Your local decks contractor in Norfolk
Looking for reliable decks in Norfolk, Massachusetts? Waterfront Construction has served Norfolk and the surrounding communities since 2018. Based right in nearby Northborough, we're a licensed, insured local team — not an out-of-town outfit — so Norfolk homeowners get fast response, honest pricing, and craftsmanship that lasts.
Norfolk is in Norfolk County, Massachusetts, established in 1870 and home to roughly 11,500 people. It was largely built out in the streetcar era, which tends to mean late-Victorian and early-1900s two- and three-family homes — solid framing, generous trim, and wiring and plumbing retrofitted more than once. 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 35 miles from our Northborough shop — about 45 minutes to an hour in normal traffic. Being close keeps estimates and site visits quick.
New work shouldn't announce itself. We match rooflines, trim profiles, siding exposure and interior finishes to what your Norfolk home already has, so the decks reads as original rather than as something bolted on later.
The job isn't finished when the work is. We haul away the debris, protect and clean everything we touched, and walk the whole decks project with you in Norfolk before we ask for the final payment.

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