12x12 Composite Deck in Sandwich, MA

A full deck rebuild on Cape Cod — swapping out tired pressure-treated boards for low-maintenance composite decking and clean black aluminum railings.

The Project: A Sandwich Deck Rebuild

This Sandwich, MA homeowner came to us with a weathered 12x12 pressure-treated deck that had served its time. The boards were worn, the pickets were graying, and the whole space had stopped feeling like somewhere you wanted to spend a summer evening. We took it down to the ground, rebuilt the framing with fresh pressure-treated joists and beams, and finished it off with gray composite decking, sleek black aluminum railings, and matching composite-wrapped stairs. The result is a deck that looks sharp against the cedar shingle siding and won't need staining or sealing year after year.

What This Project Included

Full demo and disposal of the existing pressure-treated deck and railings. New pressure-treated framing — beams, joists, posts, and footings inspected and brought up to current code. Gray composite deck boards with a wood-grain finish for warmth and traction. Black powder-coated aluminum railings with balusters, posts, and post caps. New stairs with composite treads and a black aluminum handrail. Site cleanup and final walk-through.

Why Composite for a Cape Cod Deck?

Cape Cod weather is hard on wood. Salt air, freeze-thaw cycles, and humid summers mean a pressure-treated deck usually needs sanding, staining, or replacement every few years. Composite decking holds its color, resists mold and rot, and only needs the occasional rinse — which makes it a great fit for homes in Sandwich, Bourne, Falmouth, and the rest of the Cape.
