At All Decked Out, we specialise in custom pool decks across Melbourne. Whether you’re installing a brand new swimming pool or replacing an old deck, we build stylish and durable decks for both inground and above ground pools.
We offer a choice of high quality timber decking and composite decking, so you can select the look and feel that best suits your pool area. Both options are designed to enhance the appearance and usability of your outdoor space, creating the perfect spot to relax, entertain, and enjoy Melbourne’s warm weather.
No two pools – or pool areas – are the same. That’s why we take a tailored approach to every project. A well designed pool deck not only improves safety and accessibility but also gives you room to make the most of your backyard. Add sun loungers, outdoor dining furniture, or built in bench seating with storage to create a space that’s both functional and beautiful.
With years of experience and a strong reputation as trusted pool deck builders in Melbourne, All Decked Out can help you transform your outdoor area with a deck that complements your pool and lifestyle.

Composite Pool Decks Melbourne
Composite decking is a popular option for decking around pools. Some of the reasons for this include:
- Anti slip making it great around wet areas like swimming pools and spas
- Cooler underfoot on hot sunny days when you are more likely to be using your pool
- Moisture resistant meaning that water on the surface of the pool deck evaporates quickly
- No chance of splinters. This is especially important as most people are barefoot around swimming pools
- Easy to maintain so you can spend more time enjoying your swimming pool

Timber Pool Decks Melbourne
For some, nothing replaces the look and feel of traditional timber. That’s why timber pool decks have remained a popular choice for many Melbourne homeowners. However, it is very important that you choose your timber carefully so that it will last.
Merbau and Spotted Gum are just two types of timber that will stand up to the harsh conditions of Melbourne’s summer days.
Some of the reasons for choosing timber decking include:
- Timber, even when around a swimming pool, is very durable
- Gaps between the timber boards allows for drainage of water. This protects the boards and prevents slipping from puddles
- Visually appealing. Natural timber decking always look great and will enhance the value of your home
- Regular maintenance means your timber pool deck will look its best for years to come

Swimming Pool Fences Melbourne
As well as thinking of the best type of pool deck for your swimming pool, you also need to consider what sort of fence you want.
At All Decked Out we also install swimming pool fences. This includes frameless glass pool fences and semi frameless glass pool fences. We also install privacy screens. This is an increasingly popular option as our backyards get smaller and neighbours look over our properties. If you are looking to add an outdoor living room, alfresco kitchen or even an outdoor fireplace we can assist with that too!

Design Elements to Think About for Your Pool Deck
Material Selection: Choose a decking material that’s suitable for wet areas. Timber decking gives a warm, natural finish, while composite decking is durable, low-maintenance and moisture resistant. Whichever option you go with, make sure the surface offers good slip resistance.
Pool Safety Compliance: All swimming pools in Victoria require a compliant safety barrier. Your deck design must allow for fencing that meets regulations – this includes fence height and self closing gates. Avoid placing furniture or features too close to the pool fence.
Drainage and Ventilation: Proper drainage around the pool is essential to prevent pooling water and slippery surfaces.
Functionality and Layout: Consider how you plan to use your pool area. Allow enough room for walking space, seating, and shade. Built in benches or planter boxes can add functionality without cluttering the area.
Integration with Landscaping: Your pool deck should work in harmony with the rest of your garden. Think about how it connects with paths, garden beds, and lawn areas to create a unified outdoor living space.
Choosing the Right Pool Fence: A well-chosen swimming pool fence ensures safety without compromising on style. Popular options include frameless and semi-frameless glass fences. The fence should not only meet legal standards but also blend well with your decking and overall backyard design.
