Decks & pergolas in Adelaide.

Outdoor carpentry for decks and pergolas, with real examples in MIC's Adelaide project gallery.

Start with your home and what it needs.

A deck or pergola should relate to how you use the house and garden, not just fill an empty space. MIC's gallery includes the Thorpe Street deck and Allen Grove pergola. Discuss how you move between indoors and outdoors, where shade is useful and what you want to retain before settling on the shape and scope of an outdoor project.

A usable outdoor space

Think about furniture, access and the connection to doors and the garden. Measurements and photos explain whether you want to replace an existing feature or create something different.

Deck and pergola carpentry

MIC's carpentry experience extends to the outdoor projects in its gallery. Discuss materials, the existing structure and related work that needs inclusion.

Details to settle early

Changes in level, boundaries, access and connections to the house influence the project. Ask what assessments, plans or approvals need resolving before scheduling work.

More renovation Q&As →
Can I see MIC's deck and pergola work?

Yes. The gallery includes the Thorpe Street deck and Allen Grove pergola. Use these to discuss features you like, rather than assuming the same design will suit every property.

Can you assess an existing deck or pergola?

Describe what you want repaired or changed and share photos. Steve can discuss the work and whether further assessment is needed. Suitability for retaining a structure cannot be established from appearance alone.

What should I decide before enquiring about a deck?

Start with intended use, approximate size, access to the house and material preferences. You do not need a final design to enquire, but these details make the conversation more useful.

How do I find out whether plans or approvals are needed?

Raise this early with Steve and confirm the requirements for your property with your council or an appropriate building professional. Do not assume a small outdoor project is automatically exempt.

Tell Steve what you have in mind.

Your suburb, a few photos and a description of the work are a useful starting point. Scope, timing and availability are confirmed for each job.
