Outdoor Shower Enclosures for Brewster homes
Brewster is entirely within the Old King's Highway Regional Historic District, so most visible exterior work needs to go through the local committee. Many homes sit in wooded lots where shade and moisture shorten the life of roofs and decks.
Brewster is known as the sea captains' town, and a town-wide inventory surveyed more than 300 houses that are a century old or more. Work on these homes is about restraint: matching shingle exposure and trim profiles, keeping original details where they can be saved and making new work hard to tell from old.
Away from Route 6A, many Brewster homes sit in deep shade on wooded lots around the ponds. Shade and moisture shorten the life of roofs and decks, so we pay close attention to ventilation, flashing at every wall and chimney, and decking materials that dry out well.
About 42 percent of Brewster homes were used seasonally in 2020, higher than the Cape average. We plan projects around when you are here, keep you updated while you are not, and close the house up at the end of every day.

FAQ
Outdoor Shower Enclosures in Brewster, MA: common questions
Do I need a permit for outdoor shower enclosures in Brewster?
An outdoor shower with hot and cold water usually needs a plumbing permit, pulled by a licensed plumber, and the town can also look at where the water drains. In Brewster, permits go through the Brewster Building Department at Town Offices, 2198 Main Street, Brewster, MA 02631, 508-896-3701 ext. 1125. Exterior changes in Brewster can also need review by the Brewster 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.
What is the best material for an outdoor shower on Cape Cod?
Western red cedar and Alaskan yellow cedar are the classic choices because they resist rot and weather to a natural gray. PVC boards cost more but need almost no maintenance and never rot. Many of our showers use a cedar enclosure on a PVC or composite base where water sits.
Can an outdoor shower have hot water?
Yes. Most outdoor showers we build have hot and cold water tied into the home's plumbing through a licensed plumber, with shut-off valves inside the house so the lines can be drained for winter.
