Deck Repairs & Maintenance Sunshine Coast
Restore Safety, Style & Strength to Your Deck
Deck Repairs that Keep Your Outdoor Space Safe & Beautiful
We repair, restore, and maintain timber and composite decks across the Sunshine Coast. We help keep your outdoor space safe, beautiful, and built to last.
Bring Your Deck Back to Life
Sun, rain, and time eventually take their toll on every deck. Boards split, nails loosen, and timber can lose its shine. If your deck is starting to show its age, Sunshine Coast Decking can help bring it back to life.
We specialise in repairs, restorations, and ongoing maintenance for timber and composite decks of all sizes. It’s the kind of work that makes a real difference to safety, structure, and long-term value. Whether it’s a major re-board, a full restoration, or an ongoing maintenance plan, we’ll give you clear advice and the right solution for your space.
Is your job the right fit for our team?
We focus on repairs, restorations and maintenance projects that offer lasting value rather than one-off patches. Use the checklist below to see if your job aligns with what we do best:
✅ Fits our scope
- More than a couple of boards need replacing
- Structural repairs / subframe remediation
- Decks we’ve built or fully assessed
- Mid-to-large restoration or sanding/oiling + repairs
- You’re planning regular maintenance / scheduled visits
❌ Outside our scope
- Just a single board, nail, or screw fix
- Cosmetic scratches, dents, or superficial fixes
- Small repairs on a deck we’ve never inspected (unless full assessment)
- Small patch jobs under our minimum call-out
- One-off handyman jobs
Why this matters: Deploying a licensed team for tiny jobs is inefficient (for both parties). We focus on safety, durability, and futureproofing. When repair isn’t the best option, we’ll recommend a partial or full replacement… whatever makes more sense long term.
Common problems we fix
Decks on the Sunshine Coast deal with heat, humidity, salt air, and storm seasons — and that means issues like:
- Loose or rusted nails and fixings
- Rotten, split or soft timber boards
- Wobbly railings or unstable steps
- Mould, mildew, or water staining
- Faded or peeling finishes
Whether it’s minor touch-ups or a complete overhaul, we’ll give you an honest appraisal and clear next steps.
Repairs, refinishing, and maintenance options
We offer:
- Full or partial deck restoration
- Replacement of damaged joists, boards, and steps
- Pressure cleaning, sanding, and oiling
- Protective resealing and anti-slip coating
- Structural reinforcement or re-levelling
You can also opt into a routine maintenance plan — ideal for rentals, busy homes, or commercial properties.
Is it worth repairing? Or is it time to replace?
If you’re unsure whether to repair or replace your deck, you’re not alone. Many homeowners call us to help make that decision. We’ll assess your existing structure, listen to your goals, and factor in your maintenance history.
Some questions to consider:
- Have you kept up regular oiling and inspections?
- Has water been pooling or causing long-term damage?
- Is the substructure still sound?
Sometimes a full replacement is the smarter long-term move — especially if past upkeep hasn’t kept pace with timber’s needs. If you love the look of wood but don’t love the maintenance, it might be time to consider composite options.
These modern materials offer the style of timber with minimal upkeep — and may better match your lifestyle or budget moving forward.
We’ll help you weigh it up clearly — no pressure, just practical guidance.
Ongoing deck maintenance
Regular maintenance not only protects your deck but extends its lifespan significantly. We offer one-off refreshes or scheduled visits depending on your needs.
Our typical maintenance service includes:
- Inspection of fixings and structure
- Clean, light sand, and reseal
- Minor board replacements if needed
- Advice on protecting high-wear zones (like BBQ or pool areas)

FAQs
How do I know if my deck is safe?
If you notice soft spots, movement underfoot, or rusted fixtures, it’s best to book an inspection.
Can I change from timber to composite?
Yes. In many cases we can reuse or adapt the subframe. We’ll assess and advise accordingly.
How long does deck maintenance take?
A standard clean and reseal can be done in a day or two. Repairs and rebuilds vary depending on scope.
Do I have to move my outdoor furniture?
We’ll discuss access and logistics with you before we start. In most cases, we can work around it or help move it safely.
Do you offer regular maintenance plans?
Yes. We can book annual or seasonal visits to clean, reseal, and check for early signs of damage.
Do you handle small repairs (of just 1 or 2 boards)?
In most cases, no, as those are best handled by a handyman or local tradesperson. We focus on repair jobs with wider scope and structural impact. If during a free inspection we see it would make better sense to use a handyman (instead of employing a larger crew), we’ll simply let you know.
If my deck is badly damaged, do I need full replacement?
Sometimes you do. If the subframe is compromised or damage is extensive, we’ll discuss whether a rebuild is the safer, more cost-effective path.
