## The honest read

A May 2026 customer reports that sections of a $35,000 driveway-road project washed away after the first rainfall and says M&M Excavating did not follow through on its promises. The customer attributes the washout to material that was not properly set. That is the specific complaint behind their one-star Google review.

A December 2025 Google reviewer describes a different experience: the company was responsive, stayed with its estimate, kept the customer informed, and completed excavation work the customer praised. Google averages the two ratings at 3 stars.

M&M Excavating LLC is based in Sheffield. The company describes itself as family-owned and says it serves Litchfield, Berkshire, and Columbia counties. Its Better Business Bureau grade is A+.

**Strengths:**
- Estimate adherence — a December 2025 reviewer says the company held its estimate
- Customer communication — a December 2025 reviewer praises responsiveness and updates

**Concerns:**
- Driveway washouts — a May 2026 customer reports damage after the first rainfall
- Unfulfilled promises — the May 2026 driveway customer says follow-through fell short

## Recent reviews

- **1/5 · Google Reviews · Daniel Hutnick · 2026-05-19**: Major disappointment. They never properly set material they put down on our driveway road. Several areas of the driveway washed away after the firat rainfall. They did not follow through with their promises. It was a waste of $35K. Save time and money with another company.
- **5/5 · Google Reviews · Brooke Loening · 2025-12-11**: We had an excellent experience with M&M excavating. They were responsive, held to their estimate, kept us informed every step of the way, and did an excellent job. I would highly recommend them for any excavating work!
