Those compact Battersea gardens deserve decking that works as hard as you do. Composite boards bring the warmth of timber without the weekend maintenance marathon.
Response within 24 hours
Victorian conversions around Battersea Park Road often surprise with their awkwardly shaped rear spaces. Composite decking adapts brilliantly to these quirky plots, creating usable outdoor rooms where traditional materials struggle. The material's flexibility means even those narrow side returns common in SW11 terraces become entertaining spots rather than wasted corridors.
Modern composite boards blend recycled plastics with wood fibres, creating planks that resist the Thames-side humidity better than pure timber ever could. Installation involves hidden fastening systems that eliminate visible screws, while integrated expansion gaps prevent the warping that plagues wooden decks near the river. Each board carries anti-slip properties crucial for those dewy Battersea mornings when you're rushing for the 8:15 from Clapham Junction.
Twenty years fitting decks between Lavender Hill and Albert Bridge has taught us which products actually survive London weather. Every installation starts with proper groundwork because SW11's clay soil shifts more than most homeowners realise.

Most rear gardens in SW11 run 20-40 square metres, putting composite decking between £3,500-£7,000 including groundwork. Larger Nine Elms penthouses might reach £12,000 for wraparound terraces.
Absolutely - from the period properties along Prince of Wales Drive to new-builds in Nine Elms, we've fitted decking across SW11 and neighbouring Chelsea borders.
Typical Battersea gardens take 3-5 days from excavation to completion. Larger projects near Wandsworth Common might stretch to a week if drainage needs addressing.
