Why Erina decks land in our diary first
Erina is home base. Most of the crew lives within ten minutes, the truck and trailer sleep here, and an Erina deck means no travel surcharge and a builder who already knows the local blocks. We have built across every street between the highway, the lake and the shopping centre, so we have a feel for which blocks are flat enough for a ground-level build and which fall away the moment you step off the patio.
The local factors that move a quote
- Sloping blocks. Most Erina yards fall away to the back or the side. The drop is gentle, but it changes the build. Footings get sized for the fall, joists run square to a level frame, and an elevated deck over a metre up triggers a balustrade to the NCC. We measure the fall on site and price the substructure honestly.
- Salt off the coast. Erina is inland of Terrigal, but the salt still gets here on a southerly. Composite or a well-oiled hardwood holds up better than untreated pine over the long run, and the fixings need to be the right grade. We name the brand and the grade on the quote.
- The 30 km no-surcharge radius. Erina is the base suburb, so there is no travel charge on the quote. What you pay is what is in the lines, not a hidden trip fee.
What we confirm before we start
Most backyard decks in Erina sit under the exempt-development threshold, but as soon as the deck goes over a metre up or extends close to the boundary the council step changes. We confirm whether your deck falls under exempt development, a Complying Development Certificate, or a DA before we put a number on the build, so you know the approval path before the work, not after. Call us for an on-site measure and a written by-the-m² quote.

Get a quote →
Elevated Decks & Balustrades
Decks more than a metre up, with footings and posts engineered for the height and a balustrade built to the NCC, timber, metal or glass.
Get a quote →Decks with Pergola or Roof
An outdoor room, not just a deck: the deck plus a pergola, patio or roof over it, set out as one structure so the posts and footings carry both.

Before
After What Erina homeowners say.
“We went composite to skip the oiling and it was the right call near the water. Genuine Modwood, the board named on the quote, on a sub-frame with the joists closer together so it does not flex. Low-maintenance and it still looks new. Nathan was straight about the cost gap over hardwood up front.”
