Your local decks contractor in Boylston
Many Boylston homes were built long before the materials and codes we work with today, which is exactly why decks here rewards a contractor who has opened up a few walls locally. Waterfront Construction has been doing that across Central Massachusetts since 2018 — licensed, insured and owner-supervised.
Boylston is in Worcester County, Massachusetts, established in 1785 and home to roughly 4,800 people. It was settled well before the Republic, which usually means a core of Federal and Greek Revival homes surrounded by later infill — plenty of hand-framed structure, and rooflines never meant to carry today's insulation. For a contractor that makes it a small community where most work is word-of-mouth and your neighbours will notice who you hired. It sits in Central Massachusetts. It is about 7 miles from our Northborough shop — about 15 minutes in normal traffic. Being close keeps estimates and site visits quick.
Permitting and inspections vary town to town across Central Massachusetts, and Boylston is no different. As your licensed contractor we file what the building department requires and schedule inspections around the work, so the paperwork never becomes your problem — or your delay.
Whether it's a single room or a whole-home project, we bring the same care, licensing and insurance to every Boylston job — and we don't consider it done until you're completely happy with the result.
For the full detail on how we approach this work — materials, process and what to expect — see our decks page.

Do I need a permit for decks in Boylston, MA?+
Yes, almost certainly. Massachusetts exempts a deck only if it is under 200 sq ft, under 30 inches high, unattached to the house and not serving a required exit door — all four at once. Any deck off your back door needs a permit, and we file it for you. We file it with Boylston's building department as a Registered Home Improvement Contractor (MA HIC #196540).
Composite or wood — which is better?+
Composite costs more up front but needs almost no maintenance and lasts longer. Wood is budget-friendly and classic but needs periodic sealing. We help you weigh the trade-offs.

Almost every real deck needs a building permit in Massachusetts.
780 CMR exempts a deck only if it meets ALL four conditions at once: no more than 200 sq ft, no more than 30 inches above grade at any point, not attached to the dwelling, and not serving a required exit door. A deck off your back door, or any deck attached to the house, fails that test — so plan on a permit and an inspection. We file it for you.
For decks work in the Town of Boylston, the filing goes to Boylston's building department. As a Massachusetts Registered Home Improvement Contractor (HIC #196540) we pull the permit in our name, book the inspections and meet the inspector on site — you never have to take a day off for it. Requirements do change, so we confirm the current position with Boylston's office before any work starts.
