Hi I love my deck max deck it looks so professional and classy. My 87 year old dad assembled it quite a few years ago. He can’t fault it he was a shop fitter and ships carpenter all his life and a perfectionist and he hasn’t seen better no nails smooth, easy maintenance and no dishing. Fantastic!

DeckMax and Peter in particular were fantastic to work and I ended up with a beautiful deck built with just my home handyman skills, including storage cabinets next to our spa. Peter had lots of useful advice on the best way to build the deck with invisible fixings. He also did the calculations for the amount of timber and fixings I would need to complete the job and the calculations worked out perfectly. Would recommend the to anyone. The timber quality and materials were first-rate.

It is four years since we had deck max installed on our patio area. During the construction phase the deck max staff were friendly efficient and helpful and the recommended tradesman was highly skilled and professsional The decking has been durable and easy to clean and shows no wear or fading after being in full sun for this time. It tranformed our outdoor living area and added value to our home

Great product. I do floor sanding and coatings and have re sanded a lot of timber decks and to punch the nails down or screw down the screws to stop ripping belts is a lot of work. With the deck max no problem there also with no nails or screws in the face of the deck boards the deck looks brilliant

I am a professional building in Sydney and the only decking system I use is Deck-Max. From customer service, quality of timber/composite and now Bamboo…for ease of use there is no better. It’s alway back by strong, correct advice and service. If Someone has complained about this product then they have done it wrong…some of my decks are 10 years old now with no call backs. That’s a good product!

Peter, Wendy and Ian have been so helpful with advice to suit our specific needs for our deck. Peter’s expertise in helping us to chose the best product was invaluable. The information pack supplied and back up support offered for our DIY project, helped us make the decision to go with Deck-Max. We are more than happy to recommend the product and Deck-Max and would like to thank them for the assistance provided. Very happy clients. We would also like to add that the ‘One Stop Shop’ process in supplying everything that is required to complete the project was exceptional. No having to run around to purchase things that may have been forgotten! The ‘One Stop Shop’ process included absolutely all that was needed to complete the job, right down to the brooms, clamps, glue and so much more. This made the job so much easier and faster. Thanks so much for taking the ‘pain and running around’ out of the project. Judee and Graham Vaughan.

We have been so happy with our deck that Peter and the team at Deck-Max created 12 months ago. It has meant a largely unused space became practical and beautiful. Highly recommend this product.

My experience with the Team at Deck-max over several projects has been something to share. From the customer service, to the delivery of order, the exceptional quality of products, and then the continual technical back up from Peter, the Managing Director is something not found often in the Business World.

Why hidden fastening systems for timber decking?

The problem is, that when you fasten your deck using nails or screws, a number of issues are created. It takes time to pre-drill boards and with having to join each board over a joist, wastage of over 10% is quite common. Added to this is the risk or split boards, or later having boards or nails popping… there has to be a better way.

This is why Deck-Max created a hidden fastening system that enables you to install and enjoy better timber decking.

By using pre-grooved, high quality hardwoods, this hidden fastening system attaches in the side of each board, securely fixing it in place. With a massive 700kg load rating, this creates a fastening that is stronger than screws or nails by up to 500%.

As the Pro biscuit is available in a 3mm or 5mm sizing, spacing your boards is simple and easy, with the fastening system assisting with the positioning of your boards as you install them.

End Matching Decking

A common issue with traditional decking, is the waste created by having to start and finish each length on a joist of the sub frame. You now have a better option, in the form of End Match. Another Deck-Max innovation that allows you to join boards at any point on the sub-frame.

This provides you with several advantages, enabling each length of timber to be used completely more often, slashing waste by 80% down to about 2%.

Additionally, you also save about 30% on installation time by eliminating much of the cutting traditionally needed to get boards to the right length.
