A well-designed deck can transform how you use your garden in Streatham, from morning coffee space to evening entertaining. We build premium decking that suits everything from compact courtyards off Streatham High Road to wider gardens near Streatham Common. Expect clean lines, solid subframes and finishes that complement your home. We can also add balustrades, lighting and seating to make the space feel complete.
Streatham’s mix of Victorian and Edwardian houses, mansion flats and newer apartments calls for careful design and practical detailing. We regularly work in Streatham Hill and Streatham Vale where gardens can be long, sloped or overlooked, so privacy screens and balustrades often matter. For period properties, we’ll match proportions and materials so the deck feels like it belongs. For modern homes, composite and sleek lighting details are popular for low maintenance.
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, edging, steps and any raised or multi-level elements, plus a tidy, scheduled installation. Our builds use proper foundations, fixings and ventilation to reduce movement and prolong lifespan. Homeowners choose us for straightforward communication, meticulous workmanship and a finish that stays looking smart.
As decking contractors in London Borough of Lambeth, we’re used to tight access routes, controlled parking and shared pathways around SW16 and SW2. Many Streatham gardens have clay-heavy ground and mature trees, so we plan footings and drainage carefully to avoid future movement. Where properties sit on slopes, we design raised frames and steps for safe, comfortable transitions. We also keep neighbours in mind with considerate working hours and tidy site management.

Decking prices in Streatham vary by material, height, access and detailing. As a guide, softwood decking often starts around £120–£180 per m², hardwood typically £180–£280+ per m², and composite commonly £170–£300+ per m². Raised or multi-level builds, steps, balustrades, built-in seating and lighting will increase costs. We provide a tailored quote after a site visit and measurement.
Most decking installations take 2–5 days once materials are on site, depending on size and complexity. A small, straightforward deck can be completed in a couple of days, while raised or multi-level decking with steps, balustrades, seating and lighting may take 1–2 weeks. Timescales are affected by ground preparation, drainage work, access for deliveries, and whether we’re working around existing patios or planting.
In many cases, garden decking is permitted development, especially when it’s close to ground level. Planning permission may be needed if the deck is significantly raised, affects privacy, or your property is listed or within a conservation area. Rules can also apply to balustrades, screens and boundary treatments. We’ll discuss your design, check the likely requirements for Lambeth, and help you take the right approach before work begins.
We provide a 10-year workmanship warranty on our decking installations, covering issues caused by installation faults such as subframe construction, fixings and structural stability. Material warranties vary by product and manufacturer, particularly for composite boards and lighting components, and we’ll explain these clearly before you choose. To protect your deck long term, we also advise on cleaning, ventilation and maintenance for your chosen material.
We install softwood, hardwood and composite decking, with options for smooth or grooved boards and hidden or face fixings depending on the system. Design choices include raised decking, multi-level layouts, wide steps, and balustrades for safety and definition. Many Streatham homeowners add built-in seating and low-glare lighting for evening use. We’ll help you select colours, edging and layout to suit your home and how you use the garden.
