Sustainability Meets Coastal Aesthetic
Wellfleet, MA — Replacing tradition with modern, high-performance Red Oak.
Cape Cod is a place where tradition meets nature, and the local aesthetic values sustainability and beautiful, weathered wood. In Wellfleet, the homeowners faced a common problem: a rotted deck. They wanted a replacement that wouldn't create a stark contrast against their home's 40-year-old, silvered cedar siding.
The Solution
Americana™ Red Oak decking was chosen for its classic 1x4 slatted look. It perfectly matched the profile of the original deck while offering a much more durable alternative. The homeowners also utilized our "combed" profile for extra traction around their outdoor shower—a smart, functional choice for coastal living.
The video above was filmed one year after installation. You can see how the wood has silvered beautifully, blending seamlessly with the historic siding while providing the structural integrity of thermally modified hardwood.
