What We've Learned Working Across Bexleyheath
Post-war housing in Erith, Belvedere, and Thamesmead has concrete construction requiring specialist fixings
Access & logistics: Most Bexley properties have driveways or nearby street parking, making access straightforward. For properties on main roads, we discuss delivery logistics during the survey.
Seasonal tip: Properties near the Thames at Erith and Belvedere should consider flood-resistant materials for ground-floor installations. We can advise on resilient flooring options that withstand moisture.
Common Considerations for Bexley Properties
- Concrete panel construction in post-war housing requiring SDS drilling and heavy-duty fixings
- Bay windows in 1930s semis creating challenging angles for flooring and skirting
- Asbestos considerations in some older properties — we advise on testing before disturbing textured coatings
Bexleyheath's position near the River Cray gives it a distinctive character, and the homes here reflect that. We tailor our millboard decking approach to suit — drawing on years of experience working in this exact area.

- 3
Ground Preparation
The area is cleared, levelled, and prepared with a weed membrane. Concrete pads or adjustable pedestals are positioned for the framework. Older Bexleyheath properties often need extra care here, so we allow time for it.

A strong, level joist framework is constructed from treated timber, with proper spacing and ventilation for long-term durability. Materials are checked against the Bexleyheath quote before this stage starts.

Board Laying
Decking boards are laid with consistent spacing, secured with screws or hidden clips, and trimmed neatly at all edges. This is where the detail of your millboard decking in Bexleyheath gets pinned down.
