Why composite decking suits Bath gardens
Bath’s gardens come with their own particular challenges. The Met Office records around 830mm of rainfall a year for Bath, with damp winters that rarely fully dry out. Add the city’s famous hills (most gardens have at least some slope, and plenty have serious drop-offs) and the heavy clay soil across much of the area, and timber decking has a hard time. Rot from underneath, movement in the sub-frame, and algae across the top surface are all common within a few years. Composite is a completely different material. Our boards are made from recycled wood fibre bound with HDPE plastic, so water doesn’t soak in the way it does with timber. No rot, no splinters, no annual staining. Bath’s housing stock is dominated by Georgian and Victorian terraces built from the city’s distinctive honey-coloured limestone, with Stone Grey or Chocolate Brown composite often working particularly well against it. There are also significant post-war and interwar semis across Oldfield Park, Weston and Combe Down, and newer developments in Bathampton and Lambridge. Composite works across all of them. Boards are fully reversible, moulded woodgrain (Woodsman+) on one side, contemporary wide-groove (Active+) on the other.What a composite deck in Bath costs

Composite decking delivery to Bath
For Bath and the wider BA postcode area, delivery is FREE on all deck kits and generally lands within 2-3 working days of ordering. The run from Paignton via the A30 and M5 is a straightforward one, so delivery windows are reliable and our partners know the area well. We use a kerbside service, which means the boards come off the lorry onto your driveway or the pavement outside. If you’re in one of the Georgian terraces where the street is narrow or parking is restricted, flag it when you order. The same goes for properties on the steeper hillside streets around Lansdown, Widcombe or Bathwick, or anywhere the only access is through a rear lane. We’d rather ask upfront than have the driver stuck trying to turn round somewhere he can’t. For flats in central Bath, let us know at the ordering stage. Some of the period conversions have limited access for large vehicles, and we can usually work around it if we know in advance.Common questions from Bath customers
Yes, and it’s one of the most common install types across Bath. Most of the city’s gardens have at least some slope, and plenty have significant drops. The sub-frame does the levelling work, and for steeper sites you’ll be building a raised deck with posts set into concrete footings. Multi-level decks also work well where the garden terraces naturally. We can advise on the kit components you’ll need on top of the standard deck kit: step nosings for edges, fascia skirting to hide the frame, corner trims for a clean finish.
In most cases decking is classed as permitted development and doesn’t need planning permission, but Bath has more restrictions than most UK cities. The city centre is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and large parts of Bath are in conservation areas or contain listed buildings. If your property is listed or in a conservation area, or if the deck will be visible from the street, it’s worth checking with Bath and North East Somerset Council before you start. We can’t give planning advice ourselves, but the council’s planning portal has clear guidance and the pre-application advice service is generally helpful.
There’s no single right answer, but most Bath customers gravitate towards Stone Grey or Chocolate Brown as the closest complements to the honey-coloured limestone. Stone Grey gives a cleaner, more contemporary feel that works well with modern extensions and contrasts nicely without clashing. Chocolate Brown is warmer and suits more traditional garden designs. Anthracite and Charcoal make stronger contrasts, which can look striking but are more of a design statement. We’d always recommend ordering a free sample pack so you can hold the pieces against your actual stone before deciding.
Every kit includes boards, all fixings, starter clips and a driver bit for your drill. If you need additional items (step nosings for a raised deck, fascia skirting for a clean edge, L-profile corner trims) we stock those too and they ship on the same delivery at no extra cost.
