About us
Why J.C. Pillion Contracting Co.
J.C. Pillion Contracting Co. is rooted in Hackettstown, NJ — and we have been solving the toughest septic, excavation, and construction challenges in the area since 1966. We understand local soil conditions, county permit requirements, and what New Jersey homeowners actually need from a contractor.
Our commitment is simple: every project gets the same meticulous attention, transparent communication, and craftsmanship we would want on our own property. We do not cut corners, we do not disappear after the job is won, and we do not send crews who do not know what they are doing.
When you choose JC Pillion Contracting, you are not hiring a vendor — you are gaining a partner who is invested in getting your project right.
Our Best Services
Enhance Your Property With Expert Services

Septic System Installation
From site evaluation and permit coordination to full excavation and final inspection, we install residential and commercial septic systems built to New Jersey code and engineered to last for decades.

Septic System Replacement
Aging system failing? We assess the full picture, decommission the old system properly, and install a modern replacement with minimal disruption to your property.

Storm Drain and Drywell Installation
Proper drainage protects your foundation, your landscaping, and your neighbors. We design and install storm drain and drywell systems that manage water runoff effectively and compliantly.

Excavation and Grading
Precise excavation and land grading is the foundation of every successful construction or septic project. We handle site prep from initial cut to finished grade with the equipment and expertise to do it right.

Foundation Excavation
Building a new home or addition? Our foundation excavation services provide the accurate, stable cut your structure demands — on schedule and within spec.

Construction
Beyond septic and excavation, our team takes on construction work that complements our core services — site development, retaining structures, and related groundwork for residential and commercial clients across New Jersey.
