Deck oiling for Tamarama homes
Tamarama is in the Waverley Council area, about 60 minutes from our base in Elanora Heights. Tamarama is one of Sydney's smallest suburbs, a steep valley of architectural homes above its own small beach.
Decks near the ocean take salt and full sun, which dry the timber out fast. They need oiling more often than decks inland.
Elevated decks on steep blocks are oiled with drop sheets below, so nothing drips onto paving or gardens.
How often in Tamarama
For most Tamarama homes, deck oiling is worth doing every 12 months. Salt and sand build up quickly this close to the water.
What affects the quote in Tamarama
- Salt exposure: heavier salt build-up can need a pre-rinse and a second pass on glass and metal.
- Steep access: carrying gear down stairs and running long hoses adds time.
- Large glass and mixed materials: methods change at each material edge.

Our method
How we handle deck oiling

Nathan is punctual, knowledgeable, polite and left our place neat and tidy.
Step 01 of 04
Clean
The deck is cleaned at low pressure so the grain isn't furred up.

He was professional, responsive, and delivered exactly as promised.
Step 02 of 04
Dry
The timber is left until it's dry right through, which depends on the weather.

Great work, fair pricing, and excellent communication.
Step 03 of 04
Check
We note loose boards, raised nails and damaged timber, so you can decide what to fix first.

Excellent service! Nathan is punctual and nothing is a problem.
Step 04 of 04
Oil
Decking oil is applied along the boards and the excess wiped back.

Rated 5.0 from 92+ Google reviews.
Nathan did a great job washing the external sides of our house. The weatherboard was dirty and had cobwebs. Nathan went above and beyond our expectations, the house was perfectly clean and all the cobwebs were gone.
Nathan did an incredible job at my home cleaning all my outdoor paving areas. He even washed some extra areas of my house free of charge and his price was very reasonable. He's a lovely fella and was prompt, friendly and professional. I highly recommend Nathan's services.
Nathan just completed a pressure wash of our travertine pavers under our alfresco area, around the pool and the sundeck. What an absolutely fantastic job. Nathan is punctual, knowledgeable, polite and left our place neat and tidy. We will certainly be calling him back on a regular basis and can highly recommend him.

How often should deck oiling be done in Tamarama?
For most homes in Tamarama, every 12 months. Homes close to the water need it more often.
Do you offer deck oiling across Tamarama?
Yes. Tamarama is about 60 minutes from our base in Elanora Heights, and we also work in Bronte and Bellevue Hill nearby.
What affects the price of deck oiling in Tamarama?
Mostly salt exposure; steep access; large glass and mixed materials. We inspect first and give you a fixed price, itemised by surface.
How long before I can walk on an oiled deck?
It depends on the product and the weather. We'll tell you the drying time for the oil we use.
Can you oil a grey, weathered deck?
Yes, after a clean to lift the grey surface fibres and dirt. Old, dry timber may need more than one coat.
Can you oil merbau?
Yes. Merbau bleeds tannin, so we clean it and let it dry well before oiling, and keep the run-off off nearby paving.
