    Pine Decking

    Pine Decking, an affordable option to extend your home

    A classic Kiwi decking material, radiata pine has a consistent light tan colour, is straight grained with an even texture, and readily accepts stains. As with all timber, pine will naturally weather off to silver over time. It is a durable, medium-density softwood that is available in two grades:

    Premium Pine Decking
    Is a high-grade timber where some character is visible

    Merch Grade Decking
    Will feature more knots than premium pine and may be more suitable for areas where appearance is not as important

    Merch Grade Pine Decking

    A budget-friendly option, merch grade decking boards feature natural imperfections in the wood grain, such as knots.  Shop Merch Decking

    Premium Pine Decking

    An ever-popular option for Kiwi decks, premium pine timber boards are graded for quality, with minimal defects and some character visible in the wood grain.

    Looking After Your Pine Deck

    Radiata pine requires regular care to keep it in good condition. Improve the longevity of your deck by giving it a good clean once each year to reduce mould and mildew build up.

    How to clean your deck

    • Sweep with a hard bristled broom to remove loose debris
    • Check for any structural issues and fix them, such as screws sticking out (hammer them back in, or replace them), and rotting boards or knots falling out (replace the boards with new ones)
    • Clean your deck with a deck clean solution. Water blasters can damage a timber deck if used incorrectly. The pressure should be no more than 600 PSI and the nozzle should not be held too close to the deck, or in one place for too long

    In addition to the annual clean, a pine deck will require sanding and staining every 1-2 years.

    Pine is a natural timber product that responds to environmental changes such as moisture levels and sunlight exposure. Cupping and splitting may occur, especially in the hotter drier seasons. Care must be taken during installation and maintenance to allow for movement, which is a normal occurrence in all timber decking.

    Installation guide for pine decking

    When installing a radiata pine deck, you’ll need to consider ventilation, span, coating, spacing, and fastenings.

    We’ve got all you need to know in our pine decking installation and maintenance guide.

    Remember at all times that pine decking is a natural timber product and so slight cracking and movement may occur; especially in the hotter drier seasons. It is natural that with New Zealand’s high levels of UV that most timber silvers-off over time.
