Finding a decking installer in Inverness

The nearest towns with listed firms are Perth (1 firm, 80 miles), Dundee (3 firms, 85 miles), Stirling (5 firms, 95 miles), Glasgow (8 firms, 112 miles). A deck is a job of several days, so firms do travel; ask each one whether it works in Inverness before you count on a quote.

Most decks in Britain are fitted by small landscaping firms and joiners rather than decking specialists, so a landscaper who already works in Inverness is worth asking. The makers of the leading composite boards publish lists of their approved installers by area, and the installer guide explains how to use them, what to check and the questions to ask.

Whoever you ask, get the quote itemised: boards by brand and range, the subframe timber and its treatment class, joist centres, fixings, steps, balustrade height, VAT and the guarantee. The cost guide has the full checklist and the typical fitted prices, and the planning rule for Scotland is in the panel alongside.

Decking in Inverness

Inverness's gardens in Culloden, Inshes and Westhill are level to sloping plots on glacial soils, with a wet climate that punishes softwood. Scotland's permitted development rules apply.

Planning: The Highland Council

In Scotland a deck is permitted development when its floor is no more than 0.5 m above the ground, it sits behind the front of the house and it keeps within the limits on how much of the garden is built on. Flats, listed buildings and conservation areas need checking with the council.
