DECKING & PAVING

Expert Decking & Paving in South East London

Stylish, durable outdoor living spaces built to last. Composite and timber decking, porcelain and natural stone paving — installed with precision across Greenwich, Blackheath, Lewisham, Brockley and Nunhead.

DECKING

Decking done properly.

A well-built deck transforms how you use your garden. It creates a defined outdoor living area, raises the level for better views and provides a warm, inviting surface for furniture, dining and relaxation.

Composite Decking

Low-maintenance composite boards that resist fading, staining and warping. No annual oiling required — just clean and enjoy.

Hardwood Timber Decking

Premium hardwood decking for a natural, warm finish. We use durable species that handle London weather with proper treatment.

Subframe & Foundations

Every deck starts with a properly engineered subframe — level, ventilated and designed to prevent movement, rot and sagging.

Drainage & Integration

Decking integrated with planting beds, lighting, steps and drainage. Designed as part of the whole garden — not an afterthought.

PAVING

Patios built to last.

A patio is the foundation of your outdoor living space. We install patios with proper sub-base preparation, precise cuts, clean jointing and considered drainage — surfaces that look premium and hold up to London weather year after year.

Porcelain Paving

Frost-proof, low-maintenance porcelain slabs in a wide range of finishes. Clean lines, consistent colour and excellent durability.

Natural Stone Paving

Sandstone, limestone and granite for a more traditional or textured look. Each stone is unique and ages beautifully.

Custom layouts with mixed materials, inset planting beds, integrated step lighting and considered drainage.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between composite and timber decking?

Composite decking requires virtually no maintenance and resists fading and warping. Timber decking offers a natural warmth but needs annual oiling. We recommend composite for most London gardens due to the weather.

Is porcelain paving better than natural stone?

Porcelain handles frost, rain and moss better than most natural stone. It is also more consistent in colour and easier to clean. Natural stone offers a unique, textured character that some clients prefer.

How long does a decking or paving project take?

A typical patio or decking installation takes 1–2 weeks depending on size and complexity. We provide a clear timeline at the quoting stage.

Do you remove old paving or decking?

Yes. We handle full removal and disposal of existing surfaces as part of the project. The site is left clean and ready for the new installation.

How much does decking or paving cost in South East London?

Patio installation typically costs £3,500–£8,000 depending on size and material. Decking installation ranges from £3,000–£7,000 including subframe. We provide a detailed, itemised quote after a free site visit.

What materials do you recommend for London gardens?

For patios, we recommend large-format porcelain paving for its durability and low maintenance. For decking, composite is our top choice for London weather. We source from trusted suppliers including London Stone.
