We wanted to wait a few months before posting a review to see if any problems came up with the new deck. Very pleased to say there have been NO problems at all. DeKing Decks did a great job. Roly was patient and flexible when doing the quote; Antony managed the project very well and was always available by phone; and Andrew did a great job dismantling the old deck and building the new one – keeping the site very clean and everything on schedule and on budget. Would definitely recommend DeKing Decks! ~ Duncan Macintosh, Brisbane – Google Reviews
Choosing the best deck type depends on your block’s slope, soil type, existing house style, and how you plan to use the space. A site inspection by an experienced builder like DeKing Decks helps identify whether a raised, ground-level, cantilevered, or freestanding deck will work best while complying with local council regulations and maximising usable space.
Costs vary based on height (ground-level vs elevated), size, materials (hardwood, treated pine, or composite), and whether you add roofing or stairs. Steeper sites or decks requiring extra engineering for height and wind loading in Brisbane’s climate generally cost more, while simpler ground-level designs tend to be more budget-friendly.
Yes, most homes in Brisbane can accommodate a new deck through careful design. Options like wrap-around decks, entryway decks, or freestanding structures often integrate seamlessly with minimal disruption to your house. Discussing your goals early allows the builder to design around existing footings, drainage, and access points.
Certain deck styles, such as wrap-around or multi-level pool surrounds, are popular in Queensland because they create safe, usable space right beside the water. Key considerations include non-slip surfaces, proper drainage, and materials that handle constant moisture and pool chemicals while blending naturally with your landscaping.
Timelines vary from a few days for small ground-level decks to several weeks for larger elevated or complex designs that include roofing or custom features. Factors like site access, weather during the wet season, and council approvals can influence the schedule. DeKing Decks works closely with clients to provide realistic timeframes from quote to completion.
