Your local decks contractor in Medway
Every decks quote in Medway should be comparable line by line — scope, materials, timeline, price. Ours is, deliberately, because vague quotes are where budgets go wrong. Waterfront Construction is Northborough-based, licensed (HIC #196540) and insured, and the estimate is free either way.
Medway is in Norfolk County, Massachusetts, established in 1713 and home to roughly 13,000 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 town, which usually means a mix of older centre-of-town housing and newer subdivisions on the edges. It sits in the MetroWest region. It is about 20 miles from our Northborough shop — about 30 to 40 minutes in normal traffic. Being close keeps estimates and site visits quick.
Material choice drives most of the cost difference on a decks project. Rather than quote one option, we walk Medway homeowners through what each tier actually buys in durability, upkeep and appearance — so the budget goes where it matters to you, not where it matters to us.
If we're not the right fit for your decks project in Medway — wrong timing, wrong scale, wrong specialism — we'll say so and point you somewhere better. An honest no costs us one job; a bad yes costs us a reputation across the MetroWest region.

Do I need a permit for decks in Medway, 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 Medway'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 Medway, the filing goes to Medway'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 Medway's office before any work starts.
