Decks from the Ground Up
Decks are very versatile. In fact, they are so versatile they are even installed over existing concrete or pavers and sloping ground.
This means an unused part of your backyard turns into a stylish feature of your home! It is a great way to add value to your property. In fact, it is almost like adding a new room.
At All Decked Out we understand that every property is unique. That’s why we always take into account any unique features when designing your new deck.
Deck Railings & Balustrades
If you require railings or balustrades, we can easily incorporate them into the design of your new deck. They are usually required when the decking is above the ground and needed for safety. This is especially true if you have children or pets.
A large variety of styles for balustrades exist to complement decks. This includes steel wire, glass and timber. For the best finish it is recommended that you integrate them into the design of the deck when it is first constructed. By doing this you improve the structural integrity of your new deck.
However, if needed, balustrades are also able to be added to your deck at a later stage.

Deck Stairs & Ramps
If your deck is on a slope or raised off the ground, you will most likely require stairs or ramps so that you can gain access to your deck from your garden.
However, there is no need o compromise on the style of your deck just because steps or ramps are required.
There are many options available – whether you only one or two steps or quite a few because your deck has been built on a sloping piece of ground.
Decks & Obstructions
Often a deck is added to an existing home to enhance an outdoor living experience. When this happens, sometimes a unique solution is required for an unusual situation.
For example, you may have a large tree that you want to retain as it provides shade in the summer but it is in the middle of where you want to build your deck!
At All Decked Out this is not a problem as we will custom design the deck so a tree (or whatever else may be causing the obstacle) is turned into a feature.

Timber Selection
A quality deck is functional, as well as visually attractive. In addition, it enhances both your outdoor living experience and the value of your home. The following is a selection of the type of timbers that are popular for decking:
Most decks are made from hardwood although modern composites and, treated pine are also used. Merbau is by far the timber of choice for decking in Melbourne and surrounding suburbs, but there are many other choices available as well. Selecting the right timber for your new deck for Melbourne’s varying harsh climate is important.
For more information on specific timbers the following websites offer in depth information on various timbers and their best uses:

Style of Decking
Most decks are built using 90mm boards 19mm in height with 4mm spacing between boards, but you are not limited to this sizing. Decking boards come in different widths and are fastened to joists. Normally the boards join end on end and are staggered to prevent seems from becoming too distinct.
At All Decked Out we can custom design your decking to create the style that is just right for your home.
Decking Finishes
Staining – if you are looking for a specific colour for your new deck, timber stains provide the solution without hiding the natural grain of the wood.
When staining timber, remember that all stains will darken the timber’s colour. This means selecting a timber with a naturally lighter colouring will often produce the best results.
Stains are not a weather proofing solution, so if you are oiling your deck for weather protection purposes, be aware that the oil will often darken the colour too.
Decking Oil
New decks are left untreated for several weeks for it to adapt and weather. However, if the timber is left untreated for an extended time weather and regular usage will take its toll.
Oiling the timber seals the timber’s surface against the worst effects of continual usage and weather. For best results, oiling yearly is recommended.
All Decked Out offers an Oiling Service, where we revitalise your deck on an annual basis to ensure it is constantly looking at its best.
