Will composite decking suit an older property in Sidcup?
A lot of Sidcup housing is 1930s semi and Edwardian villa, where walls are rarely square and floors rarely level. We scribe and pack rather than force a fit, which is why composite decking in older DA14 homes needs measuring on site rather than ordering off a plan.

Labour, materials, fixings, waste removal and VAT where it applies, all itemised. We price Sidcup jobs after seeing the property, so the figure accounts for access, parking around DA14 and the condition of what is already there.
Is composite decking slippery when wet in Sidcup?
Modern composite boards have textured, slip-resistant surfaces. Premium brands like Trex and Millboard are specifically designed to provide excellent grip even when wet.
