Decks work well in gardens that drop away from the house. Rather than digging out and walling the slope for a patio, we build the deck level above it. Composite boards are designed to keep their colour and resist rot, which saves you staining and sanding each year. An occasional wash is about all they ask.

A deck is only as good as its frame. That is why ours sit on firm footings, with enough ventilation underneath to keep the deck level and give the timber a long life.

Frequently Asked Questions

Decking in Newhaven: Questions

Do you cover Newhaven?

We do. Newhaven falls within the area we cover from near Lewes. Get in touch on 01273 058553, a local number, or by sending your details, and a free visit will follow.

Is composite decking better than wood?

Composite is much easier to maintain and will not rot or splinter. Timber has a natural look and costs less upfront. Think about your budget and how much upkeep you are happy to do, and the choice follows from that.

Can decking go on a sloping garden?

Yes. A sloping garden is a good place for a deck, as it can be the easiest way to create a level area. Steps then lead down to the garden.

How long does timber decking last?

The key is a good build and a ventilated frame. With those, a timber deck lasts many years, and cleaning and treating it adds more.

How do I clean composite decking?

Warm soapy water and a brush, or a gentle rinse, will usually keep it clean. We go through aftercare advice with you once the deck is finished.

How much does decking cost?

Prices depend on what you want built: the deck size, whether it is raised, any steps or balustrades, and timber or composite boards. Timber costs less to start with, and composite costs more but takes less upkeep. We can price both in a written, itemised quote after a free site visit.

Is composite decking slippery?

Composite boards are usually textured to give you grip. Keeping the surface clean prevents a build-up of algae.

Do I need planning permission for decking?

Most do not. Planning permission may come into it for a raised deck over a certain height, and we can explain the rules for your plans.
