Frequently Asked Questions

What is composite decking?

Composite decking Sydney usually combines recycled wood fibres and high-density polyethylene (HDPE), a type of plastic. Its composition varies depending on the manufacturer. The essential components of composite decking include:

Wood fibres or sawdust: Manufacturers obtain this component from recycled wood, such as sawmill waste. The decking material derives its strength and texture from the wood fibres.
Plastic or resin: Manufacturers combine high-density polyethylene (HDPE) with wood fibres to produce composite material. HDPE is a plastic or resin that offers durability, moisture resistance, and protection against UV rays.
Additives: Some manufacturers may include materials like rice hulls or fibreglass to increase the composite decking’s strength, flexibility, and fire resistance. Although anti-UV additives have a steep cost, they are necessary in countries with high exposure to UV rays. The composite decking’s precise ratio of wood fibres to plastic changes depending on the manufacturer and intended use.

Generally, manufacturers intend composite decking to be a robust, durable, low-maintenance substitute for traditional timber decking Sydney.

What is the cheapest way to do decking?

The most cost-effective way to build a deck is to choose composite decking from Ezy Decking. While treated pine may seem cheaper initially, it requires frequent staining, sealing, and potential replacements due to rot, termites, and weather damage. With Ezy Decking’s high-quality composite boards, you eliminate the need for ongoing maintenance, which saves you thousands over the life of your deck.

By purchasing directly from Ezy Decking at wholesale prices, you can get premium composite decking at a fraction of the cost of big-name brands. Plus, installation is straightforward, and our boards are designed to be DIY-friendly, allowing you to save even more by installing the deck yourself. For a long-lasting, low-maintenance, and budget-friendly deck, Ezy Decking is the best choice.

Can you build a deck for $5000?

Yes, building a high-quality deck for $5000 or less is entirely possible, especially when you choose Ezy Decking’s composite boards. The total cost of a deck depends on factors like size, materials, and installation, but composite decking offers significant savings over time.

If you opt for a smaller or mid-sized deck using Ezy Decking, you can keep your costs well within budget. Because our composite decking is maintenance-free—meaning no need for staining, sealing, or costly repairs—you’ll save money both upfront and in the long term. DIY installation can also cut costs, as our boards are designed for easy installation.

When compared to traditional timber, which requires ongoing maintenance, composite decking from Ezy Decking is a smarter investment, ensuring you stay within your $5000 budget without sacrificing quality or durability.

What is the cheapest decking option?

While treated pine is often considered the cheapest decking option upfront, Ezy Decking’s composite boards offer the best value over time. Although composite decking may have a slightly higher initial cost, it eliminates ongoing maintenance expenses, making it the most cost-effective option overall.

With Ezy Decking composite decking, you get:

✔ Long-lasting materials – No rotting, warping, or splitting like timber
✔ Zero maintenance costs – No need for staining, oiling, or sealing
✔ Wholesale pricing – Premium decking at an affordable price
✔ Easy DIY installation – Save money by installing it yourself

Many homeowners spend thousands maintaining a timber deck over the years, but with composite decking, you pay once and enjoy it for decades. For the most affordable and hassle-free decking solution, Ezy Decking is the best choice.

What is the cheapest form of decking?

When looking for the most affordable decking material, many people consider options like treated pine, concrete, or second-hand timber. However, these options often come with hidden costs like maintenance, repairs, and replacements.

The cheapest form of decking in the long run is composite decking from Ezy Decking. It provides a premium look and durability without the high price tag of other decking materials. While timber might seem like a cheap option initially, it requires costly upkeep, whereas composite decking stays looking great for decades without additional expenses.

With Ezy Decking’s wholesale pricing, you can get high-quality composite decking at a lower price than many retail options, making it the most cost-effective solution for homeowners, DIYers, and builders looking to save money.

What to do instead of decking on a budget?

If you’re looking for a budget-friendly alternative to traditional decking, Ezy Decking offers a range of cost-effective outdoor solutions.

