A distribution-box replacement ahead of a home closing is one of Quinn’s Excavation & Septic’s recent customer accounts. Writing in June 2026, a homeowner says their planned septic installer fell through with just a couple of weeks left before closing. Adam and Cristin assessed the situation and completed the replacement with time to spare. The customer praised their responsiveness and communication throughout the work. The company describes itself as a family-owned, woman-run excavation, septic, sewer, and water-line business serving Cape Cod and surrounding Massachusetts towns. Its stated area includes Mashpee, Dennis, Falmouth, Plymouth, Scituate, and Wareham. BBB places the business in Mashpee and names Adam Clough as the owner. Google reports a 5-star average from 16 ratings; BBB gives the business an A+ grade, although it is not BBB accredited. Septic installations and replacements recur in older customer accounts. In a March 2024 review, a Dennis Port homeowner described Adam and his crew installing a new system, praised the price and communication, and said Cristen responded quickly to questions. An October 2022 customer described a septic replacement around and under difficult landscaping, with explanations at each stage. In January 2022, another customer said a system that had failed inspection passed after Adam completed the work. They valued his realistic explanation of cost and timing during a stressful house sale. Customers also describe excavation and sewer work. A general contractor writing in April 2025 said Adam and his crew removed dirt from a sloped area behind a property, stayed on time and on budget, and coordinated the job carefully. A September 2024 reviewer praised a completed sewer hookup that included plumbing and landscaping. Another customer that month said the crew arrived the morning after a call for urgent septic pumping and worked quickly. The business’s stated history differs by source. Its website claims 50 years in business, while BBB records a January 2014 start. For customer scheduling, a July 2024 reviewer who had hired the company twice said the work was on time and on budget. A May 2023 reviewer praised Cristen’s office responsiveness and Jim’s work with an excavator.
“After returning to the Cape, he fulfilled a dream of becoming a local business owner when he and his wife opened Quinn’s Excavation & Septic Inc. in Mashpee in 2015.”
I can't say enough good things about Adam and Cristin. When the septic installer I had planned to use fell through at the last minute, I suddenly found myself in a stressful situation with a home closing just a couple of weeks away and a distribution box replacement that needed to be completed quickly. Adam and Cristin stepped in, assessed the situation, and got the job done with time to spare. They were incredibly responsive, knowledgeable, and easy to work with throughout the entire process. Their communication was excellent, and they inspired confidence from the very first conversation. What could have become a major obstacle to the sale turned into a smooth and successful project thanks to their expertise and professionalism. Adam and Cristin make a fantastic team, and I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone in need of septic work.
As a general contractor, I have been looking for a good Excavation company. I’m pleased to say that Quinn Excavation meets all the checkmarks., The project involved Removing about 750 yd.² yards of dirt from Sloped Backside of the Property , Adam and his crew were on time and on budget The attention to details and job coordination is impeccable, I’m looking forward to collaborate in the future
