Custom floating deck builder serving the East Rand (Johannesburg)

Would you live to add a beautiful, versatile outdoor space without the hassle of major renovations? 

If the answer is YES, did you know floating deck is a smart, stylish solution?—and Deck Master is your go-to floating deck builder in Boksburg. 

What is a Floating deck / Island Deck?

A floating deck—also known as a freestanding deck—is built directly on the ground or on concrete blocks rather than being attached to your home. 

It gives you the look and function of a traditional deck without the need for structural connections. 

Perfect for backyards, gardens, pool areas, or even small patios or small back yards.

This type of deck is ideal for Boksburg homes where soil conditions or layout make it tricky to attach a deck to the house. 

And the best part? It’s often quicker and more cost-effective to install than traditional decks.

Why you’ll love your floating deck?

No need for building permits and quicker installation

Most floating decks don’t require municipal approval, speeding up the process.

Minimal groundwork means faster construction and less mess for your convenience. 

Low Maintenance

Built with longevity in mind, especially when paired with composite or treated timber.

Improved Outdoor Living

Create a space where you can relax, braai, or entertain guests all year round.
