Elephant & Castle’s regeneration has brought new terraces, podium gardens and smart courtyards—ideal settings for composite decking that stays looking sharp year-round. We build premium decks with composite boards, hidden fixings and crisp edging for a polished finish. Whether you’re near Elephant Park or walking distance to Strata Tower, we tailor the layout to your space and how you use it. The result is a practical, slip-resistant surface that’s easy to live with.
Homes in this part of the London Borough of Southwark range from Victorian terraces in Kennington and Walworth to new-build apartments around SE1 and SE17. We design decking that complements each style—warm wood tones for period gardens, or contemporary greys for modern developments. Where space is tight, we can integrate steps, planters and built-in seating to maximise every square metre. For raised areas, we add balustrades that meet safety expectations without spoiling the view.
Our process starts with a site visit, levels check and clear design options, then we provide a detailed written quote. We prepare stable subframes, ensure proper drainage and ventilation, and install boards with hidden fixings for a clean, barefoot-friendly finish. You’ll receive product warranties plus our own 10-year workmanship warranty for peace of mind. Homeowners choose us because we communicate clearly, work tidily and deliver a finish that lasts.
Access can be challenging around Elephant & Castle Shopping Centre and nearby main roads, so we plan deliveries, loading and waste removal carefully. Many properties have compact gardens, shared access routes or podium terraces, which calls for tidy, low-noise working and precise cutting. We also factor in Southwark expectations on boundaries, drainage and overlooking when adding balustrades or raised platforms. If permits or parking suspensions are needed, we’ll advise early to keep the programme on track.
Rated 4.9/5 from over 280 verified reviews
Composite decking prices in Elephant & Castle typically range from about £160–£280 per m² installed, depending on board brand, subframe specification and site access. Extras such as balustrades, steps, built-in seating and lighting can add £500–£3,000+ depending on complexity. Smaller courtyards can cost more per m² due to detailed cutting and restricted access. We provide a written, itemised quote after a site visit.
Most composite decking installations take 2–5 days once materials are on site. A simple, single-level deck in a clear garden is often completed in 2–3 days, while multi-level decks with steps, seating, balustrades and lighting can take 5–10 days. Timescales depend on ground preparation, subframe work, drainage adjustments, and access for deliveries—particularly common with apartments and tight routes in SE1 and SE17.
In many cases, garden decking is permitted development, especially when it’s low level and doesn’t significantly raise the ground. However, rules can change for flats, listed buildings, conservation areas, or where the deck is elevated and needs balustrades. Southwark may also have requirements around overlooking, boundaries and drainage. We’ll review your site, advise on likely permissions, and can help you prepare information for the council if needed.
We supply composite boards that come with manufacturer warranties (often 10–25 years, depending on the range) covering issues such as excessive fading, staining or structural defects, subject to their terms. On top of that, Fine Landscaping provides a 10-year workmanship warranty covering installation quality—subframe construction, fixings, alignment and overall build. We also explain care guidelines so your deck performs as intended for years.
You can choose from grooved or woodgrain-effect composite boards in popular colours like graphite, teak, oak and light grey. We can design picture-frame borders, diagonal patterns, curved edges, and multi-level layouts to suit tight courtyards or larger gardens. Options include hidden fixings, matching fascia boards, balustrades in composite or aluminium, and built-in LED step or perimeter lighting. We’ll recommend finishes based on sun exposure, foot traffic and your property style.
