Cambridge Deck FAQs
Do I need a permit for a new deck in Cambridge?
New decks and structural work generally require a permit under Massachusetts building code (780 CMR). We handle the permitting coordination as part of the project; minor cosmetic repairs may not need one.
How long does a deck build take?
As a range: new decks typically 3–10 business days, repairs 1–5, and stairs/railings 1–4 — depending on size, access, and materials.
Composite or wood — what should I pick?
Composite (Trex, TimberTech, AZEK) is low-maintenance; hardwoods (Ipe, Mahogany, Red Cedar) give a natural look. All framing is pressure-treated either way, and we walk you through the trade-offs on-site.
