Building in Orleans
Local know-how for Orleans homes
Orleans sits where the Cape turns north, touching both Cape Cod Bay at Skaket Beach and Rock Harbor and the Atlantic at Nauset Beach. Pleasant Bay and Town Cove wrap around East Orleans and South Orleans, so many homes have water on more than one side. The housing is a mix of antique capes near the village center, shingled waterfront homes on the coves and newer capes on wooded lots. Orleans is a member of the Old King's Highway Regional Historic District, and part of its ocean shore lies in the Cape Cod National Seashore. Both shape how a deck, siding or roofing project is planned here. Cedar shingle siding and composite decking are common choices, and waterfront projects often need conservation commission review. Orleans projects are handled from our South Yarmouth office.

FAQ
Orleans FAQ
Does a new deck on Pleasant Bay in Orleans need special approval?
Usually. A deck within 100 feet of a wetland, coastal bank or the bay likely needs conservation commission review under the Massachusetts Wetlands Protection Act, and homes inside the Old King's Highway district may need a certificate from the local committee. PLJ helps you plan for both.
Which siding suits an Orleans home in the historic district?
Natural cedar shingles are the traditional look and are generally the easiest to get approved in the Old King's Highway district. Ask the committee before choosing synthetic materials. PLJ can bring samples to the estimate visit.
Can PLJ repair storm damage in Orleans after a nor'easter?
Yes. We secure the house first, with tarping where needed, document the damage for your insurance claim, and then make permanent repairs to the roof, siding, trim or deck.
