    • How do I look after composite decking?

      One of the best things about Modwood Composite Decking is that it requires almost no maintenance! Built by certified decking contractors, there's no sanding, oiling, painting, staining or splinters - simply sweep with a broom to remove dust, or hose with your garden hose. To manage a really grubby deck, a little dish soap or a mild surfactant and a high pressure washer will have it looking new in no time! Simply ensure you rinse well after cleaning to avoid any remaining cleaning product residue leaving the surface slippery. 

    • How do I maintain my Timber Decking?

      Keeping your wooden decking clean and well maintained will extend its lifespan and ensure your outdoor space looks beautiful for longer.

      Keeping your deck clean is the first step of maintaining your deck. After a good clean, and a rinse to ensure there is no residue of cleaning products remaining on the surface. Allow the decking to dry completely before sparingly applying a coat of the decking oil of your choice; you can apply by wiping on with a clean, microfibre cloth or a decking oil applicator. Allow the oil to dry before applying a second coat if necessary. 

    • How do I clean my Timber Deck?

      Keeping your Timber Deck clean and well-maintained is an important part of ensuring the longevity of your decking. There are two ways to clean a timber deck- You can use warm, soapy water, a soft broom and some good old fashioned elbow grease, or you can use a power washer to cut through dirt and build up.

    • What types of timber do you use to built Timber Decks?

      Australian Outdoor Living uses only FSC certified, sustainably sourced timbers. 

      We currently offer five different types of timber: Merbau, Kapur, ACQ clear pine, Forest Red and Spotted Gum; each with their own unique appearance and qualities.  We also offer a unique, recycled wood composite decking called ModWood, which is even more environmentally friendly.

      Our timber decking frames are built using pine that has been treated to withstand insects, moisture and wood rot. Our experienced design consultants will be happy to recommend the perfect timber to suit your home, lifestyle and needs. You can also head over to our Handy Info to learn about the benefits of each, as well as find out which one might be best for your home.

    • How long does it take to install a Timber Deck?

      The time required for building a deck can vary, depending on a number of factors.

      If your deck is less than 500mm off the ground, council approval isn’t required, and most installations typically take just 3-4 weeks from initial consultation through to completion.

      However, if your deck needs to be taller than 500mm, we will require council approval- In this case installations can take up to 8-10 weeks from initial consultation through to completion.

    • How much does it cost to install a Timber Deck?

      As all of our Outdoor Structures are custom made to perfectly suit your home and style, it is impossible to give an accurate price guide. Variables such as the size and style of your decking, as well as the ease of access to your space, can all affect the overall cost of your new structure. 

      A design consultant can guide you through our range of options to help determine the best outcome for home, budget and lifestyle -and offer you a quote accurate to your personal project. For more information or to book your FREE, in-home design consultation.
