Chatham sits at the elbow of Cape Cod with open Atlantic on one side and Nantucket Sound on the other. No town on the Cape is more exposed to wind and salt, and no town cares more about how its houses look: the Old Village and downtown are subject to historic review, and the shingle-style, white-trim aesthetic is expected almost everywhere. Chatham homeowners are investing in properties they intend to keep, and they want exterior work that survives a nor'easter and still looks right from the street. Chatham is about 40 minutes from our Centerville shop.
Chatham's oceanfront and Sound-front decks get salt spray and wind that would destroy an ordinary deck in a few years. We use composite decking, stainless hardware and railing systems rated for coastal exposure.
A screened porch turns a deck into a room you can use on a buggy July evening or a rainy afternoon. We build screened porches as new structures or as additions to an existing deck, with a proper roof tied into the house, framing sized for the roof load, screen panels that can be removed or replaced, and a finished ceiling and floor. Many Cape Cod homeowners add a screened section to one end of a larger deck so they get both open sun and covered shade. We design the roofline to match the house so the porch looks original.
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 screened porch project.
How long will my screened porch 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.
Can you add a screened porch to my existing deck?
Sometimes. The existing deck framing and footings have to be able to carry a roof, which most older decks cannot. We inspect the structure first; if it needs reinforcement or new footings, we include that in the proposal.
Does a screened porch need a building permit?
Yes. A screened porch is a roofed structure attached to the house, so it requires a building permit, framing inspection and final inspection. We handle the drawings, permit and inspections.
Can you build a screened porch that will hold up to Chatham's storms?
That is exactly what we design for. Chatham is the most weather-exposed town on the Cape, so we spec materials and fastening for coastal high-wind conditions and seal every detail against wind-driven rain and salt.
