Herne Hill homeowners love outdoor living, whether it’s after a walk in Brockwell Park or a quick stop at the Sunday market. Our composite decking installations are designed to look sharp year-round, without the constant sanding and staining. We build clean, modern decks that complement SE24 gardens and make the most of every metre. Expect precise lines, tidy edges, and a finish that feels genuinely premium.
Around Herne Hill, we regularly work with Victorian terraces, Edwardian houses and period conversions where garden levels, narrow side access and existing paving can complicate a build. We design decking that sits comfortably against brickwork, bay windows and traditional garden layouts. Whether you’re near Herne Hill station or closer to Dulwich and Brixton borders, we tailor the structure and layout to your property. The result is a deck that feels like it belongs, not an add-on.
We start with a site survey, discuss how you’ll use the space, then produce a clear plan for boards, steps, seating and lighting. Our team installs a robust subframe, uses hidden fixings for a smooth surface, and finishes with details like balustrades where needed. We keep you informed on timings, deliveries and access, and we leave the garden clean at handover. Local clients choose us for consistent workmanship, transparent advice, and dependable warranties.
Gardens across the London Borough of Lambeth/Southwark often have mixed ground conditions, older retaining walls, and changes in level that need careful setting-out. Access can be tight behind terraces, so we plan board lengths, deliveries and waste removal to minimise disruption. We also consider drainage and ventilation beneath the deck to protect the subframe and keep surfaces stable. Our approach suits SE24 properties and the practical realities of local streets and parking.




Rated 4.9/5 from over 280 verified reviews
Costs in Herne Hill typically range from £160–£280 per m² supplied and installed, depending on board grade, subframe specification and site access. Multi-level builds, steps, balustrades, built-in seating and integrated lighting add to the overall figure. Smaller gardens can have a higher per‑m² rate due to set-up time and cutting. We’ll provide a detailed breakdown after a site visit in SE24.
Most projects take 2–5 days once materials are on site. A straightforward, single-level deck with clear access is often completed within a long weekend, while multi-level decks with steps, seating, balustrades or lighting can take 1–2 weeks. Timescales depend on ground preparation, demolition of old decking, subframe complexity, and weather. We confirm a schedule before starting and keep disruption to a minimum.
In many cases, garden decking is permitted development, especially when it’s at ground level and doesn’t materially raise the height of the garden. However, rules can change for raised platforms, balconies, listed buildings and some conversions, and there may be considerations around boundaries and privacy screening. We’ll flag any potential issues during the survey and can advise what to check with Lambeth or Southwark before work begins.
We provide a 10-year workmanship warranty on our composite decking installations, covering installation-related issues such as fixings, subframe integrity and fitting standards. Composite boards also come with manufacturer warranties (varies by brand and range) covering defects such as excessive fading or structural failure under normal use. We’ll explain what’s included, how to maintain your deck, and keep your paperwork for future peace of mind.
You can choose from a wide range of colours and finishes, including woodgrain or contemporary grooved boards, plus matching fascia and edging. We can add hidden fixings, balustrades, picture-frame borders, built-in seating, and LED step or perimeter lighting. For sloping gardens, multi-level decks with wide steps work particularly well. We’ll help you select options that suit your home’s style and how you plan to use the space.
