Hardwood Decking - Chiswick, West London - Replacement Terrace
Location: Private garden, Chiswick, W4
Material: Premium hardwood decking - natural grain, tonal variation
Build: New engineered subframe, replacement of weathered old deck, concealed fixings where possible, precise spacing
The Project
Chiswick garden - old softwood deck rotten, uneven, dated. Client wanted real timber - not composite - authentic hardwood that suits period + contemporary mix in Chiswick. Needs to handle family use, dining, low-ish maintenance but natural look.
What We Built
Full rip-out of old deck + subframe
New precision subframe - strong, level, long-term - built around mature planting + boundaries - kept privacy
Premium hardwood boards - dense, durable, each board different grain - rich golden/honey tones new, will silver to grey if left, or keep colour with oiling
Open layout - maximises space, connects house to garden, room for dining + relaxing
Incorporated existing fencing + planting beds - deck sits in landscape, not dominating
Hardwood Notes for Client
Natural material: evolves - either let it go silver-grey (no maintenance) or oil 1-2x year to keep honey colour
Dense = strong for heavy traffic, moisture, insects, decades if installed right
Needs airflow underneath - subframe engineered for that
Result
Chiswick garden now seamless extension of house - timeless timber look that suits W4 property, adds value.