Composite decking – Even if you’re on a budget, composite decking is a better investment than cheap timber, as it eliminates maintenance costs.
Artificial turf – A great alternative for outdoor areas, artificial grass from Ezy Decking provides a green, low-maintenance surface for a fraction of the cost of timber decking.
Pavers or gravel – While these can be budget-friendly, they don’t offer the same aesthetic or comfort as composite decking.
Raised garden beds or stepping stones – A creative alternative to decking that can enhance your outdoor space without the cost of full deck construction.

For an affordable, stylish, and long-lasting outdoor space, Ezy Decking’s composite decking and artificial grass are the best budget-friendly solutions.

How much is decking per metre?

The cost of decking per metre depends on the type of material you choose. Ezy Decking’s composite decking is priced at highly competitive wholesale rates, making it more affordable than many retail composite options while offering superior quality.

Compared to traditional timber, which can vary from $50 to $150 per square metre plus maintenance costs, composite decking provides better value with a one-time investment and no ongoing upkeep.

How is composite decking installed?

Cleaning is crucial to maintaining your composite deck to guarantee it lasts longer and retains its appearance. Here are the steps for cleaning your composite decking Sydney:

Eliminate debris: Use a blower or broom to remove debris, including leaves, twigs, or dirt, from your composite deck. Eliminating these objects helps prevent debris from seeping into the deck’s grooves.
Spray water on the deck: Use a garden hose to rinse the deck with water and clear your deck from dirt and debris.
Apply a cleaning solution: Prepare a solution using warm water and mild detergent or a specialised cleaner for composite decks, following the manufacturer’s guidelines. Use a sprayer or mop to apply the solution to your composite deck.
Scrub the deck: Use a brush with stiff bristles or a power washer to sanitise the deck’s exterior and eliminate dirt or stains. Scrub the deck carefully to avoid damage.
Rinse the deck: Use a garden hose to remove leftover debris or cleaning solution.
Let the deck dry: Allow your composite decking Sydney to dry for 24 to 48 hours before walking or placing any furniture on it. Drying time varies depending on the prevailing humidity, temperature, and sunlight exposure. However, one to two days is an ideal drying period for composite decks.
Repeat as needed: If the deck is still dirty or stained, repeat the process until it becomes spotless and pristine.

Note: Always refer to your manufacturer’s cleaning guidelines for your composite deck.

Is it possible to cut composite decking?

Yes, just like timber decking Sydney, you can cut composite decking using specific tools. However, the latter’s wood fibre and plastic components are more robust than natural wood. Hence, cheap timber decking Sydney is easier to cut than composite decking.

The tools ideal for composite decking include:

Circular saw: This is an efficient tool for cutting through straight lines on your composite deck. For a seamless cut, utilise a carbide-tipped blade with teeth measuring 24 to 40 mm.
Jigsaw: This tool specialises in making curved cuts through your composite deck. A jigsaw with small or closely spaced blades helps prevent chipping or cracking.
Miter saw: Use this tool to cut angles on your composite deck. A miter saw with a fine-toothed blade changes the saw’s angle and makes quick and accurate bevel or miter cuts on the deck.
Table saw: Alternatively, you can use a table saw to make precise, straight cuts on your composite deck. Experts recommend using a table saw for cutting lengthwise or widthwise and making accurate and exact cuts.

Regardless of your preferred tool and deck, always wear safety goggles and follow the manufacturer’s guidelines when cutting composite timber decking Sydney to prevent accidents and costly damage.

Can composite decking be installed on top of concrete?

Clean the concrete surface: Eliminate debris or dirt on the concrete surface with a broom.
Level the concrete: Use a level to even out the concrete surface. If low spots or uneven areas are present, a self-levelling compound may be required.
Set up the framework: Cover the concrete surface with pressure-treated cheap timber decking Sydney, aluminium, or composite framing. Ensure they are parallel and 400 mm-450 mm apart at most.
Attach the framework: Use concrete screws or adhesive to connect the framing to the level concrete surface. If more levelling is required, utilise pedestals or similar supports.
Install the composite decking: Once you secure the framing and ensure it’s level, you can install the composite decking. Attach the decking to the framing using composite decking clips. Ensure you leave required gaps between the boards for expansion and water drainage.
Complete the edges: Install fascia boards or trim pieces around the deck’s perimeter to complete the edges and hide the sleepers. Installing composite decking Sydney over concrete may raise the deck’s height and affect door or stair access.

