Composite Decks for Eastham homes
Eastham borders the Cape Cod National Seashore, and many homes are year-round capes and ranches with exposure to wind from both the bay and the ocean side.
Eastham is narrow, with Cape Cod Bay on one side and the Atlantic on the other, and wind reaches houses from both. Roofs, siding and decks here are built for exposure, and outdoor showers are close to standard equipment on homes near the beaches.
About 95 percent of Eastham homes are single-family, most built in the 1970s or later, and more than half are seasonal. Many are capes and ranches that are ready for their second roof, new windows and a deck that can sit through the winter without attention.
For homes inside the National Seashore, Eastham's Seashore District limits enlargements: habitable space can grow no more than 50 percent over what existed in 1959, with set setbacks, and the town notifies the Secretary of the Interior of building permit applications there. We sort out what a project can include before design starts.

How we handle composite decks
Composite decking from Trex and TimberTech does not need the yearly sealing or staining a wood deck asks for, and it holds its color through salt air and summer sun better than bare lumber. It costs more up front than pressure-treated wood, so it makes the most sense on a deck you plan to keep for a long time.

FAQ
Composite Decks in Eastham, MA: common questions
Do I need a permit for composite decks in Eastham?
A new or rebuilt deck needs a building permit with footing and framing details, and work near wetlands, ponds or the shore also goes through the Conservation Commission. In Eastham, permits go through the Eastham Building Department at 2500 State Highway, Eastham, MA 02642, 508-240-5900 ext. 3202. Exterior changes in Eastham can also need review by the Seashore District (Cape Cod National Seashore), the Olde Towne Centre Historic District Commission, the Eastham Historical Commission and the Conservation Commission, depending on where the house sits, so it is worth checking before work is scheduled.
Is composite decking worth it on Cape Cod?
It costs more up front than pressure-treated wood, but it does not need sealing or staining every year and it holds up to salt air and sun. On a deck you plan to keep for a long time, the lower upkeep usually makes up the difference.
Can new composite boards go on my old deck frame?
Sometimes. Composite boards need the joist spacing the manufacturer specifies, and the frame has to be sound. We check the joists, beams and footings first and repair or add framing where it is needed.
