Sydney’s Composite Decking Specialists
Composite decking has transformed the way Sydney homeowners think about outdoor spaces. No oiling, no sanding, no splinters — just a beautiful deck that looks great year after year with nothing more than an occasional hose-down. And with modern composite boards so close to real timber in look and feel, you genuinely don’t sacrifice aesthetics.
At 5 Star Decking, we don’t just install composite — we know every board, every system, every brand. We carry samples of Modelo, Millboard, Evalast Pioneer, Modwood and Trex on site so you can see and feel the difference before you commit. We’ll give you an honest recommendation based on your space, your style and your budget.

Composite Decking Sydney — FAQs
What is the best composite decking brand in Sydney?
For the most realistic timber look, Millboard is unmatched. For pool areas and coastal properties, Evalast Pioneer’s GFR core is the best choice. For the best all-round value, Modelo offers a solid board (not hollow) with hidden fixings at a lower price point, backed by a 25-year warranty. We stock all five brands and will bring samples to your free quote.
How much does composite decking cost in Sydney in 2026?
Modelo starts from $750–$950/m² fully installed. Modwood starts from $800–$1,050/m². Evalast Pioneer and Trex range from $850–$1,200/m². Millboard premium is $1,100–$1,400/m². All prices include subframe, boards, fixings, installation and waste removal.
Does composite decking get hot in Sydney’s summer?
Some composite boards do absorb heat in direct sunlight. Lighter colours perform better in full sun. Millboard and Evalast Pioneer use different core materials that reduce heat retention compared to older composite products. We advise on colour and product selection at your free quote.
Is composite decking good for pool areas in Sydney?
Yes — composite is the best choice for pool surrounds. It won’t rot, swell or become slippery when wet. We use P4-rated boards (Millboard and Evalast) for pool areas to meet Australian safety standards. No oiling, no sealing, no maintenance.
How long does composite decking last?
Quality composite boards (Millboard, Evalast, Trex) are warranted for 25 years and realistically last 30+ years with minimal care. The subframe will typically need attention before the boards do — which is why we use quality treated timber or aluminium subframes on every job.
