03 9465 9875A Decking Timber That’s Built to Last
Blackbutt timber decking is known for being dense, strong, and stable. It doesn’t move much once installed and holds its shape over time, even when exposed to the elements. The grain is mostly straight, with colour variations that range from pale cream through to light brown. It gives you a clean, modern finish without losing the warmth of natural timber.
Over time, it will naturally weather to a soft silver tone if left untreated, but if you prefer to maintain its golden colour, regular oiling will keep it looking sharp.
Fire-Rated and Termite-Resistant
With a BAL 29 fire rating, Blackbutt is one of the few Australian timbers approved for use in higher-risk bushfire zones. That makes it a smart option for decks built in suburban fringe areas or regional properties where fire compliance is essential. It also has a natural resistance to termites and decay, which means less long-term worry when it comes to structural integrity.
Whether it’s an exposed pool deck or a sheltered veranda, Blackbutt performs well in most outdoor settings when properly installed and maintained.

Despite its density, Blackbutt is relatively easy to work with using standard tools. It machines cleanly and takes fixings without much fuss. Just make sure to pre-drill, especially near board ends. Once it’s laid and finished, you’ll get a surface that holds up well to daily use, weather swings, and moisture changes.
