A 2021 bostonrealestatetimes.com article lists Kent Brothers Excavating (Southampton, MA) alongside Western Builders (Granby, MA) and Chandler Architectural Products, Inc. (W. Springfield, MA). A 2019 businesswest.com article includes Kent Brothers Excavating of Southampton on a list with Western Builders of Granby and Collins Electric of Chicopee. A recent customer says the family had a dangerously steep slope on the side of their driveway graded to a gradual slope, and that Kent Brothers took the time to evenly transition the new slope into the existing yard. That customer says the driveway is now safe and ready to be seeded, and describes the pricing as fair and honest. A recent one-star reviewer says they gave a competitive quote to the reviewer's general contractor and then marked items up upon completion. That reviewer says they did not pull stumps that were part of the job and billed to come back when aspects of the work were sub par, and calls the owner arrogant and defensive the one time they spoke. In a 2016 review, a customer said the Kent Brothers had just completed excavation at the home to install a water line and were on time.

Best in the business in western MA. Easy to communicate with, fair and honest pricing, and takes pride in their work. My family had a dangerously steep slope on the side of our driveway graded to a gradual slope. Kent brothers took the time to evenly transition the new slope into our existing yard - turning a sore spot into a highlight. Now our driveway is safe and ready to be seeded.
Would not recommend these guys. They provided a competitive quote to my GC only to mark items up upon completion. Did not pull stumps that were part of the job and when aspects of the work were sub par, they billed to come back. The owner was arrogant and defensive the one time I spoke to him regarding the above.

Great family owned businesses, 1st class operation.
The Kent Brothers just completed excavation at my home at 44 Gilbert Rd to install my water line. They were on time, professional, respectful and METICULOUS. We could not be more satisfied with their work. Thank you Mike! Cheryl Kowalski
