Septic systems, demolition and seawall construction are among the jobs Cape Cod Excavating says it handles on the Lower Cape. Based in Provincetown, the company describes a family business spanning three generations of the Silva family. Its website traces the business to James M Silva more than 75 years ago. It says his son, Warren J Silva, went into business for himself in 1953 and incorporated Cape Cod Excavating in 1985. James W Silva joined full-time in 1993 and, according to the company, now runs the controls alongside his father Warren. The company also lists site work and related earthwork and utility services. The Provincetown Independent has mentioned its snow-removal work.
“A dump truck from Cape Cod Excavating delivering a load of snow to the municipal parking lot at MacMillan Pier on Jan. 28.”
“The giant puddles that last for days in front of Cape Cod Excavating, Cape Tip Seafoods, and BWell Holdings (formerly Fay’s Automotive) will require large pumps and pipes to move that water far enough away.”
“Cape Cod-based companies, such as Cape Cod Excavating, Inc. and John G. Sears & Son, Inc., made posts on social media remembering Mosher for his wit and kindness.”
“Until then, I am working for Cape Cod Excavating, a job that I love.”
