Sustainable Decking
Composite timber decking is an eco-friendly substitute for natural hardwood, made from recycled sawdust and plastic.
Transforming two separate waste products into high-quality timber planks, composite decking is a superior sustainable choice. The resulting decking maintains the appearance of timber while being denser, stronger, and more durable than natural
hardwood.
Composite decking proactively removes plastic from supply chains, benefitting both you and the environment over time.
Constructed using sustainable methods and premium materials, composite decking requires only minimal upkeep. There is no need to apply any chemical-based sealants, stains, or oils that could increase your carbon footprint.
The low-maintenance decking is perfect for those who wish to spend more time enjoying their deck, rather than maintaining it.
Make the smarter choice with composite timber decking from Austek Home Improvements.

The Beauty of Patios and Pergolas
As people have been spending more time at home, there is no surprise that, more than ever before, homeowners have been desiring to spend more time outdoors. Owning your patio or deck is a great way to better use the space you have in your backyard. It also makes sense that you would desire to put out furniture such as seating, lounges, or an outdoor grill for those you love to enjoy. In such a case, many who also have or are looking to have their patio also wish to have a pergola to offer shelter and shade. Today, you also have many options for your patio’s surface and premium roofing materials. You can select and choose from custom pergolas with a deck design in Australian Colorbond steel, insulated roof panels or polycarbonate roofing.
Getting an expert to look after your patio and pergola is the perfect way to add value and beauty to your house while fitting your requirements, sense of style, and budget. This has made our home improvement builders and designers so favoured for creating alfresco designs around the home today.
Delightful Patios – Seamless and Smooth Surfaces
You can envision the ideal entertaining area with the perfect patio and pergola. Adding a patio to your property is a great way to enjoy your home and raise your property's value. Compared to a deck, patios are more affordable, require less maintenance, and are more durable.
You also have plenty of options regarding the kind of patio you choose for your home. Our builders at Austek Home Improvements can look after the whole project for you. Suppose you need any assistance developing your concept for your home backyard patio. In that case, you can contact us for more information on a material and design that best fits your requirements based on your lifestyle, land, house design, and budget.
Charming Pergolas – Shade and Comfort from the Sun
When you desire more privacy and shade and add more beauty to your home’s outdoors, you can take inspiration from many home design magazines with an enchanting decked pergola.
Commonly, they are made from wood or aluminium. In wood, they mostly take on a grid-like filtered design to allow scattered light and shade to your outdoor deck or patio. White or brown timber pergolas with a deck are particularly popular as garden centrepieces with climbing plants such as ivy, wisteria, or grapevines. While in aluminium, these pergolas on the deck take on a more modern industrial look, with an adjustable shutter grid or roofing made from Colorbond steel, insulated roof panels, awnings, or polycarbonate roofing. Depending on the light and heat you get in your area, you can choose based on your style preferences, budget, and needs.
They can also be customised in roofing designs for Colorbond steel roofs, such as in gable, Dutch gable, sloped, flat, and more. We can also create a roofing design tailored to your house's design and carport to match.

Have You Considered a Sunroom?
If you like the idea of an outdoor area but want to keep the feel and vibe of your
home intact, then consider a sunroom extension. A sunroom can be either attached to an existing back
deck or built as a standalone structure within the confines of your property. This means it can form
part of your existing pergola design and be incorporated with some of the alfresco extension ideas
above, or it can be built entirely independently as a statement piece for your property and
decoration.
A patio sunroom is the best way to enjoy the Australian weather without exposure to
too many harmful UV rays, spiders, snakes and other unpleasant realities of the bush. Our structures are
flexible, extending from the traditional glass construction of a sunroom to a more modern hybrid model
that incorporates glass and flyscreens to accomplish a similar idea but with better airflow. Here at
Austek, we have options to suit anyone who’s been thinking about adding a sunroom to the design of their
alfresco, and we’ll work with you to accomplish your vision for your very own sunroom!
FAQs
How much does it cost to build a pergola in Sydney?
