About This Service

If your deck feels bouncy or you can see it sagging, there's something going on underneath that needs sorting out. Common culprits in Brisbane include termite damage to bearers, inadequate original footings, or joists that have copped too much moisture over the years. We assess the load-bearing capacity, check for pest damage, and reinforce or replace compromised structural elements. This is the kind of work that prevents a deck from becoming genuinely dangerous - we've seen some scary ones over the years.

How Brisbane's Climate Affects This Work

Brisbane's combination of intense UV and high humidity is particularly brutal on timber decks. UV breaks down the lignin in timber, turning it grey and brittle, while moisture promotes rot and fungal growth from underneath. Decks here need re-sealing every 12-18 months and regular checks for soft spots, especially after the wet season.
