Decking & timber in Dorking

A market town in the Mole Valley, circled by Box Hill, Leith Hill and some of the most photographed landscape in Surrey. The built environment tries to match.

Decking & timber in Dorking

Decking extends the living space — a level platform off a kitchen door, a raised viewing point, a transition between house and garden. We build in hardwood and composite on galvanised steel or timber subframes, with fixings hidden and boards that stay level.

Our process

  1. 01

    Site survey — check levels, access, ground conditions and proximity to the house DPC.

  2. 02

    Specification — choose board material and profile, agree layout, balustrade and lighting.

  3. 03

    Subframe — install posts, bearers and joists at correct centres, level and squared.

  4. 04

    Boarding — fix boards with hidden clips, cut to line, finish edges cleanly.

  5. 05

    Balustrades, lighting and handover — fit any railings, integrate lighting, hand over care notes.

Materials we use

  • Hardwood (iroko, balau, oak)
  • Composite boards (Millboard, Trex, similar)
  • Galvanised steel subframes
  • Treated softwood subframes
  • Stainless steel and hidden clip fixings

Typical timeline

One to three weeks on site depending on size, access and complexity.

About Dorking

Period properties in the centre, larger detached houses on the slopes. Gardens often contend with chalk, flint and steep gradients.

The western limit of our Surrey coverage — we take projects here for the right scope.

Common questions

Hardwood weathers to silver and has a natural warmth; it needs periodic oiling if you want to keep the original colour. Composite requires no maintenance and stays consistent. Walk on both before deciding.
