Why Composite Outperforms Timber

Composite decking is made from recycled plastic and natural wood fibres — engineered to deliver the warmth and beauty of timber without any of the ongoing maintenance demands.

25-Year Warranty

Full residential warranty on every composite board — genuine manufacturer backing against fading, staining and structural failure. Timber can't offer this.

Zero Maintenance

No sanding, sealing, oiling or painting — ever. A rinse with the garden hose is genuinely all it takes. Year after year after year.

Water & Rot Resistant

Composite boards won't absorb moisture, swell, rot or crack — even in Melbourne's wet winters, poolside, or exposed coastal environments.

UV Colour Stability

Colour-stabilised surface coating resists fading from harsh Australian sun. Your deck looks as good in year ten as it did on installation day.

Eco-Responsible

Made from recycled plastics and natural wood fibres — reduces demand for virgin timber and requires no ongoing chemical treatments across its lifespan.

Metal Fast Clip Fixing

Most composite decking systems — including the big-name brands — fix boards with plastic clips. Ours are concealed metal clips: stronger grip, no creep, and a perfect, uniform 5mm gap between every board that stays that way. No visible screws, ever.

Elevated Build Standard™

What Separates a Quality Deck from a Cheaper One

Two composite deck quotes can look the same on paper and produce very different results on the ground. The difference is almost always in the structural work — the substructure, the framing, and the installation methodology — not in the boards themselves.

The Elevated Build Standard™ defines the structural requirements we apply to every project. It's why our decks still look and perform exactly as expected years after installation, when cheaper builds start showing their problems.

Why quotes vary — what to look for →
Laminated Structural Framing We build the substructure from laminated treated framing, not single-ply. It carries greater loads, resists twist and provides a more stable base for the boards above — across the full life of the deck.
Joist Protection Tape Applied to the top face of every joist before decking boards are installed. Creates a moisture barrier between the composite board and the timber joist — significantly extending the life of the structure beneath.
Correct Bearer Spacing Joist centres are set to the board manufacturer's specification for that specific collection — not a generic standard. Wrong spacing causes flex underfoot and affects long-term performance.
Concealed Fast Clip Fastening No screws through the face of the board. Every board is fixed via concealed metal Fast Clips — locking to the joist, gripping the board, and maintaining a perfect 5mm gap from end to end. Most installers use plastic clips; metal grips harder and lasts the life of the deck.
Finished Edge Detail Every exposed perimeter edge receives fascia and edging boards matched to the decking colour. No raw substructure visible from outside the deck — a clean, finished appearance from every angle.

Fast Clip — A Superior Fastening System, Not Just Any Hidden Clip

Many composite installers use a standard plastic clip between boards — and while it keeps screws out of sight, plastic clips can be inconsistent. If a clip isn't seated evenly on both sides, the spacing gap shows across the deck. Once the boards are down, it's too late to fix.

We use the Fast Clip — a metal fastening clip with a stainless steel gusset that grips the deck board firmly as it's screwed down, while the joist hook locks in place. The result: a perfectly uniform 5mm gap between every board, on every joist, across the full length of the deck. Tight, even, and built to stay that way.

Decking Accessories

Every edge and corner finished with purpose-made composite accessories — matched in colour to your boards for a seamless, professional result.

Composite Decking Edging Board

Edging Board

5400 × 137 × 23 mm — Co-Extrusion

Caps the cut ends and exposed sides of your deck with a clean, mitred edge. Adds structural strength around the perimeter and gives the deck a refined, finished appearance — available in matching board colours.

Composite Decking Fascia Board

Fascia Board

5400 × 132 × 15 mm — Co-Extrusion

Wraps the visible face of the perimeter frame with a flat composite panel. Conceals the substructure entirely and creates a sleek, enclosed look around the full deck edge — no raw timber visible from outside.

Fast Clip — concealed decking fastening system

Fast Clip

5mm gap — stainless steel — hidden fixing system

Ensures a perfect 5mm gap between every decking board. The stainless steel gusset grips each board firmly while the clip hooks the joist — no shifting boards, no visible screws, no partial installation.

Decking FAQ

The questions most Melbourne homeowners ask before they commit. If yours isn't here, call or email — we're happy to talk it through.

