Timber Decking, Pergolas & Outdoor Timber Construction in Durban
Beautifully built outdoor timber spaces designed for Durban conditions and made to last.

Why Choose The Wood Joint?
The Structure Matters
We pay close attention to supports, joist and bearer layout, treatment level, moisture, ventilation, drainage and fixing methods.
Materials Chosen for the Job
Treated structural pine and durable hardwood boards such as balau combine sensible cost with outdoor performance.
Built Around Your Property
Each project is measured and designed around the actual house, pool, garden, levels and existing structures.
