Harwich is where the Lower Cape begins, about 30 minutes east of our shop. Harwich Port, with Wychmere and Saquatucket harbors, has a concentration of well-kept waterfront homes where exterior appearance matters and the salt exposure is real. West and South Harwich are full of mid-century Capes along Route 28, and East Harwich has newer homes toward the Chatham line. Harwich homeowners tend to hold their properties for a long time, so we get asked for work that will last decades rather than a quick fix before a sale.
Decks near Harwich's harbors get constant salt spray. We build with composite decking and stainless steel fasteners and railing hardware, which is the only combination that holds up on the water.
Many Cape Cod decks from the 1980s and 1990s were built without permits, with undersized framing, shallow footings and ledgers nailed straight to the house. When those decks reach the end of their life, the right answer is a full replacement: demolish and haul away the old structure, set new footings to frost depth, flash and bolt a new ledger, frame to current code and install new decking and railings. We handle the permit and inspections, and we usually improve the layout while we are at it, since the original deck was rarely designed for how the house is used now.
Problems we solve
- Soft or spongy boards and a bouncy walking surface
- Rust streaks from corroded screws and hangers
- A ledger board that was never flashed to the house
- Wobbly railings that no longer meet code
- A 1980s deck with footings that heaved
Materials we work with
- Capped composite decking with hidden fasteners
- PVC decking for low-maintenance waterfront use
- Mahogany and pressure-treated wood decking
- Stainless and hot-dipped galvanized structural hardware
- Composite, aluminum and cable railing systems

Straight answers on licensing, permits, timelines and materials.
Have More Questions? Contact UsDoes Braun Construction have up-to-date licenses and insurance?
Yes, absolutely. We are a fully licensed and insured construction company in Massachusetts. This ensures total protection for you, your property, and our crew during your deck replacement project.
How long will my deck replacement project take?
One of our core values is strict adherence to deadlines. During your initial consultation, we will provide a precise timeline and stick to it.
Does the budget cover all costs involved?
Yes. Honesty is our trademark. We provide clear, comprehensive quotes so you know exactly what you are paying for to maximize the return on your investment.
Do I need a permit to replace my deck?
Yes. On Cape Cod, a new or replaced deck requires a building permit and inspections of the footings, framing and final construction. We prepare the drawings, pull the permit and schedule the inspections as part of the project.
Can I change the size or layout when I replace my deck?
Absolutely, and most homeowners do. A replacement is the right time to add stairs where you actually want them, extend the deck, or add a screened section. We design it around how you use the outdoor space now.
How far in advance should I book a deck replacement project in Harwich?
For Harwich and the rest of the Lower Cape we schedule in blocks to make the drive efficient. Booking a few weeks ahead is ideal, and we give you a fixed start date once the estimate is approved.
