Bermondsey’s converted warehouses and compact courtyards deserve outdoor surfaces that feel premium and perform year-round. We design and install timber decks that suit everything from roof terraces near London Bridge to family gardens by Bermondsey Spa Gardens. Whether you want a dining platform, a sun-trap corner, or safer access with steps and balustrades, we’ll tailor the layout to your space. Expect clean lines, solid subframes, and a finish that complements your home.
Local homes range from Victorian terraces to modern apartments, often with tight access and overlooked boundaries. We’re used to working with small, high-value spaces in SE1 and SE16 where every centimetre counts. For sheltered courtyards we’ll advise on treated timber and airflow, while exposed terraces may benefit from hardwood and careful board orientation. If you’re upgrading a tired patio, timber decking Bermondsey area homeowners choose can add warmth without feeling bulky.
We start with a site visit, measure-up, and a clear written specification covering structure, drainage gaps, and finishes. Our builds use quality treated timber subframes, correct fixings, and neat edging details, with optional staining for a richer tone and added protection. We keep disruption low, plan deliveries sensibly, and leave the space tidy and usable. Clients trust us for straightforward communication, durable workmanship, and a 10-year warranty on installation.
Outdoor spaces in the London Borough of Southwark often have restricted access, shared pathways, and controlled parking, so we plan materials and waste removal carefully. Bermondsey’s mix of riverside developments and older terraces can mean varied ground levels and existing paving that needs smart transitions. We design subframes to manage drainage and airflow, reducing the risk of damp and movement. If you’re near Tower Bridge or Rotherhithe, we’ll also consider wind exposure and choose fixings and finishes accordingly.

Costs vary by size, access, and the timber you choose. As a guide, softwood decking typically starts around £120–£180 per m² installed, while hardwood is often £180–£300+ per m². Extras such as steps, balustrades, built-in seating, lighting prep, or complex groundworks can increase the total. We’ll survey your space in SE1/SE16 and provide a detailed, itemised quote.
Most straightforward decks take 2–5 days from start to finish, depending on size and site conditions. Larger builds with multiple levels, steps, balustrades, or built-in seating can take 1–2 weeks. Timescales are also affected by access through flats or communal areas, removal of old surfaces, and whether the ground needs levelling. We confirm an expected schedule before work begins.
In many cases, garden decking is permitted development, especially when it’s low-level and doesn’t significantly raise the ground. However, rules can change for listed buildings, conservation areas, flats with lease restrictions, or roof terraces and balconies. We’ll advise during the survey and can help you understand any Southwark requirements, including boundary heights for balustrades and neighbour considerations. When needed, we’ll recommend getting written confirmation.
We provide a 10-year warranty on our installation workmanship, covering issues such as structural fixing failures or subframe problems caused by poor fitting. Timber is a natural material, so movement and colour change can occur, but we minimise this with correct spacing, ventilation, and suitable treated timber. Manufacturer warranties on boards and treatments vary by product and will be explained in your quote. We also offer aftercare advice to keep your deck performing well.
We install softwood and hardwood decking, including treated timber for improved durability. Popular choices include grooved boards for grip, smooth boards for a cleaner look, and picture-frame edging for a premium finish. We can add steps, balustrades for safety, and built-in seating to maximise smaller Bermondsey spaces. Staining is available in a range of tones to suit brickwork, render, or contemporary cladding. We’ll recommend the best option for exposure, use, and budget.
