Working on Portsmouth housing
Portsmouth has waterfront on both shores and big inland lots, and that combination shapes everything we do here. The waterfront homes need decks built and maintained for salt exposure, while the inland properties have the room for serious outdoor living spaces — large decks, covered porches, and entertainment areas. The basements in the newer colonials and the older farmhouses are both worth finishing, and the interior work ranges from updating the finishes in a modern home to carefully matching the trim in something that's been here since before the highway. A Portsmouth project runs the full range of what we do.

Local answers
Yes. Both shorelines mean salt and wind on whatever face points toward the water. We use marine-grade materials and fasteners, and we design the deck for the exposure. A waterfront deck in Portsmouth is built for the conditions, not just the view.
