Avoca Beach - Part 2

External Renovation & Deck Transformation

Transforming an ageing outdoor space into a coastal entertaining area.

This external renovation transformed a severely deteriorated timber deck at the rear of the home into a series of beautiful, durable outdoor spaces designed to make the most of the home's spectacular Avoca Beach outlook.

The existing rear deck was replaced with three new tiled decks across three levels, creating a seamless connection between the home, pool and surrounding landscape. Frameless glass balustrading was used throughout to maintain the uninterrupted ocean views, while the new tiled surfaces provide a practical and low-maintenance outdoor entertaining area that complements the existing home.

The Transformation

The existing timber deck had deteriorated significantly and required a complete rebuild. The new design introduced three levels of tiled outdoor living, carefully constructed around the existing inground pool.

The result is a much more functional connection between the home and the outdoors, with generous entertaining areas and clear sightlines across the pool and towards the ocean. Every element was selected and constructed to balance durability, functionality and the coastal setting, while maintaining the clean, contemporary feel of the existing home.

What our clients say

“I cannot recommend JRS highly enough. I have dealt with numerous builders over the years, but JRS were the most professional and easy to work with. We did not know James when he quoted for the first project, but he was very clear on costs and expectations from day 1. If there was any change in the price we initially agreed, it was because we had made amendments. And those amendments were discussed, and James advised on what were the best options. We were delighted with the finished result. We had discussed our second larger project for over 5 years and had never felt comfortable with the discussions we had with other builders. But after our first project, we knew we trusted James implicitly with costs and quality of work, so asked him to do. Again, we were delighted with the end result. If you want a builder you can trust, who consults you throughout the process to ensure the project is meeting your expectations and who delivers over expectations on quality of work without any surprise costs, then I am happy to recommend JRS. James is the first builder I have worked with where there was no friction between us and no nasty surprises. When you are talking about your family home, that is priceless.”
