What can you get from decking builders?

Booking a decking service through Airtasker means getting connected with contractors, builders, designers, or repair specialists who are ready to work according to your request. From purchasing required materials to making sure you’re satisfied with the final output, Taskers will take care of the intricate process—just clearly communicate with them on your needs.


Here’s an overview of the tasks you can expect when hiring a specialist:


Deck installation

Taskers proficient in the art of decking installation should boost the pleasant energy in your home. The first step is planning the layout by visualising the edges and midpoint of the deck, plus plotting the support posts. By laying weed control fabric and gravel or placing concrete slabs, they start covering the ground. The specialist will place a substructure made of steel, timber, or aluminium. Some installers may add extra moisture protection using materials like butyl tape.


Next come the support posts or caissons. The Tasker cuts the boards and lays them out. Installers usually utilise steel bracket ties for support and an electric planer to keep the boards flush. 


After finishing this main frame of the deck, the main boards and decking material are installed. The deck installation specialist maintains 1⁄4” gaps between the boards to allow the wood to expand and contract depending on the weather. Lastly, they bolt the wood planks to the support posts using the anchor brackets. They’ll nail down the perimeter, inspect the entire deck, then let you check. And just like that, your deck is ready for you to furnish, decorate, and enjoy.


Note: If you haven’t secured a permit for the deck construction, you can request your Tasker to do this for you.


Deck staining and sealing

Built a new deck but have yet to get it stained and sealed? Need to give your expansive deck its yearly application of deck sealer? Deck installers near you can do the job.


Specialists can prepare the surfaces, apply the stain, and offer tips on maintaining its condition. If it’s a sealing job, it will consist of cleaning, power-washing, and sanding, followed by one to two coats of sealant. 


Tip: If you want to have home repainting done while you’re at it, you can hire a house painter on Airtasker.


Deck repair

Spotted cracks, splinters, or a greyish hue on your deck? Your hired expert can address those concerns. They can also check for rotting wood, inspect the ledger (the part attached to your house), as well as the joists, beams, and railings, to make sure everything is in top condition.


Repairing can also mean as simple as securing loose posts, or as complex as preventing a collapsed deck. If unsure, consult your Tasker about your deck’s condition.


If you want to continue elevating your home, you have the option to hire skilled Taskers in gardening, flooring, gate installation, roofing, and more.

I really didn't want to leave a review but you have to with this app. I'm not going to lie we were very disappointed. Ghazi was a lovely guy and I'm sure his talented but he did an inferior job on our deck. This was backed by multiple professionals who viewed the work. The job was for $1000. We expected proper cleaning, sanding and reoiling to create an even consistent appearance. The result was far from this. Very disappointed.

Paint timber deck roof frame

$150

Yallambie VIC 3085, Australia

23rd Nov 2022

Had the deck roof timber frame replaced, made a start painting and just not getting the time to finish. I'll supply everything (paint and equipment) to get the job done. It is accessable by 3 step ladder except there is a section that is about 4mtrs off the ground from a pool deck only about 600mm wide footing, quiet tricky to get too. If you have the expertise and equipment (I do not have equipment to access) to get that area done then feel free to state so and make an offer. Otherwise any offers I will assume encompass the basic job of 2 coats of the frame accessed from a 3 step ladder. (provided) Estimate 3 hours work (some dry time might be required which would break the job up). Probably don't need to say it but if there is any spilage especially on the timber decking - there's no money coming your way. Will supply drop sheets. Job date negotiable to suit both of us and the weather. Located in Yallambie (north-east suburbs). I have a few basic jobs still to do (decking/paver pressure wash, deck Oil, pool glass clean, further painting, all sorts of DIY stuff) if the right person does a good job at the right price happy to supply further cash work. All equipment/materials supplied, just looking for a good worker. Any questions or offers, happy to receive.
