New & Replacement Decking in Glasnevin
When boards start moving, splitting or looking worn, the first question is whether the deck can be repaired or needs replacing. Reflect handles decking in Glasnevin, including new timber, composite and PVC decks, replacements and repairs after the existing area has been checked.
Repair it, replace it, or start again?
Send a few photos or arrange a visit. We’ll look at the existing deck, access, ground and what you want from the replacement.

Know when a worn deck needs more than another clean
Loose boards, tired finishes, algae and movement can all point to different problems. We inspect the deck first, then discuss repair, refurbishment or replacement.
Boards moving underfoot
Loose or damaged boards may be repairable if the structure underneath is still sound.
A surface that stays dark and slippery
If the timber is solid, cleaning and restoration may improve it without replacing the whole deck.
Old timber you want to change to composite
The frame should be checked before new boards are fitted so hidden problems are not covered over.
How we assess replacement decking in Glasnevin
The existing boards, support, access and levels are checked before we decide what should be repaired, removed or rebuilt.
Check the boards and structure
We inspect visible wear, movement, steps, rails and the support underneath where accessible.
Decide what can sensibly stay
A sound part of the deck may be repairable. If replacement makes more sense, we explain why before pricing it.
Quote the agreed replacement
New boards, preparation, removal work, steps, rails and other agreed items are set out in the written quote.

An older deck should be checked before it is priced
We look at condition first, then explain the practical options in plain English before any replacement work is agreed.
Repair is still an option
If the problem is limited to boards, steps or another repairable area, we can discuss that before full replacement.
New boards do not hide old problems
The support, ground and visible structure are considered so new decking is not simply fitted over an unresolved issue.
Material choice comes after the inspection
Timber, composite and PVC are compared around the actual job, upkeep and finish you want.
Removal work is written into the quote
If old decking needs to come out, the agreed removal and preparation are included clearly in the scope.

Glasnevin decking questions before you decide
Straight answers on cost, repair, replacement materials, slippery timber and planning before you book a visit.
How much does decking cost in Glasnevin? +
Reflect’s guide prices start around €100/m² for timber, €110/m² for PVC and €120/m² for composite. A small deck around 15m² starts from approximately €1,800+. Final cost depends on size, ground condition, subframe, access, steps, rails, removal and preparation.
Can damaged decking be repaired instead of replaced? +
Often, yes. If the damage is limited and the support underneath is still sound, individual boards, steps or other sections may be repairable. We inspect the condition before recommending a full replacement.
Can old timber decking be changed to composite? +
Yes, in many cases. The existing frame and support should be checked first so new composite boards are not fitted over hidden rot, movement or other problems.
What makes older timber decking slippery? +
Moisture, algae, moss, dirt and worn finishes can all reduce grip. Cleaning and drainage matter, and badly deteriorated boards may need repair or replacement rather than cleaning alone.
Will replacement decking need planning permission in Glasnevin? +
It depends on the property, finished height, location and wider works. We can discuss the issue at the visit, but if there is any uncertainty you should confirm current requirements with Dublin City Council or the relevant planning authority.
