Pastore Excavation

Pastore Excavation is a Cape Cod excavation and site-work contractor based in Sandwich, led by Nick Pastore as president and owner. Its own site describes about 25 years in business, going back to 1999, and lists site development, Title V septic system installation, drainage, stump removal, beach nourishment and landscape materials supply for homeowners, businesses and towns. The Better Business Bureau gives the company an A+ grade, though it isn't BBB-accredited, and its BBB profile puts the company's start date at January 1992 — about 34 years, roughly a decade earlier than the company's own account. The one written review on file, from 2022, described a water line repaired within 24 hours of calling, with the crew leaving the site as good as they found it and calling the people and service top notch. Google shows a 5-star rating, though from just six ratings. Procore's contractor network separately lists the company as a claimed general contractor specializing in demolition and earthwork, with ten projects shown there. One thing worth confirming directly: a Construction Supervisor License search under the company's name surfaces a now-void license, but both the state registry and BuildZoom show that license belongs to someone named Arthur E. Pastore, not Nick Pastore — a different person than the company's current owner — and BuildZoom itself cautions the credential shouldn't be assumed to apply to this company without checking further. It's unclear whether that's an earlier relative's license or an unrelated namesake, so anyone who needs to verify current licensing should ask directly rather than rely on that record. For excavation, septic or site work on the Cape, the single detailed review and the company's long-standing local presence are reassuring, but the review count is thin and the licensing picture is worth clarifying before booking.
