What Our Clients Say
Your outdoor deck weathers everything the Australian climate can throw at it — sun, rain, and temperature extremes. Over time, even the best-built decks lose their lustre. The good news? You don’t always need a full rebuild.
At Floorcraft Timber Floors, we provide professional deck refurbishing services that restore natural beauty, improve safety, and extend the life of your timber — all at a clear, honest price. As a third-generation, family-owned business and ATFA-accredited flooring specialists, we bring the same award-winning craftsmanship outdoors that we’re known for indoors.
What Influences the Cost of Deck Refurbishing?
-
Deck Size and Accessibility
Larger or multi-level decks require more labour and material. -
Timber Condition
Deep cracks, rot, or loose boards increase preparation time. -
Type of Finish
Water-based oils are eco-friendly and quick-drying; solvent-based stains offer deeper tones. -
Exposure to Elements
Sun-exposed decks need higher-grade UV protection coatings. -
Frequency of Maintenance
Regular care lowers long-term refurbishing costs dramatically.
Our Deck Refurbishing Process
1. Inspection & Quotation
We inspect the deck and provide a detailed cost breakdown.
2. Surface Preparation
Cleaning, sanding, and removing old coatings for a smooth surface.
3. Repairs & Replacements
We replace damaged boards and fix protruding nails or screws.
4. Oiling or Coating
Applying premium oils or sealants to protect and enrich the timber.
5. Final Buff & Finish
Ensuring an even tone, sealed edges, and long-lasting protection.
Our approach restores not just the look but the structural integrity of your outdoor space — ensuring it remains beautiful and functional for years to come.
Cost-Effective Deck Refurbishing vs Deck Replacement
Many homeowners assume that a faded or cracked deck means full replacement — but refurbishment is often a smarter, more affordable choice.
A full rebuild can cost anywhere from $400 – $800 per m², while a professional deck restoration usually sits between $40 – $70 per m². That’s a potential saving of tens of thousands on large decks.
Refurbishing also preserves the original character of your home, reduces landfill waste, and can extend the life of your existing structure by another 10–15 years. By choosing Floorcraft Timber Floors for refurbishing, you’re investing in sustainability, quality, and cost efficiency without compromise.
If the substructure is sound, restoration offers all the visual impact of a new deck — at a fraction of the cost.
Seasonal Deck Care and Re-Oiling Savings
The key to managing long-term deck maintenance costs is timing. Re-oiling once or twice a year — ideally before summer and winter — prevents UV damage, surface cracking, and costly repairs later.
At Floorcraft Timber Floors, we offer seasonal re-oiling programs for our clients, combining discounted maintenance visits with regular inspections. These proactive services may reduce total upkeep costs by up to 40% over five years while keeping your deck in pristine condition.
We use eco-friendly, low-VOC coatings that protect your deck from harsh Australian weather while maintaining its natural timber tone. Regular re-oiling doesn’t just save money — it keeps your outdoor living area ready for entertaining all year round.
Eco-Friendly Deck Refurbishing Options
We care for your timber — and the environment. Our deck finishes include sustainable oils and water-based coatings that provide long-lasting results without harmful fumes. These finishes enhance natural grain while offering superior UV and moisture resistance.
With low odour and fast curing times, they’re ideal for homes, cafes, and commercial decks where downtime matters.
