Timber-Look Concrete
The look of a deck. None of the upkeep.
Timber-look concrete is stamped with real board textures and coloured in layers to mimic decking — without splinters, termites, rot or oiling. It’s ideal for pool surrounds, patios and entry paths where you want warmth and texture that lasts.
Often chosen with stamped / patterned concrete, decorative concrete, pool surrounds.

Timber-Look Concrete questions, answered
Does it really look like timber?
Up close it reads as textured, layered timber. We show you finished samples and photos so you can judge before choosing.
Is it hot underfoot?
Lighter, weathered tones stay much cooler than dark hardwood colours. We’ll recommend a palette for sunny areas.
How is the timber grain made?
We press timber-grain stamping mats into coloured concrete, then add a release colour that settles into the grain and joints to give the look of weathered boards.
Will timber-look concrete rot or need oiling?
No. It is concrete, so it won’t rot, splinter or attract termites. It only needs a reseal every few years to keep the colour fresh.
Where does timber-look concrete work best?
Alfresco areas, pool decks and garden paths where you want the look of a deck at ground level without the upkeep of real timber.
