Frequently Asked Questions

The best material for a new deck in Arlington, MA, often depends on your budget, desired maintenance level, and aesthetic preferences, but pressure-treated lumber and composite decking are the most popular choices. Pressure-treated wood is cost-effective and durable, especially when properly sealed against Arlington's wet seasons. Composite materials, like Trex or Azek, offer superior resistance to rot, insects, and fading, requiring less upkeep, which is a significant advantage given our region's fluctuating temperatures and humidity. We can discuss the pros and cons of each during a consultation, considering factors like sun exposure and proximity to moisture sources in your specific yard.
Building a standard-sized deck in Arlington typically takes between 1 to 3 weeks from breaking ground to completion, assuming permits are in place and materials are readily available. This timeline can vary based on the deck's complexity, size, and features like multi-levels, pergolas, or built-in seating. Weather conditions, especially during our spring rains or early winter, can also influence the schedule. We prioritize efficient scheduling and clear communication to keep your project moving forward without unnecessary delays.
Yes, you absolutely need a building permit from the Town of Arlington's Inspectional Services Department for most new deck constructions or significant renovations. This is a crucial step to ensure your deck meets local zoning ordinances and safety codes. The permitting process involves submitting detailed plans and often requires inspections at various stages of construction. We assist our clients in navigating this process, helping prepare the necessary documentation and ensuring all work complies with Arlington's specific requirements, including setback rules and structural guidelines.
To protect your deck from Arlington's harsh winters, regular cleaning, sealing, and proper snow removal are essential. For wood decks, applying a high-quality sealant or stain annually or bi-annually will create a barrier against moisture, preventing rot and cracking caused by freeze-thaw cycles. Composite decks require less sealing but benefit from a thorough cleaning before winter to prevent mildew growth. When removing snow, use a plastic shovel to avoid scratching the surface, and never use rock salt, as it can damage deck materials and corrode fasteners over time.
Common deck design considerations for Arlington homes often include maximizing space on smaller lots, integrating with existing home architecture, and addressing privacy concerns. Many Arlington properties have sloped yards or mature trees, which can be incorporated into a multi-level design or used for natural shade. We also frequently design decks that account for views, whether it's overlooking a backyard garden or providing a quiet retreat from neighborhood activity. Material choices often lean towards low-maintenance options due to busy lifestyles, and lighting is key for enjoying evenings outdoors.
