What is the design process like if I want to customise my Cheltenham deck?

If you want to build a totally customised, one-of-a-kind decking for your home, you’ve come to the right place. Our deck building process includes two steps.

Step 1: Concept Design Development

Our deck builders start this process by consulting with you and helping you figure out the best material and colour for your project. From there, we create 3D design mock-ups that help you see exactly what your deck will look like in your home. We send these images over to you for approval or modification. Once you’re happy, we move on to step number two.

Step 2: Deck Design and Drawing Plans

With the concept created, it’s now time to start bringing your new deck to life. This is done by creating:

• Comprehensive drawings for client approval
• A deck creation master plan
• A construction plan
• Specifications on sections, elevations, and detail
• A lighting plan

Laying out each element of your project in this way helps ensure that we never miss a step, and that we maintain the highest quality possible.

What are the primary differences between composite and timber decking?

Composite decking is manmade while timber decking comes from nature. This difference in materials comes with various pros and cons for each option. Timber deck, on one hand, offers:

• Stunning visual appeal
• Durability and structural integrity
• A great option in Sydney’s climate
• Increased resale value for your home.

That said, timber’s colour can fade over time, and you will need to do some ongoing maintenance to avoid things like splintering and dulling of the wood.

Composite decks, on the other hand, boasts:

• Fewer maintenance requirements
• A highly customisable range of colours and shades
• Increased sustainability
• Decreased risk of scratching, mould, and fading

That said, it will never be quite the same as true hardwood. When making your choice between the two, consider your lifestyle, your budget, and the amount of time you will be able to spend on maintenance.
