FOOTINGS
We generally use H4 treated pine posts or galvanised steel stirrups to support the framing of the deck, these are installed in a way that lowers the risk of the steels rusting out or the post rotting. If these are not installed correctly it can deteriorate quickly and provide no support down the track.
FRAMING
H3 treated pine is the most commonly used framing by MJ Leckie Carpentry as it is more versatile in framing around posts and obstructions. For larger spans like areas were it is more difficult to install posts we would recommend steel framing.
DECKING
If you are like us and love the natural look of timber and then a hardwood deck like merbau, spotted gum or black butt would be the option for you, just take into consideration that these should be oiled once a year depending on the products recommendations. Alternatively, a composite deck requires less maintenance.
