Balham gardens often need smart, space-efficient upgrades that look great year-round. We design and install composite decking that works for everything from morning coffees near Bedford Hill to entertaining after a stroll on Tooting Bec Common. Expect clean lines, secure steps, and optional balustrades for raised areas. We’re only around 15 minutes away, so surveys and follow-ups are easy to arrange.
As experienced composite decking contractors Balham area homeowners rely on, we’re used to the quirks of Victorian terraces, Edwardian houses and mansion conversions across SW12. Narrow side access, changes in levels and existing paving are common, especially around Balham Hill and Nightingale. We plan boards, joists and drainage details to suit the property, not the other way around. The result is a deck that feels like it belongs with the architecture.
Our process starts with a site visit, clear design options and a written specification. We install premium composite boards with hidden fixings for a tidy, barefoot-friendly finish, then add seating, steps or built-in lighting where it improves usability. Every build is completed with careful edging, ventilation and robust subframe detailing. Clients choose us for reliable scheduling, neat workmanship and a straightforward 10-year workmanship warranty.
Balham plots can be compact, with tight access and limited on-street parking near Balham station and Balham High Road. We plan deliveries, cutting and waste removal to minimise disruption and keep neighbours onside. Ground levels and existing patios often need careful setting-out so water drains correctly away from the house. As composite decking contractors in London Borough of Wandsworth, we also factor in boundary lines and overlooking when designing balustrades and raised areas.
Rated 4.9/5 from over 280 verified reviews
Composite decking in Balham typically ranges from about £180–£320 per m² installed, depending on board grade, subframe type and access. Raised or multi-level decks with steps, balustrades, built-in seating or lighting can push costs to £350–£500+ per m² in sections. Smaller gardens around SW12 may have higher per-metre rates due to set-up and waste removal. We provide a detailed, itemised quote after a site survey.
Most composite decking projects take 2–5 days on site for a straightforward area, with larger or multi-level builds often taking 1–2 weeks. Timescales depend on access (common with terraces), groundwork requirements, and whether we’re adding steps, seating, balustrades or built-in lighting. Weather can also affect subframe and ground preparation. After the survey, we’ll confirm a realistic programme and keep you updated throughout.
In many cases, garden decking is permitted development, particularly when it’s low level and doesn’t significantly raise the ground. However, rules can change if the deck is high, close to boundaries, affects drainage, or the property is listed or in a conservation area. We’ll flag any risk areas during the survey and can advise on whether you should speak to Wandsworth Council or submit an application before work begins.
We back our workmanship with a 10-year warranty, covering installation issues such as fixings, subframe integrity and fitting defects when the deck has been used and maintained normally. Composite boards themselves usually come with a manufacturer warranty (often 15–25 years depending on the range). We’ll explain what’s covered, provide care guidance, and keep records of the materials used so you have everything in writing.
You can choose from a wide range of composite board colours and textures, including contemporary greys, warm browns and woodgrain finishes. We also offer picture-frame borders, diagonal detailing, hidden fixings, and matching fascia boards for a sharp edge. For raised areas, we can add balustrades, integrated steps, and built-in lighting. We’ll recommend options that suit your home’s style and how you use the garden.
