    Project InspirationWarkworth Deck

    Warkworth Deck

    A classic Kiwi pine deck - Warkworth, Auckland

    When the owners of this beautiful Warkworth villa undertook a ground-floor renovation to update their entertaining space, bathroom, and laundry, they also decided to upgrade their outdoor living. They built a large deck to accompany their new lawn, extend their entertaining area, and optimise the northwest view down the valley.

    Built in December 2021, the homeowners were on a tight timeline to finish the project before Christmas. The contractors, Forsight Builders, constructed the sub-frame but needed more time to finish laying the decking to meet the deadline. Luckily, PlaceMakers Warkworth supplied the materials on time, so family and friends were recruited to help finish the job. Under the watchful eye of the homeowner’s son, a builder’s labourer, the deck was complete after two full days. The hard work paid off, and Christmas Day was celebrated in style on the new deck. 

    Premium pine timber was the decking material of choice for this project. A wider profile board of 140 x 32mm suited the character home, which features nine-inch weatherboard cladding. This deck is built close to the ground, and although there is ventilation under the deck, the homeowner felt a thicker 32mm board would be less likely to move. Finally, the decking boards were screwed down, rather than nailed, to provide a more sophisticated look. Pine timber is a cost-effective decking material that is sustainably sourced and will weather off to silver naturally.
