Hackney decking — common briefs
Garden levelling on Victorian terraces across Stoke Newington and De Beauvoir
Many Hackney gardens are small rear gardens with mature planting; several plots border the Regent's Canal or Hackney Marshes — raised decks fix the slope and add a usable flat area.
Working around many boundaries are shared with three or four neighbours on Victorian back-to-backs — clear ownership marks matter
Every quote we write in E5 factors this in from the first measure.