Pergolas in Sydney can cost between $2500 and $12000, depending on size, materials, complexity of the design, and additional electrics installed. A basic, pleasant, sturdy timber pergola in Sydney will likely cost you $3000 to $6000. Professional builders can work with you to select the most cost-friendly options prior to commencing construction.
Can a deck hold the weight of a pergola?
Yes, a deck should be able to support a pergola, so long as proper structural reinforcement is present. It is important to secure the pergola to the primary framework of the deck, rather than surface boards. It is also important to take wind uplift and local codes into account before installation, ensuring your decked pergola’s longevity and minimal extra costs down the line.
Can you extend an alfresco area?
You can absolutely extend an alfresco area. Such extensions can involve additional flooring, insulated roofing to protect from the weather, outdoor kitchens for entertaining guests, and more. Complex extensions involving walled sub-sections, or extensions intended to tie into the structure of your house itself, often require council permission and professional assistance. Be sure to contact your local alfresco builders or outdoor specialists in Sydney for clarification and support.
What is the difference between a pergola and a patio?
A patio is a paved ground-level open-air area, which can (but doesn’t have to) feature a solid roof structure to offer full protection from inclement weather and the sun. A pergola, on the other hand, is an open or partially open outdoor structure with a lattice roof, sometimes used to support climbing plants for aesthetic purposes. Many choose to place a pergola on their patio, rather than a traditional roof. This allows for greater amounts of natural lighting and airflow while entertaining guests or simply enjoying the space.
What are the most common deck-building mistakes?
Among the many mistakes that can be made while building a deck in Australia, untrained builders might improperly install their ledger board (which is vital for structural stability), use the wrong type of fasteners, or underestimate drainage and ventilation requirements. Incorrect joist spacing and footing depth are also common, which is why relying on professional deck and patio builders is often the safest option for avoiding costly readjustments.
What does Stratco do?
Stratco is a leading Australian manufacturer and supplier of building and home-improvement products, including cladding, guttering, and roofing. They are known for providing high-end products and services, including Colorbond steel and precision laser cutting. With over 70 years in the market, their experience and breadth of offerings are very helpful for DIY enthusiasts and professional builders alike. We at Austek are well acquainted with the installation of Stratco products for our customers.
How much would a sunroom extension cost?
A sunroom extension can cost between $2500 and $7000 per square metre, depending on materials (e.g. architectural glass, steel, timber). Therefore, a basic 12m2 (small) extension may cost around $30000, a 20m2 (medium) extension around $50000, and a 30m2 (large) extension about $75000. Going with a prefabricated kit rather than a custom sunroom extension is a good way to cut costs, as is DIY installation, though hiring specialists often means fewer mistakes and a quicker build.
How much does a patio cost in Australia?
Patios in Australia can cost anywhere from $200 to over $1000 per square metre, with basic concrete being among the cheaper material options. Natural stone and high-end decking will increase costs, as will the addition of a roof, heating, lighting, and custom furniture (all popular options). Mapping out your ideal design with a patio building expert prior to construction is generally a wise choice.
Can I build a pergola without council approval in NSW?
Maybe. This depends on several factors. Certain councils might allow the construction of a small pergola (under 25m2, under 3m high) without official permissions, but for a larger pergola, one set close to boundaries, or one set in bushfire zones, you will require council permission for sure. It pays to check regardless of your design intent.
How can I extend my patio cheaply?
DIY construction may prove cheaper than hiring a patio builder, assuming you have the right skills (otherwise, mistakes may lead to greater costs). You can also decrease costs by keeping the design plain, choosing budget-friendly materials like gravel or concrete pavers, and looking for used materials wherever possible. If you decide to hire patio builders in Sydney, be upfront about your budget so they can make appropriate recommendations.
What exactly does alfresco mean?
Alfresco simply refers to being outdoors, as in “would you like to dine inside the restaurant, or would you prefer to dine al fresco?” In relation to your home, an alfresco area is a space that flows out from your kitchen, living, or dining area, wherein guests can be entertained outdoors. An alfresco area usually has a roof to keep rain and other inclement weather at bay, though a pergola is the option to choose for a more artistic look, especially if you allow foliage to grow over the structure.
