Working with us means a straightforward process from start to finish. We begin with a thorough discussion of your vision and a detailed assessment of your property. We'll walk you through material options, design possibilities, and the permitting process specific to Arlington. You'll receive clear communication throughout the project, keeping you informed of progress and next steps. We aim to make the entire experience as smooth and predictable as possible, resulting in a beautiful, functional deck you'll enjoy for years.
For Arlington's climate, which experiences significant temperature swings and moisture throughout the year, composite decking or pressure-treated lumber are excellent choices. Composite materials, like Trex or Azek, resist rot, insects, and fading, requiring very little maintenance. Pressure-treated lumber, typically southern yellow pine, is a cost-effective option that holds up well against moisture and pests when properly sealed and maintained. Both options perform reliably against our cold winters and humid summers.
Yes, you will almost certainly need a building permit from the Town of Arlington's Inspectional Services Department for a new deck construction or a significant deck replacement. This applies to any structure over a certain size or height, and often includes replacing structural components. We handle the permit application process, including submitting plans and ensuring compliance with local zoning bylaws and building codes, which helps avoid delays and ensures your project is approved properly.
Building a new deck in Arlington typically takes between 2 to 4 weeks from the start of construction, depending on the deck's size, complexity, and material choices. This timeframe does not include the planning and permitting phase, which can add several weeks or even a month, depending on the town's review schedule. Once construction begins, factors like weather conditions and material availability can also influence the exact completion date. We always provide a clear project timeline upfront.
