Timber vs Composite Decking
Choosing the right decking material depends on your budget, maintenance preferences, and the look you want. We build in both timber and composite and can help you choose the best option for your home.
Timber Decking
Timber is a great option if you want a natural, premium finish with warmth and character. Popular hardwood options include Merbau, Blackbutt, and Spotted Gum.
Best for: Natural appearance, premium finish, traditional or high-end homes.
Keep in mind: Timber needs regular maintenance such as cleaning and oiling.
Composite Decking
Composite decking is ideal if you want a low-maintenance outdoor area with a consistent look. It’s a strong option for busy households and homeowners who want less upkeep over time.
Best for: Low maintenance, modern outdoor areas, long-term convenience.
Keep in mind: Product quality varies, and correct installation is critical.

Our Deck Building Process
1. Site Visit and Quote
We inspect your site, discuss your goals, and provide a clear quote based on layout, materials, access, and build requirements.
2. Layout and Material Selection
We help finalise the shape, size, board style, stairs, edging, and whether timber or composite is the best fit for your home.
3. Approvals and Compliance (if required)
Some deck projects need approval depending on height, size, and site conditions. We guide you on what applies so there are no surprises.
4. Construction
We build with a focus on structural quality, neat detailing, code compliance, and a tidy worksite.
5. Final Handover
We walk through the completed deck with you and make sure everything is finished properly and ready to use.

Common Questions About Building a Deck in Sydney
How much does a deck cost in Sydney?
Deck pricing depends on size, height, materials, site access, and extras like stairs, screens, pergolas, or balustrades. The best way to get an accurate price is a site visit and quote.
How long does it take to build a deck?
Smaller decks can take a few days, while larger or more complex builds can take longer, especially if approvals are required. We’ll give you a realistic timeline before work starts.
Do I need council approval for a deck?
Sometimes. It depends on the height, size, location, and site conditions of the deck. Approval requirements can vary, so we’ll help you understand what applies to your project and the best path forward.
Is composite decking better than timber?
It depends on your priorities. Timber gives a natural, premium look. Composite is lower maintenance and more convenient. We can help you choose the best option for your home and budget.
Can you build a deck and pergola together?
Yes. We regularly build integrated outdoor spaces that include decking, pergolas, and related features so the area works as one finished space.
Do you replace old decks?
Yes. We can inspect your existing deck and recommend whether a repair or full rebuild is the better option based on its condition.
