Professional Deck Restoration Heidelberg

Heidelberg is one of Melbourne’s most historic suburbs, featuring a mix of grand heritage homes and modern architectural extensions. Whether you have a Victorian bullnose verandah or a contemporary entertaining deck, Deck Rejuvenation provides the high-end finish required for Heidelberg properties.

Why Heidelberg Decks Need Specialized Care

Restoring decks in a heritage precinct requires attention to detail:

• Heritage Overlays: Changes to front verandahs must often respect the original character. Restoration is preferred over replacement.
• Intricate Joinery: Older decks feature detailed posts, fretwork, and molding that require hand sanding.
• High Expectations: Heidelberg properties demand a furniture-grade finish, not a quick “slap and dash” job.

Our Complete 9-Step Restoration Process

We combine modern technology with old-world craftsmanship.

1. Protection: Masking up expensive brickwork and bi-fold doors.
2. Stripping: Careful chemical removal of old stains.
3. Washing: Neutralizing the timber.
4. Detail Sanding: Using hand tools for corners and around heritage posts.
5. Main Sanding: Using our belt sanders for the main floor area.
6. Fine Finishing: Sanding to a high grit (80-100) for a smooth feel.
7. Brightening: Popping the grain.
8. Premium Oiling: Using high-end water-based oils (like Intergrain UltraDeck) for longevity.
9. Final Polish: Ensuring a consistent sheen.

What Makes Us Different: We Fix Cupping

Even on heritage verandahs, floorboards can cup. We carefully sand these flat, restoring the original lines of the entrance without removing too much historic material.
