If you want a refined, long-lasting deck that suits Dulwich’s period gardens, composite is a superb choice. We design and install composite decking for homes across East Dulwich and near Dulwich Park, creating clean lines and comfortable entertaining areas. Expect crisp detailing, safe edges and a finish that complements brickwork, planting and paving. Every build is tailored to how you actually use your garden.
Dulwich is known for its affluent village atmosphere and outstanding Georgian and Victorian architecture, with many large detached properties and generous rear gardens. We regularly work on Victorian terraces in SE22 and family homes around Dulwich Village, where levels, mature trees and existing patios often shape the layout. Composite decking is ideal for these settings because it stays stable, looks consistent and requires minimal upkeep. We’ll match colours and board profiles to the character of your home and garden.
Our process starts with a site survey, measured design and clear specification, then careful groundwork and a robust subframe built for longevity. We install composite boards with hidden fixings for a seamless look, and can add steps, seating, balustrades and built-in lighting for safer evenings outdoors. You’ll receive straightforward timelines, tidy working practices and product guidance for aftercare. Homeowners choose us because we deliver premium finishes backed by warranties and dependable communication.
As composite decking contractors in London Borough of Southwark, we plan builds around Dulwich’s access constraints, shared side returns and on-street parking. Many gardens have clay-heavy ground and mature roots, so we specify suitable foundations and subframes to reduce movement. We also consider drainage falls and thresholds to protect period brickwork and air bricks. Where needed, we coordinate deliveries and keep neighbours informed to minimise disruption.
Rated 4.9/5 from over 280 verified reviews
Composite decking in Dulwich typically starts from around £140–£220 per m² for supply and installation, depending on board quality, subframe specification and access. Mid-range projects with steps, edging and hidden fixings often land around £200–£320 per m². Multi-level designs, built-in seating, balustrades and lighting can increase costs. We’ll provide a detailed, itemised estimate after a site visit.
Most composite decking projects take 2–5 working days once materials are on site. A straightforward rectangular deck with good access can be completed in 2–3 days, while multi-level decks, integrated steps, seating, balustrades or lighting usually take 4–10 days. Timescales depend on groundwork, subframe complexity, drying time for any concrete footings, and how easily we can bring materials through the property.
In many cases, garden decking is permitted development, especially when it stays low and doesn’t significantly raise ground levels. However, rules can change for listed buildings, flats, maisonettes, conservation considerations, or if the deck height affects privacy and boundaries. Southwark guidance may also influence balustrade height and lighting placement. We’ll flag any potential planning or building-control issues early and help you confirm what applies to your property.
We provide a 10-year warranty on our workmanship for composite decking installations, covering issues such as fixings, subframe integrity and installation defects under normal use. Composite boards themselves usually come with manufacturer warranties (often 10–25 years, depending on the range). We’ll explain what’s covered, how to maintain your deck, and how to keep warranties valid. Any snagging is handled promptly and professionally.
You can choose from capped or uncapped composite boards, a range of colours (greys, warm browns and modern charcoals) and different textures for slip resistance. Design options include picture-frame borders, diagonal board patterns, multi-level platforms, integrated steps, built-in seating and balustrades in glass or composite. We can also add low-glare built-in lighting to steps and edges. We’ll bring samples and recommend options that suit your garden and budget.
