We transformed a tired and unsafe timber roof terrace with Trex composite decking, a carefully designed pedestal-supported substructure, contemporary black railings and integrated deck lighting.
The existing timber decking had become tired and unsafe, so we removed the complete installation and prepared the roof terrace for a durable replacement.
Roof decking requires a carefully considered substructure. We used plastic support pedestals to raise the deck frame above the roof surface, avoiding direct contact between the frame and the roof. This creates space beneath the decking for airflow and drainage, helping to protect both the roof and the new deck over the longer term.
We finished the terrace with Trex Transcend composite decking in Gravel Path, creating a smart and low-maintenance outdoor space with a warm, natural appearance.
Stylish black Trex Signature railing kits were installed around the terrace, providing a secure enclosure with a clean, contemporary finish. We then added integrated Trex lighting to enhance the atmosphere and make the rooftop deck more enjoyable after dark.
If you are considering replacing an old deck or creating a new outdoor living space, we can help. We design and build high-quality composite and timber decking throughout Surrey, South London and the surrounding areas.

Yes, provided the roof structure, waterproof surface, loading and drainage requirements are carefully considered. We design the decking system around the individual terrace rather than treating it like a conventional ground-level installation.
Support pedestals raise the deck frame above the roof surface and prevent it from resting directly on the roof covering. The space beneath the structure allows water to drain and air to circulate, helping to protect both the decking system and the roof.
Yes. A suitable railing system can provide a secure enclosure while complementing the appearance of the decking. On this Twickenham terrace, we installed black Trex Signature railings for a smart, contemporary finish.
Yes. We can integrate deck lighting during the design and installation process, positioning it to complement the layout and improve visibility after dark. Trex lighting provided the finishing touch to this rooftop decking project.
