Brixton gardens come in all shapes and sizes, from compact courtyards off Electric Avenue to wider plots near Herne Hill. Fine Landscaping designs and installs decking that creates usable space for dining, relaxing and summer hosting. We can add steps, balustrades and discreet lighting for safer evening use. Expect a clean, well-finished result that suits the character of your outdoor area.
Working across SW2 and SW9, we’re used to the mix of Victorian terraces, Georgian houses and modern developments found around Brixton Hill and Stockwell. Many homes have level changes, basement patios or narrow side access, which influences layout and material choice. We design decking that feels proportionate, improves flow from the back door, and complements period brickwork or contemporary finishes. The aim is a terrace you’ll actually use, not just look at.
Our process starts with a site visit, measurements and a clear recommendation on structure, drainage and finishes. We build on a properly prepared subframe, use corrosion-resistant fixings, and keep edges and joins crisp for a premium look. You’ll receive a written scope of works, realistic timescales, and tidy working practices throughout. Local homeowners choose us for reliable communication, careful craftsmanship and a 10-year warranty.
Decking in the Brixton area often needs smart planning around tight access, shared boundaries and on-street parking. We schedule deliveries to minimise disruption and work efficiently in narrower gardens typical of Lambeth terraces. Ground conditions can vary, so we choose the right foundation method for stability and drainage. If your property sits close to neighbours, we also consider sightlines, noise and privacy in the design.

For most projects, decking installation sits around £100–£200 per square metre, depending on material and build complexity. A typical Brixton job is often £2,500–£8,000, covering the subframe, boards, fixings and standard finishing. Composite and hardwood usually cost more than softwood, while raised or multi-level designs, steps, and lighting can increase the overall budget.
Most decking projects take 3–5 days from start to finish, assuming straightforward access and a clear site. Timescales can extend if the deck is raised, multi-level, includes lighting, or needs significant ground preparation and levelling. Weather and delivery scheduling can also affect progress. We confirm the programme after the site survey and keep you updated as work moves through each stage.
Many garden decking projects are permitted development, but rules can change depending on height, proximity to boundaries, and whether your home is listed or in a conservation area. Raised decking is more likely to need extra checks, especially if it affects privacy or overlooks neighbours. We’ll flag any potential issues during the survey and advise if you should contact Lambeth planning before work begins.
We provide a 10-year warranty on our workmanship, covering issues such as structural movement caused by installation, subframe integrity, and fixing performance under normal use. Material warranties vary by manufacturer, particularly for composite boards, and we’ll explain what’s included before you choose. To keep your warranty valid, we also advise on simple maintenance and care for your selected decking type.
We install softwood decking for value, hardwood decking for a premium natural finish, and composite decking for low maintenance and consistent colour. Design options include raised decks, multi-level platforms, steps, balustrades, and decking with lighting for safer access after dark. We’ll help you choose board direction, edging details and colours to suit your property style and how you plan to use the space.
