A well-designed deck makes outdoor space easier to use for dining, play and entertaining. We install decking across BR4, including homes near West Wickham High Street and Coney Hall. Whether you want a simple step-out platform or a raised deck to level a sloping lawn, we’ll tailor the layout to your garden. Expect clean edges, solid subframes and a finish that suits your property.
West Wickham has plenty of 1930s semis and detached houses with generous rear gardens, plus newer developments where space needs to work harder. We regularly design decks that connect patio doors to the lawn, create seating zones, or add privacy screening. If you’re in Hayes, Keston or Shirley, we’ll factor in overlooking, boundary lines and how you actually move through the garden. The result feels like an extension of the house, not an afterthought.
Our process starts with a site visit, measurements and clear options on materials, levels and lighting. We build on a properly supported subframe, using fixings and spacings suited to the chosen boards, then finish with neat trims and safe steps. You’ll get a written scope, tidy working practices and straightforward communication throughout. Local homeowners choose us for dependable timelines, premium workmanship and a 10-year warranty.
We’re used to access and parking constraints around West Wickham High Street and nearby residential roads, so deliveries and waste removal are planned carefully. Gardens here often have clay-heavy ground, so we design subframes and supports to stay stable through wet winters. For decking in London Borough of Bromley, we also consider drainage, boundaries and any nearby trees that may affect levels. Our approach keeps the build compliant, practical and long-lasting.

For most projects, budgeting £100–£200 per square metre is sensible, depending on materials and complexity. Typical total costs are around £2,500–£8,000 for a standard family garden deck in BR4. Softwood is usually the most affordable, while hardwood and composite cost more but can reduce upkeep. Raised frames, multi-level layouts, steps, balustrades and lighting will also increase the overall spend.
Most decking installations take 3–5 days from start to finish, assuming reasonable access and settled weather. The timeline depends on the size of the deck, whether it’s raised, and how much groundwork is needed to create a stable base. Extras such as integrated lighting, multiple levels, built-in seating or complex steps can add time. We’ll confirm a clear schedule after the site survey and measurements.
In many cases, garden decking is permitted development, particularly when it’s at ground level and doesn’t significantly raise the platform. Planning can be required for higher raised decks, balconies, or where there are restrictions such as conservation considerations or listed buildings. We’ll advise during the survey and can help you understand what applies to your property in Bromley. If needed, we’ll recommend the right route before work begins.
We provide a 10-year warranty on workmanship for our decking installations, covering issues such as structural integrity, fixings and installation-related movement. This gives you confidence that the subframe, supports and finishing details have been built correctly. Material warranties vary by product, especially for composite boards and lighting components, and we’ll explain those options clearly. Regular cleaning and basic care help keep the deck looking its best long term.
We install softwood decking for value, hardwood for a premium natural look, and composite decking for low-maintenance performance. Design options include raised decking to level uneven gardens, multi-level layouts to zone seating and dining, and edging details for a crisp finish. Many West Wickham homeowners also choose decking with lighting for steps, borders or feature areas. We’ll help you compare colours, textures and slip resistance to suit your garden use.
