Premium Timber Construction: Custom Decks & Pergolas in Geelong

Architectural Decking & Pergolas

Premium hardwood decking and custom pergolas for Geelong & the Surf Coast. High-end timber construction using Spotted Gum, Ironbark & more. Projects $10k–$50k.

A custom-built deck or pergola is the ultimate bridge between your home’s interior and the natural beauty of your garden.

In the Geelong region, our outdoor structures need to be more than just beautiful—they need to be built to endure the harsh Victorian sun and the salty winds of the Surf Coast.

At Focus Landscaping and Design, we bring a "stadium-grade" mindset to timber construction. Drawing on Matt’s experience in the prestige Fremantle luxury market, we specialize in high-end hardwood decking and architectural pergolas that transform standard backyards into resort-style sanctuaries.

High-End Hardwood Decking

Spotted Gum & Ironbark

Our preferred timbers for the Geelong climate. These high-density hardwoods offer incredible fire resistance and a stunning natural grain.

Hidden Fixing Systems

For a truly high-end finish, we can utilize "top-fix" or "side-clip" systems that eliminate visible screw heads, leaving a smooth, architectural surface.

Sub-Frame Excellence

A deck is only as good as what’s underneath. We build heavy-duty, leveled sub-frames with proper ventilation to prevent rot and ensuring your deck remains rock-solid for decades.

Architectural Pergolas & Shading

Custom Timber Pergolas

Hand-crafted hardwood structures that provide filtered light and a framework for climbing plants like Wisteria or Jasmine.

Seamless Transitions

We specialise in matching your deck level exactly to your internal floor height for that "flush" indoor-outdoor flow.

A pergola provides the "ceiling" for your outdoor room, offering shade, privacy, and a structural focal point for your landscape.

Privacy Screening

Integrated timber slatting or battening to shield your entertaining area from neighbours—essential for new estates in Armstrong Creek and Mt Duneed.

Custom Shapes

From curved edges to wrap-around bench seating, we design timber elements that follow the unique lines of your home.

Integrated Lighting

We pre-wire our structures for low-voltage LED strip lighting or pendants, allowing you to transition your space from day to evening seamlessly.
