Composite Decking vs Timber Decking in Petersfield — Which Should You Choose?

Composite Decking (Recommended for Petersfield)

Why composite decking is ideal for Petersfield: Our South Downs location experiences high rainfall and humidity. Composite boards resist rot, splintering, and insect damage — perfect for damp Hampshire climates. No annual staining or sanding needed.

• Millboard Envello™ or Coppered Oak: Premium decking with natural wood look, ultra-durable (25-year warranty)
• Moso Bamboo Composite: Eco-friendly, slip-resistant, brilliant for entertaining areas
• Dino Decking (Merapi): Budget-friendly composite, ideal for large family gardens

Composite Decking Cost in Petersfield (2026):
• Small deck (3m × 4m): £4,500–£6,500
• Medium deck (5m × 6m): £7,500–£10,500
• Large entertaining deck (7m × 8m+): £12,000–£18,000+
Prices include materials, joinery, hidden fasteners, and 2-year labour warranty.

Timber Decking

If you prefer the authentic wood look and feel, we install premium hardwoods including Cumaru, Merbau, and Blackbutt. Timber requires annual maintenance (sanding, oiling) but offers warmth and natural beauty unmatched by composite.

• Cumaru: Brazilian hardwood, naturally rot-resistant, rich golden-brown colour
• Merbau: Dense, durable, warm red-brown tone, ideal for high-traffic areas
• Softwood (Pine/Larch): Budget option (must be pressure-treated and regularly stained)

Timber Decking Cost in Petersfield (2026):
• Small deck (3m × 4m): £3,200–£5,000
• Medium deck (5m × 6m): £5,500–£8,500
• Large deck (7m × 8m+): £9,000–£14,000+
Plus annual maintenance: £300–£600/year for professional cleaning and oiling.

Planning Permission for Decking in Petersfield

Good news: Most residential decking in Petersfield does not require planning permission under East Hampshire District Council’s Permitted Development rules — provided your deck meets these criteria:

• Deck is no more than 30cm (1 foot) above ground level
• Covers no more than 50% of your garden’s total area
• Not within a Conservation Area (check with us — parts of Petersfield are protected)
• Not attached to a Grade II Listed building

Important: Petersfield town centre and many properties near the town core are in Conservation Areas. Raised decks (30cm+) or large platforms may require consent. We’ll check your property’s planning status at no cost — call us on 07784 617 176 before you commit.
