Lawrence-Lynch Corp.

Lawrence-Lynch Corp. is a Falmouth-based, family-owned heavy civil construction and asphalt paving contractor founded in 1972, running its own hot-mix asphalt plant and working primarily for government agencies, general contractors, and commercial developers on airport, roadway, bridge, marine, and utility infrastructure projects — its own site states it doesn't offer residential or homeowner-facing service. Its Massachusetts home improvement contractor registration is active and registry-verified, and it's pre-qualified with MassDOT and the state's Department of Conservation and Recreation. Public records show a long history of large, high-value contracts: a $10.6 million airport runway rebuild, a $15 million Cape Wind cable-burial project, and, more recently, a $7.6 million rebuild of Motta Field in Provincetown. These are municipal and state contract awards rather than customer endorsements, but they speak to the company's scale and the kind of work it typically does. The handful of written reviews on file are mostly about a different side of the business — buying materials or dropping off debris at the company's yard — and describe quick, friendly service; they don't speak directly to the quality of the company's paving or civil-construction work itself. There's also a serious historical safety incident worth knowing about: in 2009, OSHA fined the company more than $69,000 after a worker was buried up to his chest in an excavation accident in Kingston. That's now 17 years in the past, and nothing in the more recent record points to a repeat pattern, but it's a real event worth being aware of given the nature of this company's work. Because Lawrence-Lynch operates mainly as a public-works and commercial contractor rather than a residential one, a typical homeowner is unlikely to hire them directly — but the record here reflects a company with real scale and government-agency vetting, alongside one significant, dated safety incident.
