Those compact Victorian gardens throughout Thornton Heath deserve decking that lasts. Modern composite boards bring durability to even the smallest spaces, turning narrow plots into stunning outdoor retreats.

Victorian terraces dominate CR7's residential streets, where space comes at a premium. Composite decking maximises every square metre, creating elevated platforms that work brilliantly with sloped gardens common around Selhurst and South Norwood. Unlike traditional timber that weathers poorly in London's damp climate, these engineered boards resist moisture, mould, and the constant foot traffic from busy family life.
Installation begins with precise ground assessment, particularly important given Thornton Heath's clay-heavy soil. Steel subframes compensate for uneven terrain, while hidden fastening systems eliminate visible screws. Each board locks seamlessly into place, creating surfaces that won't splinter, warp, or fade. The material itself combines recycled wood fibres with polymer resins, producing planks that mimic natural grain patterns whilst outlasting timber by decades.
Years spent working across Broad Green's varied housing stock taught us which products survive London weather. Homeowners trust our knowledge of local planning requirements, especially for properties backing onto the railway lines where privacy screens need careful consideration.

Most Thornton Heath properties see costs between £4,500-£8,000, depending on garden complexity. Smaller courtyards start around £3,000, while larger Victorian plots with multiple levels might reach £12,000.
Absolutely - from the period properties near Brigstock Road to newer developments towards Bensham Manor, we work throughout CR7 and neighbouring South Norwood districts.
Standard installations complete within 3-5 days, though complex gardens with poor access might need a full week. Weather rarely delays composite work unlike timber projects.
Premium composite boards carry decade-long warranties against structural defects, colour fading, and material degradation - protection you'd never get with pressure-treated pine or hardwood alternatives.
Engineered composite boards support substantial loads when properly installed with reinforced substructures. Most systems handle 500kg per square metre, accommodating hot tubs, dining sets, and BBQ stations comfortably.
