A well-built deck turns an awkward patch of lawn into a proper outdoor room for dining, lounging and entertaining. We install decking for homes across SW4 and SW11, including Clapham North and Clapham Old Town. Whether you’re close to Clapham Common or a short walk from Clapham Junction station, we’ll create a finish that suits the property and the way you use the garden.
Clapham’s mix of Georgian townhouses, Victorian terraces and modern apartments often comes with compact gardens, split levels and tight side access. We’re used to working around basement lightwells, bay-window footprints and existing patios. Our designs maximise usable space, improve flow from the rear doors, and keep maintenance practical for busy households.
We start with a site visit to check levels, drainage and access, then provide a clear specification and itemised quotation. Installation includes a solid subframe, correct ventilation and clean detailing around edges, steps and thresholds. You’ll get tidy working practices, careful waste removal, and a 10-year workmanship warranty for peace of mind. Many clients choose us for reliable scheduling and a finish that stays stable through London weather.
We regularly work across the decking Clapham area, where access can be narrow and parking restrictions are common. Ground levels vary, so we design subframes to handle falls and keep water moving away from the house. For projects in decking in London Borough of Lambeth/Wandsworth, we also factor in boundary lines, party walls and considerate working hours. The result is a deck that fits the property style and complies with practical local constraints.

In Clapham, decking typically costs £100–£200 per square metre depending on material, height and detailing. Most homeowners spend around £2,500–£8,000 for a complete installation, including the subframe and fixings. Softwood is usually the most budget-friendly, while hardwood and composite sit higher due to material cost and longevity. Raised or multi-level designs, steps and lighting will increase the overall spend.
Most decking installations take 3–5 days once materials are on site and access is confirmed. Smaller, straightforward ground-level decks can be quicker, while raised or multi-level layouts take longer due to extra framing, steps and balustrades. Timescales can also change if the ground needs preparation, old paving must be removed, or we’re working through restricted access typical of Victorian terraces. We’ll confirm a realistic schedule after surveying.
Many garden decking projects fall under permitted development, especially when they’re low level and not altering the front of the property. Planning permission may be needed for higher raised decks, balconies, or where the property is listed or in a conservation area. Requirements can differ between Lambeth and Wandsworth, so we check heights, boundaries and any constraints before you commit. If approvals are needed, we can advise on the next steps.
We provide a 10-year workmanship warranty on our decking installations. This covers the quality of installation, including the subframe construction, fixings, and key structural detailing when the deck is used and maintained as advised. Manufacturer warranties on boards can vary by product, particularly for composite ranges, and we’ll explain those options clearly. If an issue arises, we respond promptly and aim to resolve it with minimal disruption.
We install softwood decking, hardwood decking and composite decking, each with different looks, maintenance needs and budgets. Design options include raised decking for uneven gardens, multi-level layouts to zone seating and dining, and decking with lighting for steps and evening ambience. We’ll help you choose board colour, width and direction, plus edge details and any built-in planters or benches. The goal is a deck that suits your home and daily routine.
