Custom Decks and Home
Construction in Harvard

Large-scale custom decks, home additions, and full renovations for Harvard homeowners — experienced team managing every phase on even the most complex properties.

Built for Harvard's Distinctive Properties

Harvard, MA is a town of large properties, wooded lots, and architecturally distinctive homes that require a contractor who can work at scale and deliver finishes that match the character of the house. That is exactly what we do.

We have completed a major multi-level composite deck project on a large hillside property in Harvard — two deck levels, a grand staircase to grade, and a full elevated section spanning the slope. The entire structure was engineered for the terrain, built with precision, and finished with composite decking and white vinyl railings that complement the cedar-shingle home beautifully.

North Heritage Construction is a licensed and insured general contractor based in Massachusetts, serving Harvard and surrounding communities since 2004. Every project is managed by our own experienced team — no shortcuts, no subcontracting the details that matter.
