Engineered Decking Solutions for Greenwich Properties
The Tree Amigos install composite decking in Greenwich, SE10, using Millboard and Trex materials, along with hardwood and softwood options.
Decking provides a warm, versatile outdoor living platform that connects your home's rear doors with the garden. In Greenwich, where properties near Greenwich Park, the Royal Observatory, Cutty Sark, Point Hill and the Ashburnham Triangle often feature historic georgian townhouses, victorian west greenwich cottages, and contemporary riverside developments, decking creates level, usable entertaining areas without the disruption of extensive excavations.
Our composite decking solutions in Greenwich pair heritage-appropriate finishes like Millboard Weathered Oak with high-strength C24 framing, ideal for elevated view decks and shaded courtyard gardens. Greenwich sits on impermeable London Clay capped by gravel terraces, with pockets of Thanet Sand nearer the park — the clay holds water rather than draining it away, so subframe drainage matters more here than the finish itself. At The Tree Amigos Landscaping & Gardening Ltd, every deck is constructed on a heavy-duty C24 strength-graded timber subframe, elevated on breathable geotextile membrane and structural pedestals to keep boards clear of that trapped ground moisture.
Located just 10 minutes east in Woolwich SE18, Billy and Vincent provide rapid site surveys and dedicated on-site supervision throughout West Greenwich, East Greenwich, and the SE10 riverside.
