Deck Building
A new deck or replacement deck needs a clear brief around size, height, materials and how it connects to the home and garden.
When to ask for help
- You want more usable outdoor living space or an existing deck has deteriorated.
- A renovation changes access from the house to the outdoor area.
What to include in your job post
- Share a simple sketch, approximate dimensions, photos and your preferred deck material if known.
- Describe the site slope, existing deck and any stairs, balustrades or built-in features.
What can affect the scope
- Ground conditions, height, access and demolition can affect construction.
- The project may need consent or design input depending on its specific design; ask the tradie to explain what applies.
