Service

Timber Repairs & Maintenance

Rot, rusted fixings, tired decks and failing screens - repaired in place, matched and re-finished.

How we approach it

Find the cause

Rot is a symptom. We trace the water path and fix the detail so the repair holds.

Repair before replace

Splice, scarf and let-in repairs keep original material where it is sound and save you money.

Match and protect

Matched timber, matched profile, then oiled or sealed so the repair weathers with the rest.

Inclusions

  • Condition assessment and written report
  • Rot and termite-damage timber replacement
  • Deck board and substructure repairs
  • Cladding, screen and pergola repairs
  • Fixing replacement in stainless where exposed
  • Sanding, oiling and re-sealing

Questions

Good to know

Can you save my deck?
Often. If the bearers and joists are sound, replacing boards and improving ventilation is far cheaper than a rebuild.
Do you offer scheduled maintenance?
Yes - annual or seasonal visits for oiling, clearing and minor repairs.
Will the new timber match?
New timber starts lighter and weathers in. We can tone finishes to close the gap.
How quickly can you attend?
Small repairs are usually scheduled within a couple of weeks; urgent water ingress sooner.
