OK thanks - that helps a lot.
Just based off what's been posted, it doesn't seem like a big enough hole - or that it's close enough - to actually kill your tree.
I would even go as far as saying it's a bit surprising your leaf drop is associated with the work they did.
Now that's just my take on it and I'm not there in person so I may not have the full picture.
Lastly, given the size and maturity of your tree.....more than likely it will recover IF the leaf drop was caused by the digging.
I suppose you could consult with a local arborist and/or tree company who is knowledgeable enough to render an opinion.
And as posted, documenting and informing the contractor who did the work would be advisable, just in case.
Good luck!
