Your local decks contractor in Woburn
Waterfront Construction has been building and remodelling for Woburn and the rest of Greater Boston since 2018. We are licensed, insured, and deliberately small: enough crew to keep a schedule, few enough jobs at once that your decks project never becomes the one that gets squeezed.
Woburn is in Middlesex County, Massachusetts, established in 1642 and home to roughly 41,000 people. That makes it one of the oldest communities in the state, so the older streets carry genuine antique stock — post-and-beam frames, hand-cut joinery, plaster over lath, and additions layered on across three centuries. For a contractor that makes it a large community, so the housing runs the full range of eras and budgets. It sits in Greater Boston. 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.
Permitting and inspections vary town to town across Greater Boston, and Woburn 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.
No surprises and no runaround: you get an itemized estimate up front, a realistic schedule, and honest updates if anything changes. That's how we've earned repeat business and referrals across Woburn and the wider region.

Do I need a permit for decks in Woburn, 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 Woburn's building and inspectional services 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 City of Woburn, the filing goes to Woburn's building and inspectional services 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 Woburn's office before any work starts.
