Martha's Vineyard
On the Vineyard every pallet of stone and every machine arrives by ferry, so the schedule is built around freight rather than around the crew. We over-order rather than under-order, stage material once, and work in longer stretches on the island instead of coming and going. It costs more in logistics and it is the only way it works.
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
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 great ponds and the shore 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.
