About Underdog Construction

Underdog Construction is owned and operated by Wade Cedar, a hands-on builder with over a decade of real construction experience. Wade started his career as a laborer, worked his way into carpentry and project management, and eventually launched Underdog Construction to do things the right way.
We are not a high-volume deck company pushing cookie-cutter designs. We take on projects we can personally manage, communicate clearly, and complete with care. Most of our work comes from referrals, and we treat every deck like it is being built for someone we plan to hear from again.

Custom Deck Building Services Designed Around Your Home

Every deck project starts with how you plan to use the space. We build decks that make sense for your home, your yard, and your lifestyle.
Typical deck projects include:
  • Custom deck design and layout
  • Full tear-out and replacement of existing decks
  • Composite decking installations, including Trex
  • Pressure-treated wood decks when appropriate
  • Railings, stairs, and code-compliant safety features
  • Structural framing built to support long-term use
  • Deck repairs and rot replacement when needed

Composite decks are increasingly popular because they last longer, require less maintenance, and maintain a clean look year after year. We help you decide if composite or wood is the right fit based on your goals, budget, and how you use the space.

Available in Newburyport, Merrimac and Groveland. Lot size and setbacks differ a good deal between the three, and they tend to decide what a deck can be before the design does.

We also take on deck repairs and partial rebuilds when it makes sense. In many cases, what starts as a repair turns into a smarter long-term replacement once the structure is evaluated. We explain your options clearly and let you decide.
