From family gardens near Clapham Common to compact courtyards around Clapham Old Town, quality decking can transform how you use your outdoor space. We design and build softwood, hardwood and composite decks that feel solid underfoot and look right for the property. If you want a raised deck to level out a sloping plot, or subtle lighting for evenings after the Bandstand events, we’ll tailor the layout to your lifestyle. Every build is finished with clean edges, safe steps and neat detailing.
Clapham’s mix of Georgian townhouses, Victorian terraces and modern apartments often comes with tricky access and varied garden levels. We’re used to working with narrow side returns, basement lightwells and shared boundaries, especially in Clapham North and Clapham South. For period homes, we can match tones and proportions with hardwood boards and discreet balustrades. For newer builds, composite decking and integrated seating create a crisp, low-maintenance finish.
We start with a site visit to measure levels, check drainage and discuss how you want to use the space. You’ll receive clear options on materials, subframe construction and finishes, plus a schedule that respects neighbours and working hours. Our team builds on proper foundations with robust fixings and ventilation to reduce movement and prolong lifespan. Homeowners choose us for reliable communication, tidy sites and workmanship backed by a 10-year warranty.
As decking contractors in London Borough of Lambeth/Wandsworth, we plan around resident parking rules, loading restrictions and narrow access typical of SW4 and SW11 streets. Many Clapham gardens have clay-heavy soil and mature tree roots, so we choose the right foundation method and allow for drainage and airflow. We also factor in party walls, boundary lines and overlooking neighbours when positioning screens or balustrades. The result is a deck that suits local property styles and stands up to year-round use.

Costs vary by size, access and material. In Clapham, softwood decking commonly starts around £120–£180 per m² installed, hardwood is often £180–£260 per m², and composite typically £200–£320 per m². Raised or multi-level decks, steps, balustrades, built-in seating and lighting increase the total. We provide a detailed breakdown after a site survey, so you can compare options confidently.
Most straightforward decks take 2–5 days once materials are on site. Larger builds, raised platforms, multi-level layouts or extensive lighting and seating usually take 1–2 weeks. Timescales depend on ground preparation, drainage work, access for deliveries, and whether we’re working around existing patios, trees or basement areas. We’ll confirm a realistic programme after measuring levels and agreeing the final design and materials.
Many garden decking projects are permitted development, especially when the deck is low and doesn’t significantly raise the ground level. However, rules can change if the deck is elevated, affects privacy, or if the property is listed or in a conservation area near places like Clapham Old Town. We’ll discuss heights, balustrades and boundaries, and help you check Lambeth or Wandsworth requirements before work begins.
We provide a 10-year workmanship warranty on our decking installations, covering issues such as structural integrity, fixings, and defects arising from installation. Materials may also carry manufacturer warranties, particularly for composite boards and lighting components, and we’ll explain those terms clearly. To keep your deck performing well, we advise on cleaning, ventilation and seasonal care. If a problem arises, we respond promptly and put it right.
