Custom Decks & Outdoor Living on Cape Cod

About Decks & Outdoor
A well-built deck turns a backyard into the place you actually want to spend your summers. At Wordell Construction, we design and build custom decks and outdoor living spaces made to handle everything Cape Cod weather throws at them — salt air, sun, and coastal storms included. Owner Jonathan Wordell works with you to plan a layout that fits your yard, complements your home, and matches how you like to spend time outside, then builds it to last for years of cookouts, quiet mornings, and gatherings with family and friends.
Decks Built for the Cape Cod Climate
Building a deck on Cape Cod isn’t the same as building one anywhere else. Coastal moisture, salt air, and seasonal temperature swings all take a toll on materials and fasteners, which is why the details matter so much. With 15 years of hands-on construction experience, Jonathan builds decks with proper footings, corrosion-resistant hardware, and materials chosen to stand up to the coastal environment — so your deck stays solid and safe season after season.
Whether you’re after the classic warmth of natural wood or the low-maintenance durability of composite decking, we’ll walk you through the options and help you choose what’s right for your home, your budget, and how much upkeep you want down the road.

Frequently Asked Questions
Should I choose wood or composite decking?
Both have their strengths. Wood offers natural beauty at a lower upfront cost, while composite requires less maintenance and holds up especially well in the coastal climate. We'll walk you through the trade-offs and help you decide what fits your home and lifestyle.
Do you handle permits for deck construction?
Yes. Decks typically require permits and must meet code for footings, railings, and stairs. We handle the permitting and build everything to code so your deck is safe and sound.
Can you repair or rebuild my existing deck?
Absolutely. Whether your deck needs a few boards replaced, new railings, or a full rebuild, we'll assess it and give you honest options during your free estimate.
When is the best time to build a deck on Cape Cod?
We build year-round, but spring and early summer are popular so your deck is ready for the season. Reaching out early means we can get you on the schedule at the right time.
