Decking, Patios
& Pergolas

Brought back. Not replaced.

Perth weather is hard on outdoor timber. Boards lift, fixings back out, ends split, and the whole thing greys off. Most decks that look finished are not — they need repair and restoration, not replacement.

Deck and outdoor timber work

01

Board replacement

Split, rotted or cupped boards swapped out and matched to the existing timber as closely as we can source.

02

Re-fixing and screwing down

Lifted boards and backed-out nails refixed properly, usually screwed rather than re-nailed so it stays down.

03

Sanding and re-oiling

Grey, weathered decks sanded back and re-oiled. The difference is dramatic and far cheaper than a rebuild.

04

Pergolas and patios

Repairs to posts, beams and roofing. Rusted post bases, damaged sheeting, and structures that need making safe.

05

Balustrades and steps

Loose or damaged balustrade sections, and steps that have moved or rotted.

06

Sealing and waterproofing

Balconies that pool water and damage the rooms below — sealed properly to stop it.

When repair beats replacement

01

Most decks are salvageable

If the frame is sound, replacing a handful of boards and re-oiling gets you years more life at a fraction of a rebuild.

02

We check the frame first

There is no point restoring boards sitting on a failing frame. We look underneath before quoting the top.

03

Honest about the ones that aren't

If the substructure is gone, we will tell you it needs rebuilding rather than sell you a restoration that fails.

Common questions

Straight answers.

My deck has gone grey. Is it ruined?

Almost certainly not. Greying is surface UV damage. Sanding back and re-oiling usually restores it completely, provided the timber itself is sound.

Can you match old decking boards?

Usually close, rarely perfect. New timber will be lighter than weathered boards until it ages in. If an exact match matters, an oil or stain over the whole deck evens it out.

How often should a deck be re-oiled?

In Perth conditions, every one to two years for exposed decks. A deck that is never oiled will need boards replaced far sooner.

Do you repair patio roofs?

Yes — sheeting, flashings and minor structural repairs. Anything needing an engineer or a registered builder we will flag and refer.
