Old composite decking being replaced with iFrame porcelain system
Your deck is failing: here's the permanent fix

Deck Replacement
Done Right.

Rotting timber. Warping composite. Popping screws. If your decking is failing, the iFrame steel system with porcelain paving is the permanent solution: no more 5-year replacements.

The Problem

Why Composite Decking Fails

That “25-year warranty” composite decking? Here's what the brochure doesn't tell you.

Winter moisture saturates the timber subframe

The top 3mm of your timber joists are constantly wet through winter. The wood slowly softens and deteriorates from the inside out.

Summer heat expands the composite boards

Wood-chip composite heats up to 30°C+ on sunny days and wants to expand. The boards push against each other with enormous pressure.

Screws lose grip in softening timber

The screws holding your boards down are now fighting two forces: expanding boards above and rotting timber below. Something has to give.

Boards buckle, pop up, and crush together

The result: boards lifting at the edges, gaps appearing, surfaces becoming uneven and unsafe. Even premium American timber-tech products fail this way.

Composite decking showing signs of wear and deterioration

The cycle repeats every 5–8 years with timber and composite.

The Solution

Replace It Once. With Steel.

The iFrame system replaces your entire decking structure with cold-rolled galvanised steel: then finishes it in porcelain paving that lasts decades.

Steel Doesn't Rot

Cold-rolled galvanised steel. No moisture absorption, no deterioration, no failure. Structurally stable for decades.

Porcelain Doesn't Warp

Zero thermal expansion. No buckling in summer, no cracking in winter. Frost-proof, UV-stable, maintenance-free.

Free-Draining System

Water passes straight through the joints and drains away naturally. No puddling, no channelling, no algae build-up.

Installed in Days

No concrete, no wet trades, no curing time. Your old deck comes out and the new system goes in: typically 3–5 days.

100% Recyclable

Your old composite goes to landfill. Our steel is fully recyclable. Better for you, better for the planet.

Cost-Competitive on Elevated Sites

For raised or sloped areas, iFrame + porcelain often matches or beats traditional elevated paving costs.

If I had my traditional patio, I'd be out here pulling weeds and brushing every weekend. Now I just jet wash it back to brand new. There's no maintenance at all. It's the best thing I've ever done.
