    COMPOSITE DECKING IN WICKFORD

    A Low-Maintenance Composite Deck Built to Last

    Composite decking offers a modern, low-maintenance alternative to traditional timber. We supply and install composite decking boards for residential gardens across Wickford and the surrounding South Essex area, handling everything from subframe preparation through to the finished surface.

    The installation process is the same careful approach we bring to all our decking work. The subframe is built level and secure, the boards are fitted with consistent spacing, and the edging and fascia are completed neatly. The result is a deck that looks good on the final day and is straightforward to look after.

    Composite decking is not maintenance-free. It still needs cleaning, occasional rinsing and attention to the surrounding area, but it does not require the regular staining or oiling that timber does. We give honest advice about what composite will and will not do, so homeowners can make an informed choice.

    THE INSTALLATION PROCESS

    How We Install Composite Decking

    Composite decking requires the same solid foundation as timber. The subframe is constructed from treated timber or a suitable alternative, set level and securely fixed. Ground conditions, drainage and ventilation beneath the deck are all considered before the boards go down.

    Composite boards are fitted using hidden or suitable fixing systems designed for the product. Board spacing is maintained consistently to allow for expansion and drainage. Edging and fascia boards are installed to give a clean, finished appearance around the perimeter.

    Steps, raised sections and connections to patios, paths, fencing or garden rooms are coordinated as part of the project. The finished surface is checked for level, stability and appearance before handover. Waste materials are removed where included in the agreed quotation.
