Tailored to Sandwich Homes
Dover's coastal properties experience salt-laden air that accelerates corrosion — we use marine-grade fixings and treated timber for any exposed work
Access & logistics: Dover's steep topography means some properties have challenging access. We assess this during the initial survey and plan accordingly for material handling and scaffolding.
Seasonal tip: Coastal exposure in Dover means external carpentry needs to withstand salt spray and high winds. We use stainless steel fixings and recommend composite or treated hardwood over softwood for any external work.
Common Considerations for Dover Properties
- Salt air corrosion requiring marine-grade hardware and treated timber
- Chalk and flint walls requiring specialist drilling and fixings
- Exposed coastal locations requiring wind-resistant construction for garden rooms and decking
Ask any of our customers near Deal seafront what they value most about working with us, and you'll hear the same things: punctuality, fair pricing, and properly finished decking work. We don't believe those should be rare qualities — but in this trade, they often are.

How We Work — Our Decking Process
No guesswork on site. This is the order we work in on a composite decking job in Sandwich:
- 1
Garden Survey
We visit your garden, assess the ground conditions, and discuss your requirements — size, shape, levels, and material preference. Nothing at this stage is left to assumption on a Sandwich job.
- 2
Decking Design
We create a design including dimensions, board direction, step positions, and any additional features like lighting or balustrades. Nothing at this stage is left to assumption on a Sandwich job.
- 3
Ground Preparation
The area is cleared, levelled, and prepared with a weed membrane. Concrete pads or adjustable pedestals are positioned for the framework. We photograph this stage so you can see the work even if you are out.
- 4
Framework Construction
A strong, level joist framework is constructed from treated timber, with proper spacing and ventilation for long-term durability. We confirm this stage with you before moving on, every time in Sandwich.
- 5
Board Laying
Decking boards are laid with consistent spacing, secured with screws or hidden clips, and trimmed neatly at all edges. You get a straight update at the end of this stage.
- 6
Finishing & Extras
Steps, fascia boards, balustrades, and lighting are installed. The deck is cleaned and any staining or oiling is applied. You get a straight update at the end of this stage.
Any changes you ask for in Sandwich are priced and agreed before we carry them out.
