Practical outdoor spaces built properly
A well-built deck can completely change how you use your garden. Whether you need a level area on sloping ground, a space for outdoor dining, or a cleaner alternative to paving, garden decking offers a flexible and long-lasting solution when it’s done properly.
At Marriott Services, we design and build garden decking that works with your space, your budget, and the realities of UK weather.
I have used Marriott Services many times. They always do a good job, totally professional, give good advice and overall a pleasure to deal with.
Patrick and his team were absolutely amazing. They did exactly what we asked and any problems that happened he always asked us first. It was all put together very precise and they did not make any mess. All together so so happy with my fencing and decking
Thank you for your good services. I cannot recommend Patrick and Marriott Services highly enough, nothing is too much trouble.
Garden Decking Designed Around Your Garden
Every garden is different. Some are uneven, some struggle with drainage, others just feel awkward to use. Decking is often the most practical way to create a usable outdoor area without extensive groundworks.
We build decking that:
-
Works on uneven or sloping ground
-
Creates usable space where patios are impractical
-
Improves access and flow within the garden
-
Looks right as well as performs well
From small seating areas to larger family spaces, the focus is always on function first.
Timber and Composite Decking Options
We install both timber decking and composite decking, and we’ll always explain the pros and cons of each before you decide.
Timber Decking
Timber decking offers a natural, traditional finish and is often the most cost-effective option upfront. It’s a good choice for homeowners who like the look of real wood and are happy to carry out occasional maintenance.
Composite Decking
Composite decking is a popular choice for homeowners who want a low-maintenance solution. It resists moisture, algae, and rot far better than timber and keeps its appearance year after year with minimal upkeep.
We’ll help you decide which option suits your garden and how you plan to use it.
Built for Plymouth Gardens and Conditions
Gardens in and around Plymouth often come with challenges like slopes, clay soil, and drainage issues. Decking is particularly well suited to these conditions when the structure is designed correctly.
Our approach focuses on:
-
Proper ground preparation
-
Solid subframe construction
-
Correct spacing and ventilation
-
Long-term durability in damp conditions
This is where build quality really matters.

Garden Decking FAQs
Can decking be built on uneven ground?
Yes. Decking is often the best solution for sloping or uneven gardens.
Do I need planning permission for garden decking?
Most ground-level decks do not require planning permission. Raised decks may need consideration, which we’ll advise on during the visit.
How long does garden decking last?
That depends on materials and build quality. Composite typically lasts longer with less maintenance, while timber requires more care.
Is decking cheaper than a patio?
In many cases, yes, especially where the ground is uneven or drainage is poor.
