Richmond gardens deserve decking that looks smart and performs in all seasons, whether you’re near Richmond Green or backing onto routes towards Richmond Park. We design and install timber decks that create level entertaining space, improve access, and frame planting beautifully. From compact courtyards to generous riverside plots, we tailor layouts to how you use the garden. Expect clean lines, solid subframes and a finish that complements your home.
Across TW9 and TW10 we regularly work on Georgian townhouses, Victorian villas and contemporary riverside properties where outdoor space is a real asset. Period homes often benefit from sympathetic details such as grooved boards for grip, discreet balustrades and neatly integrated steps. Where gardens are long and narrow, we can zone the space with split-level decking and built-in seating. Material choice is guided by sun exposure, shade from mature trees, and how much maintenance you want.
We start with a site visit to measure levels, check drainage and discuss design options, then provide a clear written quotation. Your deck is built on a robust treated timber subframe with precise fixings and tidy edges, followed by staining where specified for colour and protection. We keep disruption low, plan deliveries and waste removal carefully, and leave the site clean. Homeowners choose us for reliable scheduling, craftsmanship, and a 10-year workmanship warranty.
As a team working in the timber decking Richmond area, we plan around restricted access, resident parking and delivery timing common near Richmond Bridge and busy streets. Many gardens have mature trees and mixed ground conditions, so we set correct falls and ventilation to reduce moisture issues. We also consider neighbouring boundaries and privacy, especially for raised decks. If any rules apply, we can advise on what the London Borough of Richmond upon Thames typically expects.

For Timber Decking in Richmond, typical supply-and-install costs often range from £120–£220 per m² for quality softwood, and £200–£350+ per m² for hardwoods. Extras such as steps, balustrades, built-in seating, complex shapes, or significant groundwork can increase the total. Access, waste removal, and the condition of the existing ground or old deck also affect pricing. We’ll survey and itemise everything clearly.
Most decking projects take 2–5 days once work starts, depending on size, levels and detailing. A small, straightforward deck can be completed in a couple of days, while split-level designs with steps, balustrades and built-in seating may take a week or more. Timescales are influenced by ground preparation, drainage adjustments, and drying windows for staining. We confirm a schedule after the site survey and keep you updated throughout.
Decking is often permitted development, but rules can change if the platform is significantly raised, affects privacy, or your property is listed or within a conservation area. Some riverside and period properties in Richmond have additional considerations. We’ll discuss your design, check likely constraints, and advise if a planning application or permissions are sensible. Where required, we can help you prepare the information needed before work begins.
We provide a 10-year workmanship warranty on our decking installations, covering issues arising from installation such as subframe integrity, fixings and structural stability under normal use. Timber itself is a natural material, so movement and weathering can occur, but we build in correct ventilation and falls to minimise problems. Many timber products also include manufacturer guarantees, depending on the specification. We’ll explain what’s covered for your chosen materials and finish.
You can choose softwood or hardwood decking, with treated timber subframes as standard for durability. Popular upgrades include grooved boards for extra grip, matching steps, balustrades for safety, and built-in seating to maximise space. We can design straight runs, angled corners, or split levels to suit sloping gardens and entertaining areas. Staining options range from natural tones to darker contemporary finishes, and we’ll recommend what suits your home and maintenance preferences.
