Top Rated Decking Builder Auckland Central

In Auckland’s temperate climate, being able to sit outside on your deck all year round is a must for many homeowners. But, if your home doesn’t have one, it’s tempting to try your hand at DIY’ing a deck.

Before you do, it’s important to note decks require structural integrity, not to mention consent for those that are a certain height. Those who know about both of those considerations are the experts at Zones Landscaping in Central Auckland.

Explore the Latest Decking Trends in Auckland Central

Central Auckland isn’t known to host the most spacious plots of land, so homeowners are taking advantage of multi-level decking. Whether that means an elevated second storey deck or a simple tiered patio Aucklanders are opting to build up, not out. 

Another way homeowners are maximising their mini-landscape is by trading in traditional timber decking for an unexpected material that offers heaps of creative freedom: tiles. 

These modern, patio-style, decks bring vibrancy and life to small spaces. Tiles are easy to clean and with the range of incredible designs that can be created from these small to medium squares, it’s no wonder they’re becoming so popular.

What are the popular types of decking materials in Auckland?

Auckland Central’s temperate climate gives homeowners a good range of choices of decking material. 

• Timber is the most popular (and generally cheaper) option
• Composite
• PVC
• Aluminium 

Relatively new in the industry and at the higher end of the price range, WPC (wood plastic composite), has the look and feel of wood but is low maintenance, relatively easy to install, and has a long lifespan. 

Synthetic PVC decking is 100% plastic and therefore fully resistant to damage from rot, moisture and insects. It comes in a wide range of patterns and colours and needs very little maintenance. It is more expensive than WPC but less expensive than aluminium decking.

Aluminium decking is a premium option that is both lightweight and durable while also being fire resistant. This decking material is ideal for properties that experience strong winds and heavy rainfall.

In Auckland, timber is the most commonly used decking material, with pricing, availability, and the range of options all contributing to its appeal. Keep reading to discover the type that might best suit your Auckland Central property.
