Exterior Home Remodeling for Sandwich homes
Sandwich is the oldest town on Cape Cod, and the area along Route 6A falls inside the Old King's Highway Regional Historic District. Exterior changes visible from a public way there usually need approval from the town's historic committee before work starts.
Sandwich was settled in 1637 and is home to the Hoxie House, described as the oldest house on Cape Cod. Along Route 6A and in the village center, antique homes sit next to well kept capes and colonials, and new work has to respect the proportions, trim and materials of the street.
Everything north of Route 6, from the Bourne line to the Barnstable line and down to the low water mark on Cape Cod Bay, is inside the Old King's Highway Regional Historic District. Exterior changes there go through the Sandwich OKH committee, which offers both certificates of appropriateness and simpler certificates of exemption.
South of Route 6, in Forestdale and the neighborhoods around the ponds, homes are mostly single-family houses on wooded lots. There, roofing, siding and deck projects usually need only a building permit, and the focus shifts to shade, moisture and ventilation.

FAQ
Exterior Home Remodeling in Sandwich, MA: common questions
Do I need a permit for exterior home remodeling in Sandwich?
An exterior remodel needs a building permit, with the roofing, siding, windows and doors listed on the application. In Sandwich, permits go through the Sandwich Building Department at 100 Route 6A, Sandwich, MA 02563, 508-888-4200. Exterior changes in Sandwich can also need review by the Old King's Highway Historic District Committee and the Conservation Commission, depending on where the house sits, so it is worth checking before work is scheduled.
Why combine roofing, siding and windows into one project?
Doing them together lets the flashing at roof edges, windows and doors tie into the new siding the right way, which is where most water problems start. It also means one set of permits, one round of staging and cleanup, and one contractor responsible for how the pieces fit.
What order should exterior work be done in?
In general the roof comes first, then windows and doors, then siding and trim. That order lets each layer lap over the one below it so water runs out, not in. If the budget only allows part of the work now, we plan the phases so nothing has to be torn off later.
