Amazing Outdoor Areas That Add Real Value

Your backyard should be as liveable as the inside of your home. A well-designed deck or outdoor entertaining area extends your home's usable space, creates a great place to relax and entertain, and adds genuine value to your property.

We design and build outdoor living spaces from the ground up, handling structural work, decking, pergolas, lighting and everything in between. Our team manages the full scope so you get a finished result, not a half-built project.

Testimonials

Client Stories

"My experience with Smarter Home Renovations has been very positive. I love that it is a family business. Tony and Milan work together very well. They are professional, polite, considerate, they work really hard and they do a great job! I am very happy with their work and highly recommend them."

Christine H

Love our new deck!

"Fantastic service and fantastic price. We had our outdoor area fully tiled and our kitchen renovated. They talked me through the process step by step, did what they promised in the time they promised, were always on time and so very friendly. They even went out of their way with additional extras, running around Melbourne buying everything I needed to take the pressure off me. Would recommend you give them a try. The pricing is very reasonable and affordable, and nothing was too big for them to do. Father and son service, fantastic team."

Kitchen and outdoor renovations

"We initially talked to Smarter Home Renovations due to their reputation and experience. Plus we were referred to them through someone who had already updated their laundry and they were rapt. Tony was personable, a good listener and made sure he understood our needs. He was very flexible in negotiations, ensuring a win-win outcome. The team were highly professional and excellent communicators making sure the work was completed on schedule and to budget. We now have an attractive and spacious family home which we have no intention of leaving! My wife and I would not hesitate to recommend Tony from Smarter Home Renovations."

Our Process

How It Works

Meet & Greet

We visit your property, assess the site, understand how you want to use the space, and make sure we're the right team before you commit to anything.

Design & Plan

We put together a design covering layout, materials, structural requirements, and any permits needed, with a clear picture of what the finished space will look like.

Fixed-Price Quote

A detailed, itemised quote with no hidden costs. We factor in council permits, structural engineering (if required), and all trades from the start.

Build & Handover

Our team completes the build to schedule. You'll have one point of contact throughout, and we clean up completely before handing over.

FAQ

Outdoor Living Questions

Common questions about decks, pergolas and outdoor entertaining areas. Still have one? Give us a call.

Ask Us Anything
It depends on the size, height and position of the deck. In Victoria, decks under 1 metre high and within certain setback distances from boundaries generally don't require a building permit. Larger decks, raised decks, and decks attached to the house often do. We assess your site early in the process and handle any permits required, so you won't need to navigate the council yourself.
