Outdoor Living at Its Best – Custom Decks in Cape Cod
There’s nothing like a Cape Cod summer spent out on your deck – grilling, relaxing, and enjoying the ocean breeze. WM Home Improvement are expert deck builders and repair specialists dedicated to creating safe, beautiful outdoor spaces for your home. Whether you need a brand-new deck design or want to refurbish or expand an existing deck, our team will deliver top-notch craftsmanship that enhances your yard and stands up to the elements.
We have deep experience building decks in the Cape Cod area, where decks endure hot sun, coastal humidity, and winter storms. From design through construction, we ensure your deck is not only gorgeous but also structurally sound and long-lasting. We use materials ideal for our New England climate – including pressure-treated lumber, cedar, and modern composites – to minimize issues like rot, warping, or mold over time.
Our Deck Services
Custom Deck Design & Construction
We’ll work with you to design the perfect deck for your home and lifestyle. This includes determining size and shape (wrap-around decks, rectangular, multi-tiered), placement (attached to your house or a freestanding platform), and features like built-in benches, planters, pergolas, or lighting. Once the design is set, we handle obtaining any permits and then build the deck from the ground up: installing footings, framing the structure, adding deck boards, railings, and stairs. Every deck is built to code and with safety in mind – sturdy handrails, proper baluster spacing, and secure connections.
Wood & Composite Decking Options
Choose from traditional wood decking (such as pressure-treated pine or beautiful tropical hardwoods) or low-maintenance composite decking (like Trex®, AZEK®) that resists splintering and never needs painting. We’ll explain the pros and cons of each material for your situation. For a natural look, cedar or mahogany can be great (though they require staining/sealing); for ultimate durability, composite might be the way to go. You can also mix materials – for example, composite deck surface with wood railings – depending on your budget and style.
Deck Repair & Restoration
If you have an older deck that’s seen better days, we can help restore it. Common issues in Cape Cod decks include rotted support posts or joists, loose railings, warped or splintered boards, and worn finishes. Our team will inspect your deck and recommend the needed repairs – whether that’s replacing a few bad boards, reinforcing the structure, or re-surfacing the whole deck. We can also power wash and re-stain wooden decks to bring back their luster. Your safety is paramount; we’ll ensure the deck is fully secure so you can use it with peace of mind.
Porches, Patios & More
In addition to decks, we also build front porches, screen porches, and can even assist with patio projects. If you’re looking to create or update any outdoor living space, we have the carpentry expertise to deliver a result that complements your home’s exterior and increases enjoyment of your property.
Built for Cape Cod Weather
Cape Cod’s weather can be tough on outdoor structures – the sun, salt, and seasonal changes cause lesser-quality decks to deteriorate quickly. That’s why we build with an emphasis on durability:
- We use galvanized or stainless steel hardware that won’t rust.
- We apply proper flashing where the deck attaches to your house to prevent water infiltration.
- If using wood, we thoroughly seal cut ends and can apply protective stains. If composite, we follow manufacturer specs for spacing (to allow expansion in heat) and support.
- We design for stability – for example, diagonal bracing to prevent sway, and code-compliant stair dimensions for safety.
The result is a deck that can handle Cape Cod’s climate and remain a safe, inviting outdoor retreat for many years. We back our deck construction with a solid warranty on our workmanship, because we’re confident in the quality we deliver.

From a small backyard deck in Yarmouth to a large wrap-around farmer’s porch in Falmouth, WM Home Improvement has designed and built outdoor structures across the Cape. We have happy deck clients in Barnstable, Mashpee, Dennis, and beyond.
