in SE Portland. The title report came back with an exception - the City of Portland had a "right to lien" because we still had a cesspool. This would have prevented the sale, had we not been able quickly connect to the municipal sewer.
Bruce was able to handle everything for us -- the permits, connection, and decommissioning of the old cesspool. They were also able to protect the roots of two giant fir trees that were in the path of the sewer trench. He's very easy to work with, affordable, and quick!
Axiom will be my first call if I ever need excavation
