Ken Rose Septic Services

Ken Rose Septic Services has been a Rose family business on the Outer Cape since 1953 — 73 years, by the company's own count — working out of Long Pond Road in Wellfleet. Septic is the centre of it: new systems and repairs, plus the digging that goes with them — excavation, town water connections, demolition, land clearing, and driveway and landscape construction. The company also says it is a Cultec certified installer. It states that it holds a Massachusetts construction supervisor licence, a home improvement contractor registration and a hoisting engineer licence. Ask for those numbers and look them up on the state registers before work starts. For a septic replacement or repair in Wellfleet and the towns around it, or the site work behind a new build, this is a local outfit with the equipment for it. Get the scope and schedule in writing, ask who handles the board of health paperwork and the inspections, and confirm insurance before anyone breaks ground.
