Durable, Modern, Easy
Composite Decking
Composite decking offers a low-maintenance, long-lasting alternative to traditional timber. Made from recycled wood fibres and plastic, it resists fading, warping, splintering and pests—perfect for families, poolside areas and those who want the look of wood without the upkeep. While the upfront cost can be higher, you’ll save time and money long-term with minimal maintenance needs. It’s also available in a range of modern tones and textures to suit different design aesthetics.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the best timber for decking in Australia?
Australia’s climate can be harsh, so choosing the right timber is key. Hardwoods like Merbau, Spotted Gum and Blackbutt are popular because they’re durable, termite-resistant and visually appealing. They perform well in outdoor settings and age beautifully when maintained. For more affordable options, treated pine is a solid choice—it’s easy to work with and widely available. Always consider your location, budget and how much maintenance you’re willing to do before deciding.
How long does timber decking last?
With proper care and maintenance, timber decking can last anywhere from 10 to 30 years. Hardwood decking generally lasts longer due to its density and resistance to wear and pests. Regular sealing, oiling, and cleaning will significantly extend the life of your deck, especially in coastal environments like the Central Coast. Choosing high-quality, treated timber and installing it correctly is equally important for longevity.
Is timber decking high maintenance?
Compared to composite materials, timber decking does require more upkeep—but it rewards you with a natural, rich look that many homeowners love. Maintenance usually includes oiling or sealing the surface every 6–12 months, and keeping it clean of dirt and debris. If you’re time-poor or prefer a “set and forget” option, composite decking may be better suited. But for those who enjoy the process, timber can be well worth the effort.
Can I install timber decking myself?
Yes, many homeowners tackle decking projects themselves, especially with softwood or modular systems. That said, working with hardwood requires the right tools and experience, as it’s denser and harder to cut. Always check local council guidelines, use appropriate fixings and ensure you’re working with level ground or supports. For bigger or elevated decks, it’s wise to consult a builder or use professional help to meet safety codes.
