Why Composite?
Installing Composite Decking in Surrey
Composite decking offers an attractive, durable and low-maintenance alternative to traditional timber, but not all products are equal. Boards can cost from around £20 to more than £130 per length, with significant differences in their construction, finish, performance and warranty.
Choosing the right board is only part of the process. The substructure beneath it must be designed for the ground conditions, height, loading, drainage, ventilation and decking system being installed. With more than 25 years of experience, we specify and build every deck properly from the ground up, giving it the strength and stability to perform for years to come.

Frequently asked questions
Deck & Design creates and installs composite and timber decking across Surrey and the South London border. Based in Purley, we bring over 25 years of trade experience to creating outdoor spaces that suit our clients’ homes, gardens and lifestyles.
The best choice depends on the appearance, budget and maintenance requirements of the project. Composite decking generally requires less ongoing maintenance, while timber offers a natural finish that can be refreshed with suitable treatments. We install both and explain the benefits of each so our clients can make an informed choice.
We work with Millboard, Trex, TimberTech and Composite Prime, including the Redux and Elements ranges. Each offers different finishes, colours and specifications. We help our clients compare the options and select a product suited to their garden, intended use and budget.
The cost depends on the size of the deck, the materials chosen, the supporting structure and the preparation required. Sloping ground, steps, balustrades and additional features can also affect the price. We assess each project individually and provide a quotation based on the proposed design and installation requirements.