Our composite decking products carry a 25-year residential warranty against fading, staining and structural failure. When installed correctly over a properly engineered substructure, you can realistically expect the deck to outlast that warranty — timber simply cannot match this lifespan without significant ongoing maintenance.

All composite decking absorbs some heat in direct sun — it's a characteristic of the material. Our co-extrusion boards use a lighter-coloured protective coating that reduces surface temperature compared to older-generation composites. In Melbourne's climate, the boards are comfortably walkable in most conditions. Lighter colour choices perform best in full-sun installations, and shade from a pergola above makes a significant difference.

The collections differ primarily in surface texture depth, colour range and finish quality. The Deluxe is our finest-looking board — deep embossed grain, the widest palette, and the best finish. Premium delivers excellent quality at a slightly lower tier. Classic is a reliable entry-level option. Coastal is specifically engineered for salt-air environments near the coast. All collections are installed to exactly the same structural standard — the EBS applies to every project regardless of which collection you choose.

It depends on the deck's height, size and proximity to your property boundary. In Victoria, many ground-level decks under a certain height are exempt from a building permit, but anything above 800mm from ground level or attached to the dwelling typically requires one. We assess permit requirements as part of every site visit and handle the relevant paperwork where needed — it's part of the job, not an add-on.

Yes — composite is one of the best materials for pool surrounds. It won't absorb water, won't rot when consistently wet, and doesn't require the chemical treatments that timber needs in pool environments. Our boards also have a textured, non-slip surface which is an important safety consideration for wet areas. Pool surround installations may have specific slip-resistance requirements — we check this as part of the site assessment.

The Elevated Build Standard™ is the construction methodology we apply to every project. It covers substructure requirements (laminated framing, joist protection tape, correct bearer spacing), board installation (Fast Clip concealed fixing, precise gap control), and finishing (fascia, edging, edge detail). Most of this work is structural and invisible once the deck is down — but it's exactly what determines whether your deck still looks and performs perfectly in fifteen years.

Two composite decks can use identical boards and produce very different results depending on how the substructure is built. The EBS is our answer to that inconsistency.

What Clients Say
Backed by Real Google Reviews
★★★★★

"The composite deck boards were solid and they used metal clips instead of plastic, which stands out from the others. The quote was very detailed and addressed everything we wanted to know. The finishing was more than we expected."

— Wicka, Melbourne
★★★★★

"Once the old boards were removed they discovered the frame needed strengthening — they took the time to add more bearers before installing the new composite decking. Everything feels solid and well built. Adrian explained everything clearly along the way."

— Ian Bennett, Melbourne
★★★★★

"The council inspector attended and commented that both decks and structures were exemplary. We spend more time outside, entertaining, and enjoying the maintenance free area. I am beyond grateful and pleased with the end product."

What Affects the Cost of Your Deck?

Every deck is site-specific. Here's an honest look at what drives the price — so you're prepared before you even pick up the phone.

Ground Level vs Elevated

A ground-level deck costs less than an elevated one — elevated builds require deeper footings, more structural steel, and greater engineering time. The higher the deck, the more significant this cost factor becomes.

Materials & Decking Range

Entry-level composite boards, mid-range profiles, and premium wide-board ranges all have different price points. We'll show you the options on-site so you can choose what fits your budget and aesthetic.

Stairs & Level Changes

Stairs, landings, and level changes are priced separately from the main deck area — they involve additional structural work and finishing. The number of risers and the width of the staircase both affect the cost.

Picture Frame Borders

A picture-frame border adds a premium finish around the perimeter of the deck. It's one of the most popular upgrade options — and it adds to the cost because it requires more precise cutting, mitre joints, and additional boards.

Site Conditions & Access

Difficult site access, steep slopes, rocky or unstable ground, or the need to remove existing structures all affect how long a job takes — and therefore what it costs. This is why we visit every site before quoting.

Size & Complexity

Larger decks have a lower cost per square metre than small ones. Irregular shapes, built-in seating, lighting channels, or integrated planters all add to the complexity and time involved in the build.

Every quote is site-specific — and that's a good thing.

We don't publish fixed prices because an honest quote needs to account for your actual site conditions, your materials, and exactly what you want built. What we can promise: your quote will be detailed, itemised, and free of hidden extras.
