Deck Cabling & Ship's Wire Installations

"Paul did a great job replacing the wooden railing slats on our deck with horizontal cable wiring! In addition to top-notch craftsmanship, he was also a pleasure to work with, conscientious, neat and extremely professional." Eric B.

"I have lived on the lake for 21 years and dreamed of doing my deck over for the last 10… I’ve always wanted cable style railings and Paul sure did deliver!

 I just love the contemporary look! Paul is a seasoned professional! 

He shows up on time, the price is more than fair and the quality of work he provides is exceptional. 

I’ve been a contractor over 34 yrs and I can honestly say  he is top notch. 

I’m so excited to enjoy my new view!"

The Story Behind Off The List Handyman LLC

Update your look and change your view

Based on Lake Maspenock in Hopkinton, MA, and servicing Metro-West, we go above and beyond to cater to each project’s specific needs. We install Deck Cabling, also known as Ship's Wire, on existing and new decks, using all Stainless Steel materials. Upgrade your deck, and enjoy the view!! We also work with Realtors (improved curb appeal for your listings) and Contractors who's clients want this look. 

If you have older balusters your view is normally blocked unless you have high-top table and chairs. With Deck Cabling, you can relax in your normal porch furniture, enjoy your propane fire pit, and still enjoy your view. If you're on a lake, this is a MUST!

We are extremely pleased with the deck cabling provided by Off the List Handyman. Paul was very attentive to our calls and emails and completed the job promptly. His pricing was very fair, and the cabling looks fantastic. It really opens up the view on our deck. Paul does quality work, and I would recommend his work to anyone.

Mark G. Lake Maspenock

This is our 16th summer on the lake and after your work, it feels like a whole new view has been opened up for us. 


We really appreciate the craftsmanship and quality of the job too. The house has a whole new look and feel from both the deck and the water, as we’ve already gotten a number of compliments from passing boats. 


I hope more lake front livers take advantage of what you do!

Big shout out to Paul Phillipps at deck cabling!  He did a fantastic job and completely changed the exterior look of our house. He’s professional and flexible and we would highly recommend!

For Realtors

Increase the Curb Appeal and Value of your listings

Are you listing a property that looks a little run down, and has an old wooden deck? Consider suggesting to the seller that upgrading the deck with stainless steel deck cabling is a great way to enhance the property, and make a better impression on buyers, as well as increasing the value. If the property is waterfront, this is a must!

If you're representing the buyer, have them picture themselves sitting on the deck and being able to see through the cable, and really enjoy their beautiful view.

For Contractors
