What are popular deck options in Sydney’s Northern Beaches?

Decking trends on Sydney's Northern Beaches often reflect the area's coastal lifestyle. Natural timber decking is popular for its rustic, organic appeal. Fluid transitions between indoor and outdoor spaces are also common, maximising space and enhancing the connection with nature.

Another trend is the use of soft, curved edges, replacing traditional straight lines to create a more flowing, nature-inspired aesthetic.

Given the hot climate, pool decking is also a favoured option. Not only does it serve as a bridge between the indoors and a refreshing dip in the backyard pool, but it also creates a resort-like vibe that many homeowners desire, right in the comfort of their own homes.

Most deck designs in this area connect with the beautiful coastal surroundings while accommodating multiple purposes, from relaxation to family barbecues and social events.

How much does a deck cost in Sydney’s Northern Beaches?

Like anything else, the cost of a deck depends on the materials, design, size, and additional features you choose.

Softwood, such as treated pine, is generally more affordable per square meter compared to harder, more durable, and visually appealing wood types like blackbutt and merbau. Higher-end low-maintenance and eco-friendly options like bamboo decking typically come at a higher price per square meter. However, they are often more sustainable and durable than cheaper options, which can be especially beneficial in coastal environments.

It’s also important to consider additional material and labor costs, depending on the features you want. For example, if you opt for built-in lights on your deck, you’ll need to account for the cost of both materials and electrical work in your budget. Other factors that affect decking costs include permit fees and potential inspection and reporting expenses.

Costs are rough estimates and are subject to change. For a fixed-quote accurate to your specific project, please consult your local Zones Landscaping Consultant. 

Do you need a permit to build a deck?

Whether you need a permit or council consent to build a deck in Sydney's Northern Beaches depends on several factors, including the size, height, location of the deck, and local planning regulations.

To learn more about the requirements for your specific decking project, consult with your local landscaping consultant.
