Turpentine Decking 135x19mm – Standard & Better Grade (Random Mixed Lengths)

Turpentine is a premium Australian hardwood prized for its outstanding durability, natural resistance to decay, and classic aesthetic. Our 135x19mm Turpentine decking boards in Standard and Better Grade are ideal for homeowners, builders, and designers seeking a high-performance, long-lasting deck that can withstand Australia’s tough climate conditions.

Supplied in random mixed lengths, this decking offers cost-effectiveness and flexibility in layout while maintaining a consistent, clean appearance. The timber showcases rich reddish-brown to deep chocolate hues with a fine, interlocked grain that looks stunning with either a natural oil finish or stain.


Key Features:

  • Durability Class 1 (Above Ground): Exceptional lifespan and resistance to decay

  • BAL 19 Rated: Suitable for use in bushfire-prone areas up to BAL 19

  • Termite & Rot Resistant: Naturally protected from common timber threats

  • Hard & Dense: Excellent for high-traffic or exposed outdoor applications

  • Minimal Leaching: Lower tannin bleed than many other hardwoods

  • Ethically Sourced: Responsibly harvested to meet Australian forestry standards


Installation Guidelines:

  • Pre-drill and screw-fix boards to minimise splitting and ensure secure fixing

  • Use seasoned timber and allow for ventilation and drainage underneath

  • Maintain spacing of 4–6mm between boards for expansion and drainage

  • Install over durable joists (preferably Class 1 or 2) for longevity

  • Ideal for coastal, bushland, or high-foot-traffic environments


Finishing Tips:

  • Apply a high-quality exterior decking oil or sealer before or immediately after installation to preserve color and protect against moisture

  • Re-oil every 6–12 months depending on exposure to UV and weather

  • To maintain a consistent color, use UV-stabilized decking finishes

  • Clean your deck regularly to prevent build-up of dirt and mildew
