Deck Design
Precision Decking creates tailored timber deck designs that integrate seamlessly with your property. Our process includes free initial consultations, 3D visualisations, and council-compliant plans to ensure functional, aesthetically pleasing outdoor spaces. With over 30 years of experience, we specialise in crafting durable, low-maintenance decks using premium materials suited to Sydney's coastal environment.
Pergola Construction
We design and build custom pergolas that enhance outdoor living areas while providing weather protection. Our structures feature reinforced timber framing, UV-resistant finishes, and optional integrated lighting or screening solutions. Each project includes detailed planning, council submissions, and guaranteed compliance with local building regulations for lasting structural integrity.
Deck Repairs
Our repair specialists address all timber deck damage, from minor wear to major structural issues. Services include rot replacement, balustrade upgrades, and protective coating applications. We use matching materials and techniques to maintain original aesthetics while restoring safety and functionality, with post-service maintenance advice included.
Council Submissions
Precision Decking manages complete council approval processes for deck projects. We prepare detailed engineering plans, submit documentation to Northern Beaches Councils, and handle all communication to secure permits. This service ensures compliance with Australian Standards and local development regulations while saving clients time and administrative burden.
Pool Deck Installation
We construct non-slip, weather-resistant pool decks using marine-grade timber and modern sealing technologies. Designs incorporate safety barriers, drainage solutions, and seamless transitions to pool coping. Each installation follows strict safety codes while creating cohesive outdoor entertaining areas that complement existing architecture.
