Decks for Hexham and the Tyne Valley
Stone houses, steep streets and gardens with a view. In Hexham, a deck is often about creating level ground where there isn't any.
The gardens here
Homes and gardens in Hexham
Hexham's older stone homes and the newer houses around the town often sit on sloping ground, with gardens stepping up or down from the house and views across the valley.
Rural properties nearby can have much larger gardens, where a deck becomes one part of a bigger landscape.
What we design
Decks that suit Hexham
A viewing deck
Positioned and edged to frame the valley view.
A deck beside a stone terrace
Working with existing walls and paving rather than against them.
Before we draw
Levels, access and the ground
Steep access
Steep drives and paths mean careful planning of deliveries and lifting.
Rock and stone
Some gardens hit stone not far down, so footings are designed to suit.
Often on the brief in Hexham
- Natural finishes that suit stone
- Balustrades that keep the view
- Lighting for steps on slopes
- Durable boards for exposed gardens
