Spring Has Sprung! Let’s Talk About Creating That Perfect Outdoor Space
May has arrived and hopefully some of the nicer weather will actually stick around! Here on Cape Cod, we can finally start thinking about getting back to some outdoor living – cookouts, beach strolling, golf and comfortable days and evenings with friends.
This is the PERECT time to start planning a new deck, screened porch, pergola, or outdoor living structure. And our experts can design and build your Cape Cod oasis. Maybe you have an old deck that has seen better days or you’re ready to finally enclose it and make a three-season room.
Remember, Memorial Day through Labor Day is just 14 or so weekends. If you spend June and July still waiting on a contractor, you’ve lost half the season before your first cookout. So, think about getting started right now!
We’re experts in wraparound decks, a waterfront porch with composite decking, or a shaded pergola for afternoon entertaining.
Here are some options to consider:
- A composite deck gives you a low-maintenance, high-beauty platform that stands up to salt air and sea spray for decades
- A screened-in porch extends your usable season from early spring through late fall
- A pergola or shade structure creates a defined outdoor room perfect for dining, entertaining, or simply relaxing
- An outdoor kitchen or built-in bar area transforms your backyard into the ultimate summer gathering spot
- Multi-level decking takes advantage of Cape Cod’s varied topography and water views to create stunning outdoor environments
Composite Decking has become the gold standard for many as the material is engineered to resist moisture, fading, and mold — all major concerns in a coastal environment. Composite decking requires minimal maintenance (no staining or sealing), looks beautiful year after year, and comes in a wide range of colors and textures.
Pressure-Treated Lumber remains a solid, cost-effective choice for deck framing and, in some cases, decking surfaces. When properly sealed and maintained, PT lumber performs well in the Cape Cod environment.
New Deck Construction
From simple ground-level platform decks to sweeping multi-level structures with built-in seating, stairs, and railing systems, we design and build decks that match your home’s architecture and your family’s lifestyle.
Screened Porches & Three-Season Rooms
A screened porch dramatically extends the time you can enjoy the outdoors comfortably.
Pergolas & Shade Structures
A well-designed pergola creates an outdoor room with character — defining your space, providing shade, and adding architectural interest to your yard.
