Deck Materials We Install

Composite Decking — Trex and TimberTech

Composite decking is the most popular choice for Massachusetts homeowners, and for good reason. Brands like Trex and TimberTech are engineered to resist fading, warping, moisture, and mold without the annual maintenance that wood requires. No staining. No sealing. No sanding. Composite boards are available in dozens of colors and grain patterns that authentically replicate the look of natural wood, and they carry 25-year warranties that protect your investment for decades. We install both Trex and TimberTech product lines and bring samples to your consultation so you can see and feel the difference before committing.

Pressure-Treated Wood Decking

Pressure-treated lumber is a proven, cost-effective choice and the material we use for all substructure framing regardless of what surface material you choose. For homeowners who prefer a wood surface at a lower upfront cost, pressure-treated decking delivers solid performance with proper periodic maintenance. It is the most budget-friendly entry point for a quality deck build.

Hardwood Decking

For homeowners who want the warmth and character of real wood with exceptional natural durability, hardwood decking — including cedar and tropical hardwoods — is a premium option. Hardwood decks require more ongoing maintenance than composite but offer a natural aesthetic that no engineered product fully replicates. We discuss all three material categories at your free consultation so you can make a confident, informed choice.

How Much Does Deck Installation Cost in Massachusetts?

Deck installation in Central Massachusetts typically ranges from $15,000 to $45,000 for a standard residential deck, depending on size, materials, design complexity, and site conditions.

A straightforward 12×16 pressure-treated wood deck runs roughly $12,000–$18,000 installed. A 16×20 composite deck using Trex or TimberTech mid-tier products runs approximately $20,000–$32,000 installed. Multi-level decks, premium composite product lines, built-in features, or complex site conditions push toward the higher end of that range.

Every Horizon Deck and Patio estimate is free, detailed, and completely transparent. We visit your property, review the space, and give you a clear written project cost before any commitment is made — no vague ballparks, no surprises after work begins.

Our Deck Installation Process

Free Design Consultation

We start by visiting your property, reviewing your outdoor space, and listening to what you want the finished deck to do. We discuss material options, layout possibilities, and budget so you have a clear picture before any numbers are finalized.

Permitting and Planning

We handle all permitting required by your town's Building Department — including construction drawings, application submission, and inspection coordination. In Massachusetts, most attached and elevated decks require a building permit. We manage the entire process so you do not have to interact with the town at all.

Professional Installation

With permits approved and materials on order, our crew gets to work. We set footings below frost depth, frame the structure with pressure-treated lumber, and install your surface material with clean lines and precise detailing. Job sites stay clean throughout, and we communicate proactively at every stage.

Final Walkthrough

Before we close a project, we walk the finished deck with you and confirm every detail meets your expectations. We do not consider a job done until you are completely satisfied.

Why Central Massachusetts Homeowners Choose Horizon Deck and Patio

Tyler Grams founded Horizon Deck and Patio on a straightforward premise: homeowners in Lunenburg, Northborough, Westborough, Southborough, and Hopkinton deserve a local contractor who shows up when he says he will, builds what he says he will build, and stands behind the work when the project is done. We are not a franchise operation or an out-of-area company treating Central Massachusetts as a satellite market. We are your neighbors and we bring that local accountability to every project.
