# Trades Enterprises **Trade:** Demolition & Excavation · **Address:** 443 MA-6A Ste 262, East Sandwich, MA 02537 · **Phone:** (508) 776-8751 · **Website:** https://www.tradesenterprises.com/ · **Languages:** English **Rating: 3.8/5** (low confidence) — from 5 reviews across 3 sources. 100% of sentiment-scored reviews read net-positive. Last 6 months: 0 reviews, 0 negative. ## The honest read Trades Enterprises, based in East Sandwich, handles the underground and heavy-site work that has to happen before a Cape Cod property can be built or fixed — septic systems, foundations, drainage, and grading. It describes itself as veteran-owned and operated, and lists demolition, earthwork, trenching, retaining walls, marine construction, and waterline/sewer work in its lineup, alongside landscaping and seasonal dock services. Its five Google reviews, all five stars, keep returning to the same theme: solving drainage and site problems other contractors wouldn't take on. One homeowner building on a 3-acre parcel describes the crew designing a dry well and groundwater recharge system plus a complicated stormwater layout after "other contractors came over and punted when they saw how complex it was" — delivered, the review says, with no hidden charges over a months-long build. Another hired the company for a full septic system, foundation work, and drainage engineering during a home addition in Falmouth. A third has been a repeat customer for five years, using the crew for two stone driveway installations, several land-leveling and grading jobs, and a new septic system design. The reviews consistently name the same point of contact, John, and describe the work in specific, technical terms rather than generic praise — one homeowner credits him with regrading a muddy yard and adding substrate to turn it into a usable, erosion-resistant landscape. Another says they've called on him for multiple jobs at a home and farm and describes him as on time and professional. The written record here is five reviews, all from 2025 — enough to show a real, repeat-hiring pattern on complex site work, but still a small sample. For a Cape Cod homeowner facing a septic, drainage, or grading job that's stumped someone else, the through-line in what customers have written is a crew that gets named specifically, not generically praised, for figuring out the technical part. **Strengths:** - Complex drainage jobs — handled a 3-acre stormwater system other contractors declined - Repeat customers — hired again across five years of site work - Named by name — reviewers credit the same point of contact directly - Veteran-owned business — self-described on its website ## Claims & citations Every claim below is backed by real evidence rows — uncited claims are dropped in code before publication. - Cape Cod, MA excavation and site-work contractor performing demolition, earthwork, trenching, retaining walls, landscaping, marine construction, and septic/sewer waterline work _(confidence: high)_ - [Official Website](https://www.tradesenterprises.com) — “A Cape Cod, MA excavation and site-work contractor offering demolition, earthwork, trenching, retaining walls, landscaping, marine/dock cons…” - Self-reports as veteran-owned and operated _(confidence: high)_ - [Official Website](https://www.tradesenterprises.com) — “Stated ownership (self-reported): Veteran-owned” - Installed a new septic system, foundation, and drainage engineering for a whole-property home addition in Falmouth _(confidence: high)_ - [Google Reviews](https://www.google.com/maps/reviews/data=!4m8!14m7!1m6!2m5!1sCi9DQUlRQUNvZENodHljRjlvT21obU5qVlNRbFpDUm5oak5VdEphekJUTXpWM1NuYxAB!2m1!1s0x0:0xcde91f327bcaacbe!3m1!1s2@1:CAIQACodChtycF9oOmhmNjVSQlZCRnhjNUtJazBTMzV3Snc%7C%7C?hl=en) — “5★ We worked with John and his team to complete a substantial addition to our home in Falmouth. .
