Why choose Orange Projects

QBCC licensed builder

Orange Projects holds QBCC Licence No. 15620733 and is fully insured for residential and commercial decking work.

More than boards

We handle removal and disposal, footings, posts, bearers, joists, stairs, fascia and balustrades, so one team is responsible for the whole deck.

Timber or composite

Hardwoods such as Merbau, Spotted Gum and Blackbutt, or composite boards from Ekodeck and Ezy Decking. Supply and install, or install only if you are supplying the boards.

Existing frames assessed, not assumed

On replacement jobs we check the existing structure before quoting. Framing is only reused when its condition and size suit the new deck.

Fixed written quotes

You get an itemised, fixed price in writing after we measure, with stairs, balustrades and any engineering listed separately.

Homes and commercial sites

We build and replace decks for homeowners, landlords, property managers, body corporates and commercial premises such as offices, retail and hospitality spaces.

Residential and commercial decking around Nerang

Alongside home decks, we take on decking for managed and commercial properties: outdoor customer areas for cafes and retail, office break-out decks, body corporate common areas, and replacement decks on investment properties for landlords and property managers. Commercial work can be timber or composite, and is scoped and quoted the same way: measure, assess what is there, then a fixed written price.

Many homes have a deck that sits well above the yard, with a narrow, steep set of stairs that nobody likes using. Rebuilding the stairs alone can change how the whole back of the house works.

Comfortable step sizes

Stairs feel right when every step is the same and the rise and going are in a comfortable ratio. The Building Code sets limits, and within those limits we aim for a gentle stair that is easy carrying a plate or a toddler. Uneven steps, especially the top or bottom one, are what trip people.

When a landing helps

  • Long flights are easier and safer broken up with a landing.
  • A landing lets the stair turn, which saves yard space.
  • A wide landing can double as a spot for pots or a bench.
  • Landings are often needed where a stair changes direction.

Handrails and balustrades

Stairs over a certain height need a handrail and balustrade. We fit rails at a height you can actually grip, and keep balustrade gaps tight enough to meet the rules for children.

Treads and grip

Tread material should match the deck where possible. Grooved or textured composite treads help in wet weather, and a contrasting nosing makes each step easier to see at night. Step lights set into the stringers are a small extra that make a big difference.

Related work

Where stairs come down onto a slope, they often meet garden steps or a path. Our outdoor stairs and steps and retaining walls pages cover that side of the job.

Prices

As a general guide, timber decking runs roughly $350 to $550 per m² and composite $450 to $700 per m² supplied and installed, depending on height, access, framing and finishes. Stairs are priced by the number of steps, landings and rails. Install only is also available.
