Decking services: new decks, external stairs & restoration | Deck Hero

Services

What we do

Custom external decks and stairs are our speciality, alongside glass balustrades and restoration. We design, build and (where it’s needed) handle the council approval, so it all runs through one team. Below is the detail, or just tell us about your place.

New decks

A new deck, built around how you live

Composite, spotted gum or merbau: we help you weigh up looks, upkeep and budget, then build it properly, with quality boards from trusted suppliers.

We use quality materials and stand behind our workmanship with a guarantee.

  • Composite decking (low-maintenance)
  • Spotted gum & merbau hardwood
  • Screens, bench seats & planters
  • Engineered substructure to suit the span

External stairs

Custom external stairs, built as a speciality

A speciality of ours. Standalone staircases, deck stairs and ground-to-door access steps in hardwood or composite, set out to feel right underfoot and last in the weather.

Good stairs are all in the detail: consistent rise and going, clean landings, and fixings and detailing chosen to shed water and resist corrosion in a coastal climate.

  • Standalone staircases & deck stairs
  • Split-level, sloping & tight-access sites
  • Compliant rise, going, handrails & balustrades
  • Hardwood or composite, matched to your deck

Glass balustrades

Keep the view. Keep everyone safe.

Frameless and semi-frameless glass balustrades that meet the rules without interrupting your view, in quality toughened glass.

Designed and installed to suit your deck height and setting, with fixings chosen for the coastal environment.

  • Frameless & semi-frameless glass
  • Toughened safety glass
  • Compliant heights & gaps
  • Coastal-grade fixings

Restoration

Bring a tired deck back to life

Grey, splintering and sad? Most decks have good bones. We sand back, repair what needs repairing, and re-finish so it looks the part and lasts.

Where boards or bearers are past it, we replace them. Where the structure’s sound, we save you money and just make it beautiful again.

  • Sanding back to fresh timber
  • Oiling & staining (colour-matched)
  • Board & structural repairs
  • Re-fixing, re-levelling & clean-up

Design & approvals

We design it, and we sort the council paperwork

Every deck starts as a proper drawing, set out to scale, structure and all, so you can see exactly what you’re getting and council gets what it needs. From there we work out the approval path: many decks in NSW are exempt, others need a CDC or a full DA.

If your deck needs an approval, we handle it end to end. We design the deck, draw up the plans, prepare the supporting documents, and lodge the application on the NSW Planning Portal on your behalf, so it stays simple for you.

  • Drawn to scale, structure and all
  • We check exemptions, CDC or DA before you commit
  • Applications lodged on your behalf
  • Designed, approved and built by one team
