Peckham’s gardens are used hard—summer entertaining, kids’ play, and quiet coffee breaks after a walk through Peckham Rye Park. Our timber decking creates a level, comfortable surface for dining and lounging, even where lawns struggle. We install softwood, hardwood and treated timber decks with clean edges and safe transitions. If you’re near Peckham Library or around SE15, we’ll tailor the layout to your space and access.
We work across Victorian terraces in Nunhead, Georgian houses near Camberwell, and converted warehouses by the Bussey Building and Copeland Park. These property types often come with narrow side returns, changes in ground level, and shaded corners—perfect scenarios for a well-planned deck. We can add grooved boards for extra grip, plus steps and balustrades for safe movement between levels. Built-in seating is a popular choice where space is tight but hosting matters.
Our process starts with a site visit to measure levels, check drainage and discuss how you want to use the area. We specify the right subframe, fixings and treated timber to reduce movement and extend lifespan, then finish with neat detailing around walls and planters. Every deck is installed with durability in mind, followed by optional staining for colour and protection. Homeowners choose us for clear communication, tidy working practices and a 10-year warranty on workmanship.
In the timber decking Peckham area, we often find mixed ground conditions and older garden walls that need careful fixing and load planning. Access can be tight around SE15 terraces, so we plan deliveries and cutting to minimise disruption. We also consider drainage and run-off so water doesn’t pool against the house. If any council considerations apply in the timber decking in London Borough of Southwark, we’ll flag them early and advise on next steps.

Costs vary with size, access and timber choice. As a guide in SE15, softwood decking typically starts from around £120–£180 per m² installed, while hardwood is often £180–£280+ per m². Extras such as steps, balustrades, built-in seating, lighting prep, and staining will increase the total. We provide a written, itemised quote after a site survey so you can compare options confidently.
Most domestic decking projects take 2–5 days once materials are on site. A small courtyard deck may be completed in 1–2 days, while larger multi-level designs with steps, balustrades or built-in seating can take a week or more. Timescales depend on ground preparation, levelling, access for waste removal, and drying time if staining is included. We’ll agree a schedule before work begins.
Timber decking is often permitted development, particularly when it sits low and doesn’t significantly raise ground levels. However, rules can change for flats, listed buildings, conservation areas, or where the deck affects privacy and boundaries. In the London Borough of Southwark we’ll check the basics with you, advise on height and balustrade considerations, and recommend contacting the council if anything looks borderline. We aim to keep designs compliant from the outset.
We provide a 10-year warranty on workmanship for our decking installations, covering issues such as structural fixing failures and installation-related defects. Timber itself is a natural material, so seasonal movement and weathering are expected; we’ll advise on care to keep it looking its best. Many treated timber products also include manufacturer guarantees, which we’ll pass on and explain. Regular cleaning and re-staining helps maximise lifespan.
You can choose from treated softwood for value, or hardwood for a premium finish and durability. Board options include grooved boards for extra grip or smooth boards for a cleaner look, plus matching fascia boards for sharp edges. We can incorporate steps, balustrades, planters and built-in seating to suit awkward levels or entertaining spaces. We’ll help you select colours and stains that complement brickwork, paving and garden planting.
