Deck Repair in Dubai
Decks in Dubai gardens, roof terraces and pool areas work in some of the harshest sun on earth. Timber greys and splits, screws back out, boards cup and joists rot where irrigation keeps them wet. We repair, refinish and build wooden and WPC decks so they are safe and look good again.

Looking After Decks in Dubai's Climate
UV is the main enemy of timber decks in Dubai. An unprotected hardwood deck turns grey within months and the surface fibres break down into splinters. Regular cleaning and oiling keeps the timber nourished and the colour rich.
Water is the second problem. Irrigation and pool splash keep the underside of decks damp, and joists rot from the top where boards sit. We check the frame on every repair, not just the boards you can see.
For outdoor carpentry, see outdoor woodwork. For cleaning, see deck washing, and for furniture finishing, wood furniture staining.

Deck Repair in Dubai: Frequently Asked Questions
How Much Does Deck Repair Cost in Dubai?
Deck repair visits start from AED 250. Board replacement, structural repairs and new decks are quoted per square metre or per job after inspection. Prices vary and can change depending on your exact requirements, the materials and access to the property, so the final price is confirmed after we see photos or visit.
How Do I Repair a Damaged Deck?
Start by finding the cause: rotten boards, loose screws, a failed joist or a sinking support. Damaged boards are replaced, joists sistered or replaced, fixings renewed and the deck then cleaned and sealed.
How Do I Fix Loose Deck Boards?
Loose boards are usually caused by nails or screws that have backed out as timber moves in the heat. We remove the old fixings, replace them with stainless deck screws or hidden clips and replace any split boards.
When Should I Re-Seal or Re-Stain My Deck?
In Dubai, timber decks usually need re-oiling or re-staining every 6 to 12 months because of strong UV. If water no longer beads on the surface or the colour has turned grey, it is time. WPC decks do not need staining, only cleaning.
What Is the Difference Between Staining and Sealing?
A stain adds colour and UV protection, while a sealer repels water without changing the colour much. Many deck oils do both. In Dubai's sun, a pigmented stain or oil lasts longer than a clear sealer.