Composite decking installation might not be feasible with a cracked or uneven concrete surface. Consult a professional if you need clarification on your concrete surface’s suitability for composite decks.

Does composite decking expand and contract with temperature change?

Yes, composite decking Sydney can expand and contract depending on fluctuations in temperature and humidity. However, the degree of expansion and contraction depends on the composite decking brand and climate in your living space.

Composite decking’s hybrid wood fibre and plastic material have various degrees of thermal expansion. If your composite deck is exposed to temperature fluctuations, it may expand or contract more than timber decking Sydney.

Hence, manufacturers typically require gaps between boards during installation so the composite deck doesn’t warp or buckle over time. These gaps should measure at least 1 mm per 100 mm. Manufacturers may require more significant gaps for areas with extreme temperature changes. They usually mention precise guidelines for gap sizes depending on the decking type and the environmental conditions.

It is critical to understand that improper composite decking installation without allowance for expansion and contraction can lead to long-term damage, including warping, buckling, or cracking.

Always follow your manufacturer’s guidelines and seek professional advice if you have questions or concerns regarding composite decking Sydney installation.

Does composite decking Sydney fade?

Composite decking may lose its colour gradually over time. This type of decking board may fade due to overexposure to the elements, including sunlight and moisture.

The fading extent hinges on several factors, including the following:

Composite decking Sydney brand and quality
Colours and pigmentsv
Single- or dual-layer decking structure
Amount of anti-UV additive
Resistance to UV exposure

Manufacturers combine wood fibres, plastic, and pigment to create various colours and textures for composite decks. These pigments can withstand fading and ultraviolet radiation. Despite this protective feature, composite decking isn’t 100% fade-proof.

Select a superior composite decking Sydney product that can endure severe weather and temperatures to reduce fading. Protecting your composite deck from UV exposure also helps. For example, install a deck cover to minimise fading over time.

Regular cleaning and maintenance play a crucial role in extending the lifespan of your decking board and reducing fading. We recommend using a composite deck cleaner and a soft-bristle brush to remove dirt and debris. Thoroughly rinse your decking board completely with water.

Avoid using harsh cleaning solutions or tools that can damage the deck’s surface and make it more prone to fading.

It’s important to remember that gradual fading is a normal occurrence for many outdoor decks, including composite types. By selecting a superior product and ensuring regular cleaning and maintenance, you can effectively reduce fading and ensure your composite decking maintains its appeal and aesthetics over time.

Does composite decking heat up?

Yes, composite decking, specifically darker colours, can heat up during the harsh Australian summer months. The decking’s surface temperature becomes hotter than the air temperature in extreme heat. Hence, walking barefoot on your outdoor deck isn’t ideal when the heat becomes oppressive in December and January.

The degree of thermal accumulation depends on several factors, including the following:

Decking colour
Material density
Degree of sunlight exposure

Dark and dense decking materials usually absorb heat more than their lighter and less dense counterparts. You can reduce your composite decking Sydney heat accumulation with the following preventive measures:

Select a light colour: Lighter floor deck colours reflect sunlight and absorb less heat than darker versions.
Shade your outdoor patio: Effective shade types for your composite decking include patio roofs, pergolas, and canopies.
Set up a ventilation system: Ensure your deck has sufficient ventilation, improving air circulation and reducing heat accumulation.
Use rugs or mats: Cover your composite decking Sydney with light-coloured rugs or mats to cool the surface and make it suitable for walking. Avoid walking barefoot on outdoor floor decking, especially in summer. Instead, wear comfortable shoes or sandals to prevent scalding and discomfort.

Always follow the manufacturer’s installation guidelines and maintain your composite decking to ensure longevity. Contact an industry professional with questions or concerns about composite decking heat accumulation.

Is composite decking prone to scratches?

Although composite decking can resist scratches better than timber decking Sydney, the former version can still scratch under specific conditions. The extent of scratch resistance hinges on the composite decking brand and type, environment, and frequency of use.

Composite decking Sydney’s hybrid wood fibres and plastic material improve durability and help withstand scratches, fading, and staining. Despite their robust construction, sharp objects, heavy furniture, and animal claws can still scratch composite decks.

