Streatham SW16 · Composite decking
A deck you only need to wash.
As local composite decking installers from Norbury next door, we fit composite decks across Streatham using boards such as Millboard and Trex, always on a new timber frame. Our nearest composite jobs, in Brixton and South Norwood, are below.

Your garden, considered
Composite suits people who want the garden to look good without a weekend of sanding and oiling every year. In Brixton, under three miles from Streatham, Caroline's bare soil area became around 25m² of Millboard Enhanced Grain decking on a new timber frame, finished with edge and fascia boards.
Streatham's gardens are mostly clay soil, so we keep the frame off the wet ground, with a membrane underneath and a frame built level across the whole area.
Composite also works alongside other surfaces: at Kristina's home between Brixton and Tulse Hill the old timber deck was replaced with composite on a new frame, with the wall behind clad to match and new artificial grass beside it.

Materials & possibilities
We have fitted several composite ranges. The choice comes down to the look, the colour and the budget.
Composite boards can cover more than the deck. At Kristina's home the wall behind the new deck was clad to match, and in Greenwich Michelle's raised deck and its three steps were clad all round in the same grey composite, so no frame shows anywhere.
