Timber decks built for the Northern Beaches lifestyle
A deck is where you come to relax and unwind after a busy day, kick back with a chair and a glass of wine. It's also a great place to eat and entertain with family and friends.
Treated pine decks
Carefully planned and built, a deck is a great addition to any backyard. Treated pine is the most economical option and great for families wanting minimal fuss. Many people add a coat of paint to tie in with the house or their favourite colour, which also extends the life of the timber, already a generous 20 years or so.
Hardwood and tiled decks
Australian hardwood decks cost more (usually around double, due to the timber price and extra labour), but they are a great investment. Their natural tones and grain tie in beautifully with the landscape. Quality imported timbers are also available at similar prices.
For a more solid look, a tiled deck uses the same timber frame, but instead of decking boards we lay compressed fibre-cement sheet and tile over it. That opens up more finishes: pavers, tiles or natural stone.

Decks FAQs
Is hardwood decking worth the extra cost?
For most Northern Beaches homes, yes. Hardwood is roughly double the cost of treated pine but is harder-wearing, looks beautiful oiled and suits the natural landscape. Treated pine is a sound budget choice, especially if you plan to paint it.
How long does a timber deck last?
A well-built treated pine deck lasts around 20 years, and hardwood can last longer with regular oiling. Good ventilation and drainage under the deck are key to a long life.
Can you tile over a timber deck?
Yes. We build the frame to suit, lay compressed fibre-cement sheet with waterproofing, then tile or lay stone on top for a solid, low-maintenance finish.
