Replacing a deck in Eastham

Eastham is the gateway to the Outer Cape and home to the Salt Pond Visitor Center of the Cape Cod National Seashore.

Decks close to the bay, Nauset Marsh, and the ocean wear out faster: salt air corrodes the hardware, and sun and wind break down the boards. When we replace a deck in Eastham, we start underneath, with the footings and the ledger, and rebuild with corrosion-resistant hardware and, if you want, boards that never need staining.

Bay-side lots in Eastham take the full afternoon sun and the wind off Cape Cod Bay, so heat, fading, and solid railings all factor into the material choice.

If your Eastham house is a summer home, fall and winter are the time to replace the deck, so it is ready when you open the house.

Questions

Deck Replacement in Eastham: FAQ

Do I need a permit to replace a deck in Eastham?

Usually, yes. Rebuilding the structure needs a building permit from the Eastham Building Department, and the new deck has to meet the current code. Near a wetland, dune, or the shore, the Eastham Conservation Commission reviews it too. We handle the paperwork.

Do you replace decks in Eastham and North Eastham?

Yes. We replace and repair decks all over Eastham, including Eastham and North Eastham. Our base in South Yarmouth is about 19 miles away.

Repair or replace: how do I know?

Look underneath. If the joists, ledger, and posts are solid and only boards or railings are worn, a repair can work. Soft framing, a rotted ledger, rusted hangers, or footings that moved mean a replacement. We check it for you and put it in writing.

What decking lasts longest in Eastham?

Close to the bay, Nauset Marsh, and the ocean, composite or PVC boards with stainless or hot-dip galvanized hardware hold up best with the least upkeep. Cedar and pressure-treated wood still work well farther from salt air if you clean and stain them.
