When Biggin Hill residents search for decking installation, they often end up choosing us — and most stay with us for future projects too. Why? Because the experience of working with DP Carpentry Property Services is genuinely different. From the first phone call through to the final walkthrough, we make the process easy, transparent, and (dare we say) enjoyable.
Decking extends your living space into the garden. We design and build custom decking areas in timber or low-maintenance composite, complete with steps, balustrades, and integrated lighting.
Where We Work in Biggin Hill
Properties in and around Biggin Hill fall under London Borough of Bromley, with the closest major route being the A233. We've completed decking installation jobs from the TN16 core out to surrounding villages like Westerham.
Building Stock in Biggin Hill
Biggin Hill's housing stock leans heavily on airfield-era property, modern detached and village cottage. Each carries different considerations for decking installation — wall construction, ceiling heights, original mouldings and access all vary, and we adjust the approach accordingly.
Everything You Get With Our Decking Installation Service
- Softwood and composite decking
- Raised and ground-level designs
- Steps, balustrades, and lighting
- Non-slip surface options
- Framework and sub-structure included
The Technical Side
- We work with treated softwood, hardwood (Yellow Balau, Iroko), and composite (Trex, Millboard) — each has trade-offs we'll talk you through.
- Sub-frames are tanalised C16/C24 with stainless or coated fixings throughout.
Local Knowledge — Working in Biggin Hill
Biggin Hill and Downe have more rural character with some properties requiring careful access planning
Access & logistics: Bromley's residential streets often have permit-only parking. We arrange visitor permits in advance and discuss vehicle access for larger deliveries.
Seasonal tip: London clay beneath much of Bromley expands and contracts significantly with rainfall. This causes seasonal movement in period properties — we allow for this when fitting floors and hanging doors.
Common Considerations for Bromley Properties
- Edwardian and 1930s properties with picture rails and dado rails that need matching
- London clay soil causing seasonal movement that affects door frames and floorboards
- Basement conversions in larger properties requiring specialist damp-proofing knowledge
Our team has spent countless days working on decking jobs around Chislehurst Common and the wider Biggin Hill area. Every project adds to the practical, on-the-ground knowledge we bring to your home.

Common Questions From Biggin Hill Customers
Will decking installation suit an older property in Biggin Hill?
A lot of Biggin Hill housing is airfield-era property and modern detached, where walls are rarely square and floors rarely level. We scribe and pack rather than force a fit, which is why decking installation in older TN16 homes needs measuring on site rather than ordering off a plan.
What does a decking installation quote for Biggin Hill include?
Labour, materials, fixings, waste removal and VAT where it applies, all itemised. We price Biggin Hill jobs after seeing the property, so the figure accounts for access, parking around TN16 and the condition of what is already there.
Is composite or timber decking better in Biggin Hill?
Composite is lower maintenance and longer-lasting, while timber is more affordable and has a natural feel. We'll discuss the pros and cons of each during your free consultation.
How long does decking last in Biggin Hill?
Timber decking lasts 10 to 15 years with regular maintenance. Composite decking can last 25 years or more with virtually no upkeep beyond occasional cleaning.
Do I need planning permission for decking in Biggin Hill?
Most decking under 30cm above ground level doesn't require planning permission. Raised decking, or decking covering more than 50% of your garden, may need approval — we'll advise you.
