Lower Cape Sand

Lower Cape Sand and Gravel has run a septic and excavation business out of North Eastham since 1996, also doing business as Murphy Nickerson under president Dennis Murphy. The company handles site-work — septic system installation, excavation, foundations, land clearing, bulldozing, road construction and sea walls — plus asphalt paving, and it operates its own sand-and-gravel yard. Google shows a 5-star average across 13 ratings, though only one review text is on file: a 2024 visitor called the North Eastham yard a convenient, reasonably priced spot to drop off brush or compost, noted it's cash only, and praised the staff as friendly and helpful. The Better Business Bureau lists the company but has not accredited it and reports insufficient information to issue a letter rating, so there's no independent grade to check before booking. With only one detailed review on record and that review describing the yard rather than a septic or excavation job, it's worth calling ahead to confirm current pricing and scheduling for site-work specifically.
