Decks & Pergolas in East Gippsland
Timber and composite decks, flat-roof and pitched pergolas, and full deck replacements. Built from our Bairnsdale base for homes from Sale to Lakes Entrance, with one builder on the job from the first look to the last board.
Outdoor Living
Built for Living
A deck is only as good as the frame under it, and a pergola is only as good as the way it meets the house. We build both in timber or composite, set out level and fixed properly, for East Gippsland's hot summers, wet winters and the salt air around the lakes.
- Timber and composite decking options
- Custom pergola design and construction
- Outdoor entertaining and alfresco areas
- Repairs, restoring and refinishing existing decks
- Old decks pulled up and rebuilt, posts and frame included
What We Build
Outdoor Spaces Done Right
Custom Decking
Choose from timber or composite decking to suit your budget and style. We build decks that are level, sturdy and finished to a high standard.
Pergola Construction
From flat-roof designs to traditional pitched pergolas, we build structures that provide shade and shelter while complementing your home.
Repairs & Refinishing
Bring your existing deck back to life with repairs, sanding, staining and refinishing. We restore weathered timber to look and feel like new.

What People Ask Us to Build
Each of these has come through our own enquiry form. If your job sounds like one of them, it is one we have already thought through.
A Low Deck Off the Back Door
A deck that steps straight out of the living area, half a metre or so off the ground, big enough for a table and a barbecue. At that height the airflow under the boards and the step down to the yard matter as much as the decking itself, so we plan both before anything is cut.
Timber Over a Cracked Concrete Porch
Tiles laid over cracked concrete tend to show the cracks again before long. Decking laid on a low-profile frame over the slab avoids that, lets water drain away underneath, and turns a tired porch into somewhere you want to sit.
Replacing an Old Deck, Posts and All
When the boards have gone soft the posts and bearers usually have too, and new boards on an old frame only hide the problem. We take the old deck out, check the footings and rebuild the frame first, including under an existing verandah roof.
A Roofed Pergola Over the Back
Shade over the back patio is the usual starting point, and a solid roof is what keeps the space in use once autumn arrives. Flat-roof designs are built with enough fall to shed water, and pitched designs are tied into the existing roofline so they look like part of the house.

Common Questions
Deck & Pergola FAQ
Which towns do you build decks and pergolas in?
We are based in Bairnsdale and build across East Gippsland: Bairnsdale, Lucknow, Eagle Point, Paynesville, Nicholson, Metung, Lakes Entrance, Lindenow, Stratford and Sale. If you are outside those towns, call anyway and we will tell you straight whether we can take it on.
Timber or composite: which should I choose?
Composite is the low-upkeep option. The boards hold their colour and need little more than a wash, and it is what went into the waterfront deck in Paynesville pictured above. Timber costs less to build and suits an older home, but it needs re-oiling to keep looking its best. We are happy to price both side by side.
Do I need a building permit for a deck or pergola?
Some do and some do not. It depends mainly on how high the deck sits, how big it is, and whether a pergola is roofed and attached to the house. We will tell you at the quote whether yours needs one, so it is planned for from the start rather than found out halfway through.
Can you build a deck over an existing concrete slab?
Usually, yes. A low-profile frame lifts the boards clear of the concrete so water can run away underneath, and the cracks in the slab stay hidden for good. The height to the door threshold is the first thing to check, and we measure it when we come out to quote.
