Frequently Asked Questions

There is no one-size-fits-all answer to this question, as the best wood for decking in Australia will vary depending on the climate and location. However, some of the most popular woods used for decking in Australia include Merbau, Jarrah, and Kwila.

Merbau is a hardwood that is very resistant to rot and decay, making it a popular choice for decks in wet climates. Jarrah is also a hardwood that is very durable and resists rot and decay, making it a good choice for areas with high levels of rainfall. Kwila is a tropical hardwood that can withstand extreme temperatures and weather conditions.

As a general rule, Spotted Gum is better than merbau. It is more durable and stable, making it ideal for outdoor use in harsh environments. Additionally, Spotted Gum has a higher resistance to moisture, rot, and termites – meaning it will better withstand the elements over time. The timber’s distinctive grain patterns and Colour variation also give it added appeal.

That being said, there are certain situations where merbau may be the better option. For example, if you are looking for a timber with a reddish hue, then merbau would be a better choice – as Spotted Gum has more of a brownish tone.

Yes, over time merbau will turn a light grey. This is because the tannins in the wood react to UV rays from the sun, and overtime these tannins will cause the wood to turn a light grey. While this change in color may not be desirable to some people, it is a natural process that occurs with all types of wood.