Nowadays, manufacturers reinforce composite decking with a second outer layer, a byproduct of co-extrusion. This added feature improves the decking’s resistance to scratches, fading, and stains.

The following precautionary measures can minimise scratching on your composite decking:

Refrain from dragging heavy furniture or sharp objects across your composite decks.
Utilise furniture pads or glides.
Sanitise and eliminate dirt, debris, leaves, grime, and other algae from your composite decking.

If your floor decking gets scratched, use a composite decking repair kit to fix the issue. Alternatively, heating the decking’s outer layer fuses scratches.

It’s best to follow the manufacturer’s guidelines and consult a professional before fixing your composite deck. Otherwise, the risk of damage increases.

Composite decking Sydney is a robust, resilient, and importantly, a low-maintenance option for your outdoor space. This means you can enjoy your deck without the stress of constant upkeep, ensuring its long-term use and appeal.

Is composite decking susceptible to warping?

Composite decking, while generally more resilient than cheap timber decking Sydney, can still warp under specific circumstances. However, it’s important to note that this is a rare occurrence, and with proper care and maintenance, your composite deck can remain in top condition.

Exposing the decking boards to extreme moisture or temperatures can cause them to expand, contract, and eventually warp. Inferior installation techniques can make the situation worse. An example is installing the decking boards extremely near one another without adequate spacing for expansion and contraction.

In sharp contrast to screwing the boards to the deck, contemporary fixing clip techniques allow expansion and contraction without extra pressure. The latter technique increases board pressure and the possibility of cracking or warping.

Taking the following preventive measures will help prevent composite decking warping:

Leave adequate gaps: When installing your composite decking Sydney, ensure there’s a gap measuring at least 1 mm per metre length between each decking board. This step ensures adequate contraction and expansion and prevents warping. The manufacturer may require a larger gap depending on temperature changes in your area. Always refer to the manufacturer’s guide before installing your floor decking.
Maintain sufficient drainage and ventilation: Ample draining and ventilation keep moisture buildup and warping at bay.
Avoid high-moisture areas: Do not install composite decks in areas with poor drainage or those prone to flooding and standing water. These areas expose decking boards to extreme moisture exposure and absorption, leading to warping.

If your composite deck warps, removing and reinstalling the damaged boards with sufficient spacing and support can rectify the issue. Unfortunately, some highly warped boards are beyond repair and require replacement.

While composite decking is a tried-and-tested option for your outdoor living space, it’s imperative to follow correct installation and maintenance techniques to prevent warping and other related issues. Always refer to the manufacturer’s guidelines and seek professional help if any problems arise.

Do you recommend installing composite decks around swimming pools?

Composite decking suits swimming pool areas because it is moisture-resistant, durable, and low maintenance. This type of floor decking can also withstand rot, decay, and insects.

Unlike cheap timber decking Sydney, composite decking is less prone to splintering or cracking. This makes it a safer option for areas around swimming pools, providing peace of mind for you and your family.

Select a composite timber decking Sydney option suitable for swimming pool areas. Ensure your choice is slip-resistant to make your pool area safer and less accident-prone. A composite deck with built-in UV resistance minimises fading and discolouration from sun exposure.

Refer to your manufacturer’s guide for proper maintenance techniques that prevent algae, mildew, or mould buildup. Frequent sanitation and maintenance also ensure the retention of your swimming pool area’s appeal and aesthetics over time.

Composite decking is an ideal choice for a pool deck. Excellent product choice and correct maintenance techniques will allow you to enjoy your pool area for a long time.

Is pressure washing ideal for composite decking?

Yes, you can practise pressure washing techniques on composite decking Sydney. However, you must choose the appropriate method and equipment to ensure its longevity.

Follow these steps when pressure washing composite decking:

Eliminate debris and clutter: Clear your decking boards of debris, clutter, leaves, and branches.
Use appropriate pressure: Purchase a washer with adjustable settings. Ensure your pressure doesn’t exceed 3,000 pounds per square inch (psi). Otherwise, you risk damaging your composite deck.
Select the proper nozzle: A fan nozzle that can spray broad patterns relieves pressure from a small area on your floor decking. Either option allows you to wash a wider area and prevent damage.
Ensure correct wand technique: Moving the wand in a sweeping motion that aligns with the same direction of the decking boards’ grain prevents streaking and damage.
Test in a discreet area: Before pressure washing the whole deck, test the device in a small, discreet, and unobtrusive area to prevent damaging the composite decking.
Use the proper cleaning solution: Check your manufacturer’s cleaning guidelines and ensure you use the appropriate sanitising solution for composite decks. The type of solution usually depends on how much dirt and grime have accumulated on your decking boards. Allow the solution to settle for the recommended time before pressure washing.

