A one-day build isn't rushed — it's planned to the hour. Most of the work happens before we even turn up. Here's exactly what goes on, and why it means a better result for you.
The reason we can build in a day is that the thinking, measuring and buying is all done first. By build morning, there are no decisions left to make — just building.
We agree the size, layout, decking and finish with you up front — and you see it drawn to scale before anything is ordered.
Every board, pile, bearer and box of fixings is measured off a cut list and picked up in advance, so nothing holds the day up.
Pile positions and heights are worked out to NZS 3604 beforehand, so the frame goes down fast and dead level.
We confirm access, ground, services and the finished height with you, so there are no surprises on the morning.
Fixings, edge style (like a picture-frame border), stain and finish are all decided with you before the day.
Timber and gear are loaded and ready, so we're on the tools from the moment we arrive — not at the yard.
A time-blocked ~14-hour day. Every block has a job and a finish line, which is how a whole deck gets done start-to-finish without cutting corners.
Unload, protect the site and mark out the deck exactly. Get it dead accurate now — everything else follows these lines.
Piles set and levelled — Nurajack pedestals or timber piles in concrete, depending on the site. Planned and set out first, so the frame goes straight on top.
The structural frame goes down and gets squared and levelled. This is the bit that makes a deck last — we take the time here.
Every fixing, hanger and level double-checked before a single board goes on. Catch anything now, not after it's covered.
Quick break, and we lay out the decking run. A planned board layout means no ugly joins.
Boards fixed with consistent gaps and the right screws for the timber. The part you see every day — done neat and straight.
Fascia and the picture-frame border if you've chosen one. The finishing touches that make it look built-in, not bolted on.
Last fixings in, sharp edges eased, everything gone over. Safe underfoot and nice to the touch.
Offcuts and rubbish taken away, site left tidy, and we walk the finished deck with you. You start and end the day with a clean yard — and a deck you can use tonight.
One big day and we're gone — not two weeks of a half-built deck and a mess in your yard.
Because it's all planned first, the price is agreed up front. No day-rate creep, no surprises.
One crew, one flow, full focus — the deck is built as one continuous piece of work, the way it should be.
