Q?

Should i use Hardwood Timber or composite/softwood decking?

A.
For our Brisbane clients, we consistently advocate for hardwood
timbers. These timbers offer consistent colour and are built to endure
the QLD climate, making them a long-lasting investment. Hardwood decks
offer fantastic value for money and are generally more affordable than
composite decking.
 
Hardwood timbers make excellent choices for Australian decks due to their durability and natural aesthetics. We strongly recommend this material to our customers for its resilience and beauty. With options like Merbau, Jarrah, and Spotted Gum, there’s a variety to match every style. Merbau, also known as Kwila, is the most popular timber for decking in Australia.


Hardwoods lend a sophisticated appearance to any outdoor space. Each type of timber has its unique appeal, but the warm red-brown tones of Merbau are particularly irresistible. With proper care and maintenance, the beauty of your hardwood deck can endure for years. Trust the experts at Premium Lifestyles to build a beautiful, enduring hardwood deck for your home.

Every timber deck we install comes with a complimentary Sikkens sealant. This German-made sealant offers long-lasting protection against moisture absorption. Unlike oil-based treatments, it hydrates the timber between regular oil coats, preventing timber degradation. This reduces your deck maintenance needs, eliminating the necessity of stripping down the timber.

Whilst we offer the option of composite decking and/or softwood decking we tend to walk away from these types of materials.
