FAQ

Decks & pergolas in Canberra — common questions

Yes. Total Scope Carpentry designs and builds timber and composite decks, plus attached and freestanding pergolas, for homes across Canberra and the ACT.

Canberra's hot, dry summers and frosty winters suit durable hardwoods like spotted gum and merbau, low-maintenance composite decking, and treated pine for budget-friendly builds. We help you choose the right material for your budget, look and maintenance level.

Some smaller, low-level decks and pergolas may be exempt, but many require building and/or development approval from the ACT Government. We help you understand what your project needs before work starts.

Cost depends on size, height off the ground, materials and site access. The best way to get an accurate figure is a free, no-obligation quote — send a few photos and measurements through our online form and we'll get back to you.
