Decking in Reigate
Decking installation covers building timber or composite decking in a garden, including the supporting substructure, steps and balustrades where the deck height requires them.
In Reigate, that covers Woodhatch, Reigate Heath, Meadvale, Wray Park, Colley. Reigate sits at the foot of the North Downs, with a historic town centre and a number of well-established residential areas featuring substantial Victorian, Edwardian and interwar houses. Its position near the Surrey Hills National Landscape (formerly AONB) shapes planning policy for parts of the borough.

Property styles in Reigate
Reigate has a strong stock of larger detached and semi-detached Victorian and Edwardian houses, along with mock-Tudor interwar properties, many of which suit generously proportioned rear and wraparound extensions or double-storey additions.
Planning considerations
Reigate & Banstead Borough Council is the local planning authority. The historic town centre is a conservation area, and parts of the borough fall within the Surrey Hills National Landscape (National Landscape, formerly AONB), which brings additional design and landscape considerations for extensions and new structures.
