Deck Installation and Construction in Cape Town

  

Deck construction and installation is one of BuildVision's primary areas of expertise, and we serve both commercial and residential clients. Our Cape Town team of carpenters possesses the know-how to design and construct bespoke decks that are capable of meeting all of your requirements. We have the expertise and the resources necessary to bring your vision of the perfect deck to life, whether it be a roomy deck for hosting large gatherings or a quaint deck for quiet reflection.

 

Planning and Design

 

Before starting any deck installation project, our team will work closely with you to understand your requirements and preferences. We will assess your outdoor space, taking into consideration factors such as size, shape, and existing landscaping. Based on this information, we will create a comprehensive deck design that maximizes space utilization and complements the architectural style of your property.

​

Deck Construction

 

Once the design and material selection are finalized, our carpenters will begin the deck construction process. They will meticulously measure and prepare the site, ensuring a solid foundation for your deck. Our skilled Cape Town carpenters will then proceed with the installation of the deck frame, followed by the placement of the decking boards. They will pay close attention to detail to ensure that the deck is level, secure, and built to last.

 

Deck Repairs and Maintenance

  

BuildVision Cape Town is able to install and construct decks, as well as repair and maintain existing decks. Deck repairs and maintenance are also available. Decks may eventually require maintenance or repairs as a result of normal wear and tear or damage brought on by the elements. Our team of carpenters is able to evaluate the condition of your deck and do any necessary repairs to bring it back to its original state, both in terms of its functioning and its appearance.

Material Selection

 

We have a large selection of decking materials so that we can meet the budgetary and aesthetic requirements of a wide range of consumers. The following are some instances of selections that are frequently selected:

 

  • Hardwood: Hardwood decking offers a timeless and natural look. It is known for its durability and resistance to weathering. Our carpenters can help you choose from a variety of hardwood species, such as teak, ipe, and mahogany.

  • Composite: A low-maintenance alternative to traditional wood decking is composite material. It has remarkable durability and resistance to moisture, insects, and fading, as it is made from a blend of recycled materials and synthetic polymers in their synthetic form. You are able to give your outdoor space the exact appearance you want by using composite decking, which comes in a wide variety of colors and finishes to choose from.

  • Pressure-Treated Wood: Pressure-treated wood is a cost-effective option that offers durability and resistance to rot and decay. It is treated with preservatives to enhance its lifespan, making it suitable for outdoor applications like decking.

​

Repairs

 

Our skilled carpenters have the expertise to handle a wide range of deck repairs, including:

 

  • Deck Board Replacement: If you have damaged or rotting deck boards, our carpenters can remove and replace them with new ones. We will ensure a seamless match with the existing deck, maintaining its visual appeal.

  • Structural Repairs: If your deck has structural issues, such as loose posts or unstable railings, our carpenters can reinforce and repair them to restore the stability and safety of your deck.

  • Staining and Sealing: Over time, the colour and finish of your deck may fade or become worn. Our team can refresh the appearance of your deck by applying a fresh coat of stain or sealant, protecting it from moisture and UV damage.

 

Maintenance

If you want your deck to last as long as possible and continue looking great, routine care is a must. Here at BuildVision, we provide a variety of maintenance options, such as:

 

  • Cleaning: We will thoroughly clean your deck to remove dirt, debris, and mould. Regular cleaning helps prevent the buildup of organic materials that can cause discolouration and decay.

  • Inspections: Our carpenters will conduct regular inspections of your deck to identify any signs of damage or wear. Early detection of issues allows for timely repairs, preventing further deterioration.

  • Preventive Treatments: To protect your deck from the elements, we can apply protective treatments such as sealants and waterproofing products. These treatments help minimize moisture absorption and prevent warping, cracking, and rotting.