Pressure washing is an efficient way to sanitise your composite decking Sydney. However, it is imperative to use the correct technique and equipment and take the necessary precautions to prevent costly damage and repairs.

Is sealing the cut ends of composite decking necessary?

Sealing the cut ends of composite decking Sydney isn’t a requirement. However, sealing improves your floor deck’s aesthetics and increases its lifespan. The exposed cut ends of composite decks can become uneven and irregular, detracting from their overall presentation.

Sealing these exposed ends helps prevent moisture from seeping into the boards, resulting in warping or swelling. Moisture also weakens and degenerates the exposed cuts over time, making the deck weak, compromised, and substandard.

To seal the cut ends of your composite deck:

Sealing the cut ends of your composite deck is a straightforward process. You can use an end-cut solution recommended by the decking manufacturer or a clear, silicone-based sealant.
Use a brush or roller to apply the solution or sealant evenly to the cut ends.
Ensure you follow the manufacturer’s guidelines for the sealant and allow it to dry thoroughly before mounting the board.

Although sealing the cut ends of composite decking Sydney isn’t required, it can improve the aesthetics and increase the lifespan of your deck.

How can I mount a deck on an aluminium frame?

Mounting a deck on an aluminium frame is identical to building one on a wooden frame. However, there are several notable differences because of the former’s properties.

Follow these steps to mount a deck on an aluminium frame.

Prepare your deck: Design your deck and decide on your preferred size and layout. Review several elements, including the deck’s location, height, orientation, and objective.
Obtain the supplies: Purchase the required materials for your composite decking Sydney, including the aluminium frame, decking boards, screws, and brackets.
Set up the site: Clear the area where you mount your composite deck and ensure the ground is level. Outline the deck’s perimeter using stakes and string.
Install the aluminium frame: Install the perimeter frame using drills and screws to latch the frame onto the footings. Next, place the joists on the frame and leave the appropriate gaps recommended by the manufacturer.
Install the decking boards: Place the composite decking Sydney boards atop the bearers and joints. Fasten the boards using the suggested screws and clips. Ensure you leave the recommended spaces between boards for expansion and contraction.
Add the required hardware: Add hardware, including railing posts or stairs, based on your layout.

Mounting a deck on an aluminium frame entails careful adherence to the manufacturer’s instructions and recommendations to ensure safety and the appropriate setup. Always use the proper tools and protective gear when handling aluminium and decking materials.

Why is investing in decking an intelligent choice?

Industry experts consider composite decking Sydney an intelligent investment for several reasons:

What are the disadvantages of composite decking?

Expensive: Composite decking’s durability makes it more costly than composite timber decking Sydney. Homeowners usually must pay 15 to 20% more for composite decks than traditional composite timber decking Sydney. Ezy Decking’s composite decks are usually 25 to 30% cheaper than locally grown hardwood and around the same price as imported Merbau hardwood. Composite decking costs diminish following initial re-oiling.
Non-natural: Composite decking isn’t natural despite manufacturers’ best efforts to mimic natural wood. The only way to make the floor deck look like wood is to use the actual material. Despite composite decks’ unnatural appearance, homeowners can choose from many colours and relish their aesthetics over time. In contrast, cheap timber decking Sydney appears its finest after finishing or oiling.
Maintenance requirements: Contrary to popular belief, homeowners must maintain their composite decks through periodic cleaning and sweeping. However, cleaning them is more manageable than sanitising traditional cheap timber decking Sydney.
Comparison: When choosing a composite deck, it’s important to compare products, prices, and durability. Many manufacturers offer stain and fade warranties, so be sure to choose a board with a warranty that suits your needs. At Ezy Decking, we stand by the quality of our boards with a 10-year warranty, giving you peace of mind in your investment.
