Building in Sandwich
Local know-how for Sandwich homes
Sandwich is the first town east of the Cape Cod Canal on the bay side, with Town Neck Beach, the Sandwich Boardwalk and the Scorton Creek marshes along Cape Cod Bay. The historic village around Shawme Pond holds some of the oldest homes on the Cape, and Route 6A through East Sandwich passes antique capes and farmhouses. South of Route 6, Forestdale and South Sandwich are mostly wooded neighborhoods of capes, colonials and raised ranches. Each area calls for a slightly different approach to decking, siding and roofing. Sandwich is part of the Old King's Highway Regional Historic District, so exterior work on homes inside the district needs approval from the local committee. Bay front homes take north and east winds in winter storms, which makes good flashing and shingle detailing especially important. PLJ serves Sandwich from our South Yarmouth office.

FAQ
Sandwich FAQ
Can PLJ replace windows on an antique home in Sandwich village?
Yes. We measure, flash and trim each opening so it stays weather tight. If the home is in the Old King's Highway district, the window style usually needs committee approval first, and PLJ can help with that application.
Is a deck in Forestdale treated differently from one near the bay in Sandwich?
The permit process is similar, but the materials can differ. Inland lots in Forestdale see less salt, so pressure treated or cedar decking can work well, while bay front decks benefit from composite or PVC and stainless hardware.
Do Sandwich homes near Scorton Creek need conservation approval?
Work within 100 feet of a marsh, creek or other wetland resource area generally needs Sandwich Conservation Commission review under the Massachusetts Wetlands Protection Act, in addition to a building permit.
