Site diluted spin-1/2 Ising and spin-1 Blume Capel (BC) models in the presence of transverse field interactions are examined by introducing an effective-field approximation that takes into account the multi-site correlations in the cluster of a considered lattice with an improved configurational averaging technique. The critical concentration below which the transition temperature reduces to zero is determined for both models, and the estimated values are compared with those obtained by the other methods in the literature. It is found that diluting the lattice sites by non magnetic atoms may cause some drastic changes on some of the characteristic features of the model. Particular attention has been paid on the global phase diagrams of a spin-1 BC model, and it has also been shown that the conditions for the occurrence of a second order reentrance in the system is rather complicated, since the existence or extinction of reentrance is rather sensitive to the competing effects between D/J, \Omega/J and c.
