All Decking Work Covered
New Decks. Repairs. Resurfacing. We Do It All.
Whether you want a brand new entertaining area, need to replace a few rotten boards, or you're building around a pool — Amir has the skills and the experience to get it done properly and make it last.
🔨
New Deck Construction
Ground-level, raised, or built into a slope — Amir quotes the job properly, selects the right materials, and builds a deck that's solid, level, and built to handle the Perth climate. Entertaining areas, alfresco extensions, and pool surrounds.
⬜
Timber Decking
Treated pine, hardwood, and Merbau — all installed and finished to a high standard. Amir will advise on the right species for your budget, the UV exposure, and how much foot traffic the deck will take. Natural timber done right lasts for decades.
⬛
Composite Decking
Low-maintenance composite boards suit Perth summers well — no oiling, no splinters, and they hold their colour for longer. A good option for pool surrounds or homes where low upkeep is a priority. Amir sources quality product, not cheap imports.
🔧
Deck Repairs
Bouncy boards, wobbly posts, cracked frame joists — most decks don't need full replacement, just proper repair. Amir assesses the structure honestly and will tell you straight whether a repair is worth doing or whether the frame's had it.
♻️
Rotted Board Replacement
A few rotted boards on an otherwise solid deck is a common problem in older Perth homes. Amir can replace individual boards or sections, match the timber as closely as possible, and leave the deck looking clean and structurally sound.
🏊
Pool & Alfresco Decking
Decking around pools needs to be non-slip, moisture-resistant, and look good under the sun. Amir has experience building pool surrounds with appropriate materials and finish. He also carries out pool inspections — handy if you need both done at once.
Sound Familiar?
Common Decking Problems Amir Fixes Every Week.
Most deck problems come from the same few causes — cheap materials, no sealing, or just age. Here's what Amir sees most often across Cockburn, Fremantle, and the southern suburbs.
🦶
Springy, bouncy, or soft boards underfoot
Usually means the subframe joists have started to rot or the bearer fixings have failed. Feels uncomfortable and is a safety hazard. Can often be repaired without replacing the whole deck — Amir will assess and advise.
🌧️
Rotted or crumbling deck boards
Timber left unsealed in Perth weather deteriorates faster than people expect. Rot usually starts at the ends of boards where the grain is exposed. Early repair saves the frame — letting it go means a full rebuild later.
📐
Uneven or sloping deck surface
A deck that's gone out of level can pull away from the house, cause pooling water, and become a trip hazard. Amir can jack and re-level the frame if the footings are still sound, or advise if the stump or footing needs replacing.
⬜
Faded, grey, or weathered timber
Unpainted or unoiled timber goes grey and dries out fast under the Australian sun. A sand, clean, and re-oil can bring it back to life — or Amir can repaint for a clean finish that lasts longer with less maintenance.
🔩
Wobbly handrails or loose posts
Handrails and posts need to be solid — especially on raised decks. A post that moves is a safety issue. Amir can refix, rebolt, or replace posts and handrails as a standalone job or as part of a broader deck repair.
🐜
Termite damage to deck frame
Perth's northern suburbs are termite-prone, but it happens in the south too. If there's evidence of termite activity in the frame, Amir will assess the extent of the damage and advise on whether repair or replacement is the right call — honestly.
25 Years in the Trade
You're Not Getting a Labourer. You're Getting Amir .
Amir started in metalwork straight out of school and has spent 25 years doing exactly this kind of work — fencing, framing, structural repairs, and building things that hold up. He didn't start a handyman business last year with a ute and a toolbox. He's a tradesperson who knows how to read a job, use the right fixings, and build something properly.
That experience shows in the details: the right bearer spacing, treated timber that's appropriate for ground contact, stainless fixings near pools, and a frame that's square and level before a single board goes on.

Amir repaired our Colorbond fence and fixed the gate in Cockburn. He confirmed the afternoon before, arrived right on time, got it done in a few hours, and left the place immaculate. Haven't had a tradie that organised in years. Won't hesitate to call him again.

I manage rental properties across Fremantle and Melville and Amir is the only handyman I use now. Responds fast, quotes same day, turns up when he says he will, and the invoice always comes through properly. He's permanent on my preferred supplier list.

Had Amir come out to fix a gate that had been dragging for six months. He looked at it, explained exactly what was wrong, gave me a fair written quote and did the repair the same week. 25 years of experience shows — knew what to do immediately. Highly recommend.

Common Questions
Decking Perth — Frequently Asked Questions.
How much does decking cost in Perth?
Decking costs in Perth vary depending on the size of the area, the type of material (treated pine, hardwood, or composite), and whether it involves a new build or repair work. Amir provides a clear written quote before any work begins — no hidden costs, no surprises. Call 0401 962 511 for a free on-site measure and quote.
Do I need a building permit for a deck in Perth?
In Western Australia, a building permit is generally required for decks that are more than 500mm above natural ground level or exceed certain size limits. For ground-level or low-level decks, a permit may not be required. Amir will advise you on permit requirements as part of the quoting process — he won't start work without being sure you're covered.
What decking materials do you work with?
Amir works with treated pine (the most affordable option for most residential jobs), hardwood species such as Merbau and spotted gum (durable and attractive), and composite decking boards (low maintenance, good for pool areas and high-UV spots). He'll recommend the right material for your budget, location, and how you plan to use the deck.
Can you repair an existing deck rather than replace it?
Yes — in many cases, a deck only needs partial repairs rather than a full replacement. Amir will assess the structure honestly and tell you whether repair or replacement is the better investment. If only a few boards are rotted or the frame is still solid, he'll repair rather than upsell you on a new build.
Do you build decking around pools in Perth?
Yes. Pool decking is one of the most popular jobs in southern Perth. Amir can build timber or composite decking around in-ground and above-ground pools. He also carries out pool inspections, so if your pool area needs a safety check at the same time, that can be combined into one visit.
