Decking
There is something about stepping out onto a well-built timber deck that changes the way you use your home. It becomes the place where morning coffees happen, where the kids play after school, where summer dinners stretch long into the evening. A good deck is not just an addition to your house. It becomes the heart of how your family lives outdoors.
Lucas has been building decks across Melbourne for over 15 years. He started his career framing townhouses and running carpentry crews, and over time he found his way back to what he loves most: working with quality timber, one project at a time, for homeowners who care about getting it right. His favourite timber is Ironbark, but he works across the full range of hardwoods, softwoods, composites, and PVC to match each project's needs and budget.
Every deck we build starts with a proper site assessment. We look at the fall of the land, the soil conditions, how the space connects to the house, and how you actually want to use it. From there, we put together a design and quote that covers everything, no hidden costs and no surprises halfway through the build. Whether it is a simple ground-level platform or a multi-level entertainer with stairs, lighting, and integrated seating, the standard of workmanship stays the same.
We work with merbau, spotted gum, jarrah, treated pine, composite boards, and PVC decking. Each material has its strengths, and we will walk you through the pros and cons so you can make the right call for your lifestyle and Melbourne's climate. We also handle deck repairs, sanding, and re-oiling for existing decks that need some attention.

Our Process
Get In Touch
Give us a call or fill out the contact form. Tell us a bit about what you are after and we will organise a time to come out.
Site Visit & Measure Up
We visit your property to measure the space, assess the conditions, and talk through your ideas. This is where we get a proper understanding of the project.
Detailed Quote
We put together a clear, itemised quote covering materials, labour, and any permits. No guesswork, no ballpark figures.
Booking & Materials
Once you accept the quote, we lock in a start date and order materials. A deposit secures your spot and covers material costs. We discuss payment terms during the quoting process.
The Build
We get to work. Throughout the build, we keep you informed, take progress photos, and clean the site at the end of every day.
Walkthrough & Handover
When the deck is finished, we walk through it together to make sure you are completely happy. Then we follow up a week later to check in.
