Merbau Decking
Decking Central Coast’s most in-demand timber is Merbau, and it is for a good reason. This is why many of our clients request Merbau decking, and we absolutely agree. If you’re looking into building a deck for your pool or garden area, this is one great option you should consider.
Merbau is known for its resistance to fire. Australia is no stranger to bushfires and so having a fire-resistant deck would be an excellent choice for any homeowner. Also, it wouldn’t hurt to have this feature if you frequently enjoy barbecues with your family on your deck. Merbau is also a high-quality type of timber that has low shrinkage and expansion rates. This could only mean that your deck will still look lovely and stay sturdy for so many years compared to other timber types.
The grain pattern and deep copper colour of Merbau is also a sight to behold. Using this type of timber combined with Decking Central Coast’s expert workmanship can guarantee a beautiful, long-lasting deck.
Merbau timber ideally requires some maintenance and yearly resurfacing. Deck staining to maintain its charming colour may also be necessary. That shouldn’t worry you though because the Decking Central Coast team is here to assist you with your repair and maintenance needs.

Spotted Gum Decking
Another popular choice in decking timber is Spotted Gum. This Australian hardwood material is naturally beautiful, and you can choose from a variety of shades from pale to dark brown. It also has some wavy grain that makes for an even more attractive decking appearance.
Just the same as Merbau, Spotted Gum has a naturally fire-retardant feature. It means that it can survive bush fires as one of the most challenging and most durable timber types you can find in New South Wales. With regular and proper maintenance, you can expect your Spotted Gum decking from Decking Central Coast to last for decades!

Jarrah Decking
Although Jarrah is originally sourced from Western Australia, many New South Wales homeowners still choose Jarrah for their decking needs. Also, fire-resistant, Jarrah’s dense wood properties make it an excellent outdoor choice as it also resists pests and fungi that may result in premature rotting.
Also, Jarrah works with stains and oils very well as compared to Merbau timber. Although naturally appealing and attractive, this type of wood does not last as long as other styles like the Ironbark. It requires regular maintenance to keep it beautiful and sturdy for years.

Blackbutt Decking
If you’re looking for golden-yellow shades to pale brown colours for your outdoor decking, then Blackbutt timber would be perfect for you. Its strength and long-lasting durability are truly admirable, which makes it the ideal choice for pool decks.
The straight grain and texture of Blackbutt decking timber make it a good option for flooring too. It takes stains and oils very well as compared to other timber types.

Ironbark Decking
Ironbark is a native Australian timber and is undoubtedly one of the toughest types of hardwood choices you have for decking. Many of Decking Central Coast’s clients choose Ironbark because of its durability that stands the test of time.
Bushfire-resistant and naturally pleasing to the eyes, there’s simply nothing more you can ask for in Ironbark decking. You can choose from a variety of colour options, including shades of red and grey.

Deck Maintenance
Decking Central Coast builds high-quality decks with beauty and durability that last for decades. However, every homeowner who has ever had an outdoor wooden deck knows that these decks need some care too. We have a deck maintenance team that’s ready to help out.
Being exposed to Australia’s scorching heat and some rains can take its toll on decking timber. Although most of the decks we build are generally low-maintenance, being exposed to outdoor elements can result in wearing out and make the quality of timber deteriorate over time. Maintenance is necessary not only for aesthetic purposes but also for your safety.
Whether you’re looking for simple repairs or full deck restorations, our team is here to assist you. There are handymen and general builders out there, but nothing beats the quality of service you can get from decking experts. At Decking Central Coast, we will visit your location, inspect the deck, and recommend appropriate maintenance methods to bring your deck back to life.
From sanding to resurfacing to staining and even deck board, stairs, and railing repairs and replacements, we’ll handle it all for you.
