Composite decking, fencing and cladding for Bromyard's timber-framed and brick houses, chosen to sit comfortably beside traditional buildings and cope with Herefordshire weather.
Bromyard is a small Herefordshire market town with a mix of black-and-white timber-framed buildings and warm red brick houses. Gardens vary from small yards behind older terraces to roomy plots on the edge of town. In most of them, timber garden structures take a hard time from damp.
SPR Trees and Landscapes works in Bromyard and the villages around it, fitting composite decking, steps, fences and cladding. We try to keep designs simple and in keeping with the look of the town, and we explain the practical points honestly. Quotations and advice cost nothing.
A deck behind a brick house looks right when it is planned as an extension of the living space rather than an add-on. We usually start at the back door, deciding where the threshold sits and how far the platform extends. Frames sit on stable footings, boards are fixed with hidden clips where the system allows, and steps are sized for comfortable use. Composite decking for small gardens can work well in the terraced yards close to the centre, while larger plots at the edge of town can take a bigger platform with space for a dining set.
Close to historic buildings, a bright or glossy fence draws the eye. A matt, earthy composite panel is less intrusive and looks tidy for years. We would not put new cladding onto an old timber-framed structure without considering how the building handles moisture, so on period properties we stick to garden buildings and modern additions. For a shed or summer house, composite cladding gives a protective and neat outer layer. For boundaries, we look at post spacing, ground level and neighbours' fence lines before suggesting a design.
Herefordshire rain and shady, tree-lined gardens mean composite will see a fair amount of moisture. The material resists rot, but algae can still form on the surface. Regular sweeping, a warm soapy wash a couple of times a year and keeping the gaps clear of debris will handle most of it. Do not rely on strong chemicals. If a board becomes damaged, it can be unscrewed or unclipped and replaced. Fading is gentle and tends to be most visible in the first season, after which the colour settles.
Bromyard is a small market town, and many enquiries come from farmhouses, cottages and edge-of-town properties reached by rural lanes. We check access and delivery routes before the work starts so materials arrive without fuss. We also cover Leominster, Ledbury, Tenbury Wells and Hereford. Ask for a free site visit and we will measure up, listen to what you want and suggest something realistic, with a clear written quotation to follow.
We also take on composite decking installers work in nearby Leominster, Ledbury, Tenbury Wells, Hereford.

“Jim and Dan did a brilliant job on my 90ft conifer. Its a lot safer now and I have more light in the garden...”
“The boys did an excellent job... pruned my trees back and remove one tree that had split...”
“The guys were prompt & proffesional removed an old ash for me thanks guys”
For garden structures such as decks and fences, usually yes, with muted colours. We would be more cautious about cladding the house itself. If your property is listed, speak to the planning authority first.
Timber is cheaper to start with but needs regular treatment and eventually rots. Composite costs more upfront, needs little maintenance and lasts well. Think about how long you will stay and how much upkeep you want.
Yes, if the posts are sound and the panel size and colour are still available. We check the posts first, because failed posts are the usual reason fences lean, and replacing panels alone will not solve that.
