Norbury SW16 · Composite decking

Your garden, considered
Composite boards do not need staining or oiling, but they are only as good as the frame under them. Every composite deck we build sits on a new timber frame levelled across the whole area, and on our Kennington job every joist also got DPC tape and the boards were clipped down with hidden fixings.
Most Norbury gardens are on clay, and the frame needs to stay clear of that damp ground, so a membrane goes down first and the frame is built to let air through.
A mile away in Thornton Heath, we fitted composite decking all the way round Linsey's garden office, with astro grass around the deck, in four days.

Materials & possibilities
The board is only part of it. These details decide how a composite deck looks and lasts.
Composite boards span between joists, so the frame decides whether the deck stays flat. We build new timber frames, protect the joists with DPC tape where needed and set the frame on posts in concrete or a level base, rather than straight onto wet soil.
From first ideas to finishing touches
We check levels, doors, drainage and what is underneath.
We bring composite samples and agree colour and finish.
Membrane, new timber frame, boards and fascias fitted.
Deck cleaned, edges checked, waste taken away.
Documented project · South Norwood SE25 · 1.5 miles from Norbury
In South Norwood, about a mile and a half from Norbury, Trevor's garden was stripped back and rebuilt over two weeks. Part of it is a 4m x 4m composite deck on a new timber frame, alongside a curved beige porcelain patio, a rendered retaining wall and a new lawn with circular beds. Drag the slider to compare.
