Gone grey and splintery? Boards splitting, nails popping, a step that moves when you stand on it? You might not need a new deck — a lot of tired decks just need bringing back to life. We'll tell you honestly which yours needs.
Most of this is fixable — often for a fraction of a full rebuild.
Check the frame, piles and fixings, and make sure it's structurally sound and safe.
Swap out split, rotten or cupped boards, re-fix loose ones, and firm up wobbly steps and rails.
Strip back the grey, wash off mould and mildew, and sand it smooth and splinter-free.
Fresh oil or stain to bring back the colour and protect it against the Auckland weather.
We'll always give you the honest answer — sometimes a restore is money well spent, sometimes you're better off starting fresh.
The frame, bearers and piles are still solid, and it's mainly the surface boards and finish that have had it. Great value, quick turnaround, and it looks brand new.
The structure underneath is rotten or undersized, the layout no longer suits you, or you'd be spending good money patching a deck that's near the end. Then our 24 Hour Deck is the better call.
Send a couple of photos and your details — we'll tell you honestly whether it's a restore or a rebuild, and roughly what it'd cost.
