Cape Cod, MA

Cape Cod is a place where tradition meets nature, and the local aesthetic values sustainability and beautiful, weathered wood. Americana™ Thermally Modified hardwoods are a perfect fit for this environment.

At this project in Wellfleet, the homeowners faced a common problem: a rotted deck. They wanted to replace it without creating a stark contrast to their home's 40-year-old, silvered cedar siding. The solution was our Americana™ Red Oak decking, which was chosen for its classic 1x4 slatted look. It perfectly matched the profile of their old deck and offered a beautiful, durable alternative. They also used the "combed" profile for extra traction around their outdoor shower, a smart and functional choice. The video you're about to see was shot a year after the installation, and you'll notice how the wood has already silvered beautifully, blending in seamlessly with the existing siding.

This project shows how you can combine modern, sustainable materials with the timeless, natural look that makes Cape Cod so special.
