Hiring a Decks & Porches contractor in Cambridge
File with Cambridge ISD for any attached or elevated deck. Submit framing drawings, ledger detail, and a site plan. Projects within 100 feet of the Charles River or Alewife Brook require Conservation Commission filing before ISD issues the permit. Cambridge Historical Commission review applies in designated historic areas. Expect one to two weeks for standard plan review.
Cambridge deck costs fall in the Boston metro band, reflecting high labor rates and the added complexity of working on attached houses with tight rear access. A pressure-treated pine deck runs roughly $17,000 to $28,000; composite or PVC decking adds $7,000 to $14,000. Third-floor porch structural repairs on triple-deckers often run $12,000 to $22,000 before any new decking or railing work. Ground-level decks on narrower urban lots tend to be simpler and can come in at the lower end of the range.
Massachusetts requires a written contract and a Home Improvement Contractor registration for most residential decks & porches work; ask for the registration number and check it before paying a deposit.
