Deck Painting and Staining
Timber decks restored, stained, or painted. Protection from Melbourne’s UV and rain.

Deck painting and staining in Melbourne protects your outdoor timber from UV damage, moisture, and wear. Untreated decks in Melbourne grey out within 12 months and start to split and crack within 2 to 3 years.

We restore, stain, and paint timber decks across 20 Melbourne suburbs. We work with merbau, spotted gum, treated pine, and other common deck timbers. Every deck job starts with sanding or stripping the old finish, then applying a quality oil or stain system.

Deck pricing depends on size, condition, timber type, and finish choice. We provide a written quote after inspecting your deck.

What We Paint

Our Deck Restoration Process

01

Inspection. We check for rot, structural damage, loose boards, and nail pops.

02

Cleaning. We wash the deck with a deck cleaner to remove dirt, mould, and old coatings.

03

Sanding. We sand the deck to expose fresh timber and remove the grey weathered layer.

04

Application. We apply your chosen finish. For oils, we use Sikkens, Intergrain, or Cabot's. For stains and paints, we use Dulux or equivalent products.

05

Second coat within the manufacturer's recoat window.

Deck Painting and Staining Costs (2026 Guide)

Pricing depends on the size of your deck, the condition of the timber, and the finish you choose (oil, stain, or paint). Decks in poor condition need more preparation and cost more.

Decks need re-oiling or re-staining every 2 to 3 years in Melbourne. Regular maintenance prevents expensive full restoration jobs.

Oil penetrates the timber and feeds it from within. It is easier to maintain and recoat. Stain sits on the surface and provides more UV protection and colour. For most Melbourne decks, a quality decking oil reapplied every 2 to 3 years is the practical choice.
Every 2 to 3 years for a horizontal deck surface in Melbourne. North-facing decks exposed to full sun may need annual maintenance. Covered or shaded decks last longer between coats.
