Decking in United Kingdom ranges from £15 for basic services like deck staining to £2,500 for fully insulated pergola systems. Prices include VAT. Planning permission required if structure is over 2.5m high. Permitted development rules apply in most cases.
The most common types are treated softwood (affordable, needs maintenance), hardwood (durable, natural look), and composite decking (low maintenance, longer lifespan). Pergola options range from open timber structures to insulated patio roof systems.
Permit requirements vary by location. Prices include VAT. Planning permission required if structure is over 2.5m high. Permitted development rules apply in most cases. It is always advisable to check with your local council or planning authority before starting any outdoor structure.
Composite decking costs £100–£250 per /m² — more than treated pine upfront. However, it requires almost no maintenance and lasts 25+ years, making it cost-competitive over its lifetime versus timber that needs regular oiling and staining.
