Decking Services
Decking Designed for Style, Durability and Everyday Use
Whether you want a contemporary decked entertaining area, a more natural timber finish or a raised platform that improves the flow of the garden, we shape each project around the layout, the setting and the way the space will be used.
A well-designed decking area should do more than add surface space. It should improve how the garden works, create a stronger connection to the house, and provide an outdoor area that feels comfortable, attractive, and built to last. At Element Landscapes, we provide decking installation services across Berkshire. Element Landscapes delivers composite decking, timber decking and raised decking solutions for homes across Reading, Berkshire, with projects also completed in Berkshire and the Thames Valley. We create outdoor spaces that look refined, feel practical, and are built for long-term use, helping homeowners create outdoor spaces that are practical, visually refined, and well suited to the property. From composite decking and timber decking to raised decking features and more tailored outdoor layouts, we take a design-led approach that balances appearance, usability and long-term durability.
Composite Decking for Gardens in Reading and Berkshire
Composite decking can work well where homeowners want a clean, consistent finish with less routine maintenance than timber. The boards still need a correctly specified subframe, secure fixings, appropriate ventilation and a layout that manages water properly. We assess levels, access and intended use before recommending the board type, colour and construction method.

Consultation and Site Review
We begin by understanding the space, the levels, the surrounding garden and what you want the decking area to achieve. That may include creating a better entertaining space, improving the transition from the house to the garden, introducing a raised seating area or replacing an older surface with something more refined.

Composite, Timber and Raised Decking Options
The right decking solution should suit the property, support the way the space will be used and continue to perform well over time. For some projects, that means composite decking with a clean, contemporary finish and lower ongoing maintenance. For others, timber decking may be the better fit, offering a more natural character and warmth within the garden.
Raised decking can also be an effective way to solve level changes, improve usability and create a stronger visual structure within the outdoor space. When it is planned properly, it can help connect the house to the garden more naturally and create zones for seating, entertaining or everyday use.
At Element Landscapes, we approach decking as part of the wider landscaping design scheme. That means thinking about the surface finish, the proportions, the relationship to planting and paving, and how the finished deck will look and feel in day-to-day use.
Why Choose Element Landscapes?
Decking installation requires both design judgement and practical construction expertise. Element Landscapes brings those two sides together to create outdoor spaces that look considered and perform properly.
Design-led thinking
We do not treat decking as a standalone feature. We look at how it sits within the wider garden so the whole space feels connected, intentional and well balanced.
Built for long-term use
Base preparation, structure, levels and finishing details all matter. A deck should not only look good when it is first completed, it should also continue to perform well over time.

If I had another hard landscaping project to do I would definitely be asking Jason back to do it for me with absolutely no hesitation. I cannot recommend Element landscapes highly enough.
All the work was completed to a very high standard, on time and within budget. I have no hesitation in recommending Element Landscapes.
Jason from Element Landscapes has done projects for us a couple of times and we have found his work to be excellent with real attention to detail. We highly recommend him and he is our first contact for new work.
We are very pleased with our fencing. The price was competitive. Installation was quick and efficient. Good customer service as in discreet, polite and just cracking on with the job. Overall very pleased. Fence still up after a few years and hasn’t moved. Highly recommend.
