Murphy Construction build composite and timber decking across Glasgow and Scotland — from ground level decking platforms and raised decks through to full garden transformations with sleeper raised beds, balustrades and outdoor structures.
Every deck is built on a solid, correctly engineered subframe. We use quality materials and take pride in the craftsmanship of every detail — the same standard of work we bring to every job we do.
Michael Murphy leads every project personally — a joiner by trade with 18 years of hands-on construction experience. Backed by a trusted network of specialist trades built up over 18 years.
High performance composite decking in a range of colours and finishes — low maintenance, durable and ideal for the Scottish climate. All boards and subframes installed correctly.
Traditional pressure-treated timber decking — solid, natural and built to last. Ground level platforms, raised decks and everything in between.
Raised deck construction with full balustrade installation — timber or composite balustrades, turned spindles, handrails and newel posts.
Sleeper raised beds, retaining walls, garden structures and landscaping joinery to complement your decking and complete the outdoor space.
Michael started as an apprentice joiner. 18 years on the tools means he understands the craft and won't accept anything less than a proper standard of work.
Every trade we use has been vetted and proven over years of working together. No unknown subcontractors dropped on your site at the last minute.
We deliberately limit the projects we take on. Every build gets our full attention — fewer projects, higher standards, better outcomes every time.

Both have their place. Composite is lower maintenance and more durable in wet conditions — ideal for Scotland. Timber is more traditional, lower initial cost, but requires regular treatment. We'll advise on the best option for your project and budget.
A typical domestic decking project takes 2–5 days depending on size and complexity. Larger projects with raised levels, balustrades and landscaping take longer. We'll give you a clear programme at the quote stage.
Composite decking typically costs £150–£250 per square metre installed. Timber decking costs £80–£150 per square metre installed. Raised decks with balustrades are at the higher end. We provide a detailed quote for every project.
