Built for Cromer's coastal climate. Low-maintenance, high-quality composite decking that handles salt air, damp winters, and busy holiday seasons, without demanding anything from you.
Cromer and the surrounding area has a mix of permanent residents, holiday homeowners, and people who let their properties out throughout the season. What they share is that the outdoor space matters, whether that's a sea-view terrace, a sheltered garden deck, or a yard that needs to handle guests year after year without falling apart.
The coastal environment is hard on conventional materials. Cromer's exposed position means stronger winds, heavier salt air, and faster deterioration than you'd see inland. Timber greys and softens. Paving grows algae on the shaded north-facing aspects. We install composite decking that handles all of this without any help from you, built for exactly the conditions Cromer creates.
Exposed coastal conditions, no problem
Salt air, strong winds, heavy rainfall, composite handles all of Cromer's climate without deteriorating. No rust, no rot, no grey weathering.
Ideal for holiday lets
Premium composite decking raises a listing's appeal, earns better reviews, and justifies higher nightly rates, with no maintenance burden between bookings.
Zero maintenance required
No annual treatment schedule. Rinse it once or twice a year and that's the full extent of it. In a coastal climate where conventional materials need constant attention, that's the difference.
TrexPRO Platinum, Norfolk's only installer
The highest Trex certification available. Your installation is fully warranted and built to the standard the manufacturer expects.
Cromer sits exposed on the north Norfolk coast, stronger winds, heavier salt air, and higher rainfall than sheltered inland properties. Timber doesn't cope. Standard paving looks grey and mossy within a few seasons. Composite boards are capped, moisture, salt, and UV can't affect the surface. The finish you see on installation day is the finish you'll have in year twenty-five.

In a coastal town like Cromer, the advantages of composite over conventional paving compound quickly. Here's the picture.
| Composite Decking | Paving / Patio | |
|---|---|---|
| Coastal durability | Unaffected by salt air, moisture, or UV. 25-year warranty even in exposed coastal conditions. | Salt efflorescence, algae growth, and accelerated weathering are all common on paving in Cromer's exposed position. |
| Maintenance | Rinse once or twice a year. No other work ever required. | Jet washing, re-pointing, moss treatment, annually, and more often in the growing season in a coastal climate. |
| Holiday let appeal | Premium-looking decking stands out in listing photos and guests mention it in reviews. Justifies higher nightly rates. | Worn coastal paving detracts from listing appeal and is rarely noted positively in guest reviews. |
| Safety when wet | Textured slip-resistant surface in all conditions. Safe year-round for guests and family. | Algae-covered paving in Cromer's wet winters becomes genuinely hazardous, a liability risk for holiday let owners in particular. |
| Long-term cost | Higher upfront, but near-zero running cost. Cheaper over 15 years than paving with ongoing maintenance. | Lower upfront but regular maintenance costs add up. Likely re-laying within 12–15 years in coastal conditions. |
New decks from scratch, replacing tired timber, mossy paving, or bare garden areas. Single-level, multi-level, and raised designs to make the most of Cromer's sea views where possible.
Outdoor spaces that earn better reviews and justify higher rates. We work with Cromer holiday let owners to create the kind of outdoor space guests photograph and write about. We can work around booking windows.
Many Cromer properties have ageing timber decks that have been beaten by the coastal climate. We remove and replace with composite, same footprint, permanently better result.
A composite deck with a built pergola creates a sheltered outdoor space, particularly useful in Cromer where the coast can be exposed. We design and build both as one project.

"We have a holiday let in Cromer and the timber deck had been a constant issue. Guests complained about it being slippery, it looked dreadful by the end of the season. The composite they installed has completely sorted it, smart, safe, and we haven't touched it."
"Really impressed from start to finish. Good design advice, honest quote, and the installation was clean and professional. The deck looks brilliant, exactly what we wanted for the garden."
"We replaced the paving with composite decking and it's transformed the back garden. Particularly the safety, the old slabs were a nightmare in winter. Beams & Braces were great throughout."
Yes, we cover all of north Norfolk including Cromer, Sheringham, Overstrand, North Walsham, and the surrounding coastline. Site visits are free with no obligation to proceed.
Yes. We plan installations around availability windows. Most deck projects take 3–5 working days, and we can usually schedule during quieter periods, late autumn through early spring is often the most practical for Cromer holiday properties. We'll confirm a clear programme before starting.
Well. Composite boards are capped, moisture, salt, and UV can't penetrate the surface. In exposed coastal conditions like Cromer's, that makes a significant difference versus timber or untreated materials. The 25-year Trex warranty applies regardless of coastal exposure.
Yes. Many Cromer gardens slope, particularly on the cliff-top side of town. Raised or multi-level decking is one of the most effective solutions, it creates usable flat outdoor space without extensive groundworks. We'll assess and design around the slope at the site visit.
