About Our Wooden Decking

Timber decking gives a usable, level outdoor area where a garden might otherwise be sloped or uneven, built in pressure-treated softwood as standard or hardwood for a different finish. Underneath, a sub-frame of joists sits on concrete pad footings, postcrete posts or adjustable feet depending on ground conditions and height, with board spacing set to let water drain through rather than pool.

Why Choose Us

We're a local Nottinghamshire team, so you're dealing directly with the people actually building your deck rather than being passed between departments.

The same person who plans and prices the job is on site through the build, and we're happy to talk through the practical options for your garden rather than push a standard package that doesn't suit it.

What Affects the Price

  • •Overall size and shape of the deck
  • •Number of levels or tiers, and any steps required
  • •Timber choice, softwood versus hardwood
  • •Ground conditions and how much groundwork or levelling is needed
  • •Site access for materials and machinery
  • •Extras such as balustrades, built-in seating or lighting

Common Questions

How long does a timber deck last?

It depends on the timber used, how it's built and how well it's maintained afterwards. Pressure-treated softwood needs regular staining or oiling to keep it protected, while hardwood generally weathers differently and needs its own maintenance routine. Keeping the frame ventilated underneath and clearing leaves and debris off the boards makes a real difference over time.

Do I need planning permission for a deck?

Most garden decks fall under permitted development, but this depends on things like the height of the deck, how much of the garden it covers, and whether the property has had previous extensions or alterations. If you're not sure, it's worth checking with your local planning department before work starts, and we're happy to talk through what we're proposing so you can make that call.

Can decking be built over an existing patio or uneven ground?

In some cases yes, depending on the condition of what's underneath and how the frame needs to be supported. Sloping or uneven ground usually just means adjusting the footings or feet to get the frame level, which we assess during the site visit.
