# Curran Corp.

**Trade:** Landscaping · **Phone:** (617) 593-2816 · **Languages:** English, Spanish

**Rating: 3.3/5** (medium confidence) — from 16 reviews across 6 sources. A 0–5 star rating built from what customers and the public say (every review and mention weighted by where it was posted, how old, how detailed and how credible it is, shrunk toward a 3.5★ baseline when evidence is thin) plus what the record shows (Reddit recommendations or warnings, a registry-verified licence, how recently they were reviewed, customer work photos, BBB grade, negative news, a revoked licence). Positive record counts only as far as the reviews have earned it; penalties count in full. Confidence describes how much weighted evidence stands behind the number, never the number itself: low when fewer than about five normal reviews' worth of weight (or mentions only) support it, medium up to about twenty, high beyond that across at least two sources. An operator flag for a suspicious review pattern caps a rating at 3.5★ and marks it low.
100% of sentiment-scored reviews read net-positive. Last 6 months: 0 reviews, 0 negative.

## The honest read

Curran Corp. is a landscape and excavation contractor working out of 44 Osprey Lane in Hanover, on the South Shore. The Better Business Bureau file describes it as a residential and commercial landscape construction business owned by Michael Curran with four employees, opened for a business that started in January 2018 and incorporated the following January.

Its Massachusetts Home Improvement Contractor registration, number 219598, is verified active in the state registry under the holder name Curran Corp, so the credential belongs to this company rather than a similarly named one.

The written record is consistent and hands-on. Customers between 2018 and 2022 describe field and lot clearing, storm cleanup with downed trees removed, new lawn installation, tree planting, hardscaping and a stone wall, and one homeowner in a 2020 review recounted a large sink hole in the back yard that the owner assessed in person and priced in an itemised quote. Several reviewers name Mike directly and mention crews leaving the site clean, including one who said the neighbours whose driveway the crew had to cross were happy too.

What to weigh: the reviews are strong but they stop. The newest written account on file is from April 2022, so the five-star headline rests on work done several years ago rather than on current jobs. The Angi and HomeAdvisor listings are byte-identical mirrors of one another, so the 5.0-from-15 figure appears twice but represents one set of reviews, not thirty.

Worth asking about before you book: current lead times and crew size, since the company reported four employees, and whether the pricing approach reviewers praised in 2020 — an itemised quote per job — still applies.

A Nextdoor neighbour in Buzzards Bay named a Curran landscaping business in April 2026 when a Sandwich resident asked for cobblestone edging; the comment gave no address or phone, so treat it as a name-drop rather than confirmation that this Hanover company covers the Upper Cape.

**Strengths:**
- Site clearing — reviewers describe fields, brush and downed trees cleared
- Itemised quoting — a 2020 customer cites a per-job written quote
- Stone walls and hardscape — a 2021 job came in under budget
- Clean job sites — crews praised for leaving lawns undamaged
- Verified HIC registration — active in the state registry under this name

**Concerns:**
- Dated reviews — the newest written account on file is April 2022
- Mirrored listings — Angi and HomeAdvisor publish one review set twice
- Small crew — the BBB file reports four employees

**Where sources disagree:**
- The Angi and HomeAdvisor profiles are byte-identical mirrors of one another (same About text, same 5.0-from-15 headline, same fifteen entries in the same order), so their counts must not be added together.
- Both mirrored star bars read 100% five-star while one of the rendered reviews on the same page is scored 4.5, so the distribution graphic is rounded rather than exact.
- The BBB profile shows an A+ grade on a business it states is NOT BBB accredited; the grade and accreditation are separate things.
- The BBB file gives 8 years in business while the Angi/HomeAdvisor listing claims 9 years of experience, both self-reported and against a start date of January 2018.
- The Nextdoor comment names 'Curran Landscaping' while this row is Curran Corp. of Hanover, and the comment carries no address, phone or website; the two have not been tied together by any hard identifier, and there is a separately registered Curran Landscaping Corp in Glen Cove, New York.
