Dennis
Dennis runs bay to sound like Yarmouth, and the same split applies: sheltered north-side properties with established landscape, and exposed south-side lots where the surface has to handle sun, salt and bare feet. We pick material for which side of town you are on.
Cape Cod sits on glacial outwash — sand and gravel that drains well and carries load poorly. On every job here the base does the work: excavate to subgrade, build in lifts, compact each one. Skip that and the surface tells on you within two winters.

Before the first machine
Old King's Highway. The district takes in the north side above Route 6, including Dennis Village and East Dennis. It reviews exterior work visible from a public way — and stone walls and fences are named in it, not just houses. So a wall or a front walkway there needs a Certificate of Appropriateness, which means a public hearing before anything gets built. That filing is ours to handle; it is the part homeowners are usually surprised by, and it is the part that decides your start date.
Wetlands. If any part of the work falls within 100 feet of a wetland — or 200 feet of a perennial stream — it goes to the Conservation Commission before it goes anywhere else: site plan, public hearing, and an Order of Conditions in hand before a machine moves. Patios, retaining walls and drainage changes are all on that list. Around the bay-side marsh and the river valleys running south the line catches more properties than owners expect, so we check it at the estimate rather than after.
Everything above is ours to handle. What we need from you is the go-ahead early enough that the hearing calendar is not the thing holding up your build.
What we build
Recent work from across Cape Cod. We photograph what we build; these are our own jobs, not stock.
