All Decked Out are one of the best pool deck builders in Melbourne’s Eastern suburbs. As we specialise in building decks for both in ground pools as well as above ground pools we know we can help you with your new pool deck. In addition, we not only build decks for new swimming pools but also replace decks for existing pools.
You can choose to have your pool decking in either timber decking or composite decking. Both are a great choice and will enhance the look and feel of your swimming pool.
Not only is every swimming pool different but the area surrounding is as well. A deck around your pool gives you space to really enjoy your time outdoors in your leafy Eastern suburb’s backyard. You can even add sun loungers, a dining table and chairs, or even bench seating as a clever way to provide storage.

Composite Pool Decks Eastern Suburbs of Melbourne
The use of composite decking around pools in homes in Melbourne’s Eastern suburbs is becoming increasingly popular. This is because composite pool decking offers both style and practicality for family-friendly outdoor spaces. This includes:
- Slip-resistant finish, keeping wet areas around pools and spas safe
- Remains cooler underfoot during hot summer days, ideal for barefoot walking
- Moisture-resistant, so water drains and evaporates quickly, preventing damage
- Splinter-free surface, ensuring a safe space for kids and adults alike
- Minimal upkeep required, letting you spend more time enjoying your poolside retreat

Timber Pool Decks Melbourne Eastern Suburbs
For many homeowners in Melbourne’s Eastern suburbs, timber decking brings a timeless warmth and natural beauty to any pool area. Timber pool decks are a popular choice, but selecting the right species is essential to ensure durability and long-lasting performance.
Merbau and Spotted Gum are excellent options, designed to withstand Melbourne’s sun, rain, and seasonal variations with ease.
Key advantages of timber decking for your poolside include:
- High durability, even when exposed to water and heavy poolside use
- Board gaps that allow effective drainage, reducing puddles and slip risks
- Natural aesthetic appeal that enhances your backyard and adds property value
- With proper maintenance, timber decks can stay beautiful and functional for many years

Swimming Pool Fences Melbourne Eastern Suburbs
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. Better still, we specialise in installing pool fences in Melbourne’s Eastern suburbs.
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.
