A well-built deck turns a Wimbledon garden into a practical outdoor room for dining, entertaining and relaxing. We design and install decking that suits everything from compact plots in South Wimbledon to larger gardens near Wimbledon Common. Whether you want a clean, modern finish or a traditional timber look, we tailor the layout to your levels, planting and access. We regularly work across SW19 and SW20, including Wimbledon Village and Wimbledon Park.
Wimbledon’s mix of large Victorian houses, Edwardian villas and exclusive modern homes calls for materials and detailing that feel considered. Period properties often benefit from warm-toned hardwood or quality softwood with neat edging, while contemporary builds pair beautifully with composite boards and integrated lighting. We also plan around common garden features such as mature trees, side returns and patio thresholds. The result is a deck that complements the architecture rather than competing with it.
We start with a site visit to measure, check levels and discuss how you’ll use the space. Next comes a clear specification covering subframe, fixings, drainage gaps, steps and any balustrades, so there are no surprises. Our builds prioritise strong foundations, clean lines and safe, non-slip detailing, with tidy working practices throughout. Homeowners choose us for straightforward communication, reliable scheduling and workmanship backed by a 10-year warranty.
In the Wimbledon area, we often encounter clay-heavy ground, mature roots and uneven levels, especially near Wimbledon Common. We adapt subframes and footings to keep the deck stable and well-ventilated, helping reduce movement and moisture issues. Access can be tight around side passages in Victorian and Edwardian homes, so we plan deliveries and cutting areas carefully. Where required, we work considerately with neighbours and keep noise and disruption controlled.

For decking in Wimbledon, most homeowners budget £100–£200 per square metre depending on material, subframe specification and site conditions. Typical projects come in around £2,500–£8,000, with raised or multi-level builds, steps, balustrades and integrated lighting increasing the overall cost. Softwood is usually the most economical, while hardwood and composite tend to sit at the higher end for longevity and finish.
Most decking installations take 3–5 days from start to finish, assuming straightforward access and a clear working area. Timescales can extend if the garden needs extra groundwork, if you’re choosing raised or multi-level decking, or if we’re adding lighting, steps or bespoke joinery. Weather can also affect progress, particularly during subframe and footing work. We’ll confirm a realistic schedule after the site survey.
Decking is often permitted development, but rules can change depending on height, proximity to boundaries, and whether the property is listed or in a conservation area. In the London Borough of Merton, we’ll check the key factors during the survey and advise if you may need permission or building control input, especially for higher raised decks or balustrades. If approvals are required, we can help you prepare the information needed.
We provide a 10-year warranty on our workmanship, covering issues such as structural integrity of the subframe, fixings and installation-related defects. Materials (softwood, hardwood or composite boards, and lighting components) may also carry manufacturer warranties, which vary by product. We’ll explain what applies to your chosen specification and how to maintain the deck to protect performance over time. Any snagging is handled promptly and professionally.
We install softwood, hardwood and composite decking, and can create raised platforms, multi-level layouts, wide steps and integrated lighting. For a natural look, hardwood is popular; for value and versatility, treated softwood works well; for low maintenance, composite is a strong choice. We’ll help you choose board width, colour, edge details and direction of lay to suit your garden shape, drainage needs and the style of your home.
