Why Choose Pine as Your Timber Decking in Sydney
2. Easy to Maintain
The ease of maintenance is another huge factor to consider when choosing pool decking material. Aside from looking good, it has to add value to the property as well. Hardwood pool decking is famous for this, and looks the most appealing compared to other options.
3. Price
Whichever material you prefer, it has to match the cost of the project. Here at Adora Decks, we will make sure to deliver value to your money through outstanding workmanship.
4. Heat Resistance
Another factor to consider when choosing pool decking is its heat resistance property. Choosing lighter coloured decking is ideal to reflect heat and can make the space look brighter and more spacious.
Frequently Asked Questions
What licence should a patio contractor hold in NSW?
A current NSW contractor or builder licence covering residential building work. Adora Decks holds licence 451245C under ABN 39 659 824 370, and we’re fully licensed and insured. You can verify any licence on the NSW Fair Trading register in under a minute. A contractor who won’t put the number on the quote is telling you something.
Do I need a written contract for a patio?
In NSW a written contract is legally required for residential building work over $5,000, including labour and materials. Over $20,000 the requirements step up further, including the home building compensation certificate. A written contract protects you and the contractor equally — it’s the document that settles what “included” meant when memories diverge six weeks in.
What is home building compensation cover and do I need it?
It’s the NSW safety net if your builder dies, disappears or becomes insolvent before finishing, or if defective work isn’t rectified. Licensed contractors taking on residential work over $20,000 must obtain cover before starting work or taking any money, including the deposit. Minimum combined cover is $340,000. Ask for the certificate — don’t accept a promise to send it later.
How much deposit should a patio contractor ask for?
In NSW the deposit is capped at 10% of the contract price. Anyone asking for 30% or 50% upfront is either unlicensed, in cash-flow trouble, or both. Progress payments should be tied to defined stages of work completed — not to dates on a calendar. If the payment schedule doesn’t match the build schedule, ask why.
What warranty comes with a new patio in NSW?
Statutory warranties under the Home Building Act run six years for major defects and two years for other losses. These apply automatically — a contractor can’t contract out of them. Beyond that, individual products carry their own manufacturer warranties; some composite decking ranges, for instance, carry 25-year product warranties. We’ll set out both at handover.
How do I compare patio quotes properly?
Compare inclusions, not totals. Line up the roofing product and gauge, the footing type and depth, the framing material and sizes, whether guttering and downpipes are included, whether the slab or base is in scope, who removes the rubbish, and whether approvals are in the price. The cheapest quote is very often the one with the most missing lines.
What are the warning signs of a bad patio contractor?
No licence number on the quote. Cash-only, or a large upfront deposit. A verbal quote for a job clearly over $5,000. Vague inclusions. Pressure to sign today for a discount. No insurance certificate. No fixed address or a mobile-only contact. Any one of these is worth a question; two together is worth walking away.
Is Adora Decks insured?
Yes — we’re fully licensed and insured, operating under NSW licence 451245C and ABN 39 659 824 370. Insurance details and the home building compensation certificate, where the project value requires it, are provided as part of the contract documentation. If you’d like to see them before you commit, just ask when we quote.
Who is responsible if the patio doesn't comply with council rules?
The contractor is responsible for building compliantly, which is why the approval pathway needs settling before design is locked, not after the frame is up. We confirm whether your patio falls under exempt development, a CDC or a full DA at the start. Non-compliant structures can be the subject of council orders, and the cost of unwinding one lands on the owner.
Do I need to do anything before the contractor starts?
Read the contract properly, including the payment schedule and the variations clause. Keep your copy of everything — plans, quotes, certificates, receipts and photos. Make sure you’ve seen the licence and, where applicable, the insurance certificate. And tell the contractor about anything buried in the work zone: irrigation, cabling, pool lines, old footings.
