Services
Decks
We design and construct custom timber and composite decks tailored to Canberra's climate. Using premium materials like merbau hardwood and treated pine, our decks combine aesthetic appeal with durability against extreme weather. Each project includes structural engineering, council approvals, and lifetime maintenance guidance.
Pergolas
Our pergolas feature Colorbond, polycarbonate, or insulated roofing systems with optional ceiling linings. Available in gable, hip, or skillion designs, these structures provide weather protection while enhancing property value. We offer powder-coated steel frames in custom colors for modern architectural integration.
Composite Decking
Ecodeck and Modwood composite materials replicate timber aesthetics without maintenance requirements. These recycled plastic-timber hybrids resist fading, termites, and moisture damage. Our installations use concealed Kleva Klips fastening systems for seamless surfaces with commercial anti-slip ratings.
Handrails
We supply and install safety-compliant handrails for decks, pools, and staircases. Material options include stainless steel wire, glass panels, powder-coated aluminium, and termite-resistant hardwoods. Designs meet Australian safety standards while complementing architectural styles.
Privacy Screens
Custom-designed screens using timber, metal, or composite materials solve visibility issues while adding visual interest. Our solutions address Canberra homeowners' needs for wind protection, noise reduction, and property boundary definition through functional yet decorative installations.
