Decking Across the South West
Cape Build is a South West deck builder based in Dunsborough, working from Bunbury and Busselton down through Vasse, Yallingup, Eagle Bay, Cowaramup and Margaret River.
Led by a qualified carpenter and registered builder with more than 15 years of experience, we design and build premium outdoor entertainment areas across the region.
OUR SERVICES
We design and build custom decks, pergolas and outdoor entertainment areas for homes across South West and the South West. Our work is guided by three priorities, creating a natural connection to the home, selecting materials that suit the local climate, and building each element properly from the structure through to the final finish.
The result is an outdoor entertainment area that looks refined, works comfortably and performs reliably over time.
Decks
Custom timber and composite decking designed around the site, the existing home and the way the space will be used. From compact courtyard decks to large outdoor entertaining areas, each deck is built with careful attention to structure, drainage, detailing and finish.

- Do I need council approval for a deck or pergola in South West?

- Which materials suit South West conditions best?
- We select materials for the local climate, including coastal exposure, salt laden wind and summer heat. That usually means durable hardwood or quality composite decking, corrosion resistant fixings and finishes chosen to hold up over time in South West.
