A well-built deck transforms how you use your garden, whether it’s for family dinners or a quiet coffee. We design and install bespoke decking across SW18, including Wandsworth Town and Southfields. From simple platforms to multi-level layouts, we create clean lines, safe edges and a finish that suits your home. Many clients ask for practical extras such as lighting, balustrades and integrated seating.
Wandsworth homes range from Victorian and Edwardian houses with long, narrow gardens to modern riverside apartments needing compact, low-maintenance terraces. Our decking designs work with typical London plot shapes, changes in level and existing patios. We regularly build raised decking to create a flat, usable area where lawns slope or drainage falls away. If you’re near Wandsworth Common or King George's Park, we can match styles that complement period brickwork and contemporary extensions alike.
We start with a site visit to measure levels, check access and discuss how you want to use the space. You’ll receive clear options on materials, board direction, edging details and safety features, plus guidance on slip resistance and ventilation. Our team works efficiently, keeps disruption down, and leaves the site tidy at the end of each day. Fine Landscaping is based just 20 minutes away, and homeowners choose us for reliable scheduling, solid workmanship and a 10-year warranty.
In the London Borough of Wandsworth, access can be tight and parking controlled, especially around East Hill and busy routes near Southside Shopping Centre. We plan deliveries, waste removal and working hours to minimise disruption. Many gardens have clay-heavy ground and mature tree roots, so we choose appropriate foundations and allow for drainage and ventilation under the deck. We also tailor designs to period rear elevations and modern balconies, ensuring safe transitions and tidy thresholds.
Rated 4.9/5 from over 280 verified reviews
Decking costs in Wandsworth vary by material, height, access and detailing. As a guide, softwood decking often starts around £120–£180 per m², hardwood around £180–£280 per m², and composite typically £200–£320 per m². Raised or multi-level builds, balustrades, steps, built-in seating and lighting will increase the total. We provide a detailed, itemised quote after a site survey.
Most standard decking projects take 2–5 days once materials are on site. Larger raised or multi-level decks with steps, balustrades, lighting and seating can take 1–2 weeks. Timescales depend on ground preparation, drainage adjustments, the complexity of the frame, and access for carrying materials through the property. We confirm a schedule before starting and keep you updated if weather affects progress.
Many garden decking projects are permitted development, particularly when the deck is low and doesn’t significantly raise ground levels. However, rules can change for raised decking, properties in conservation areas, flats, or where there are boundary and privacy considerations. We’ll advise during the survey and can help you understand what may need approval. If required, we’ll recommend checking with Wandsworth Council before work begins.
We provide a 10-year warranty on our decking installation workmanship, covering structural integrity of the subframe, fixings and build quality when used and maintained correctly. Manufacturer warranties apply separately to decking boards (especially composite), and we’ll explain the terms for your chosen product. We also provide aftercare guidance on cleaning, staining or oiling where relevant. If an issue arises, we respond promptly and put it right.
We install softwood, hardwood and composite decking, each suited to different budgets and maintenance preferences. Design options include raised decking, multi-level layouts, picture-frame borders, concealed fixings, and contrasting steps or fascia boards. Many Wandsworth clients add balustrades for safety, built-in seating for entertaining, and low-glare lighting for evening use. We’ll help you choose based on sun exposure, slip resistance, colour, and how you use the space.
