A well-built raised bed transforms tired borders into structured, easy-to-maintain planting space. We install bespoke beds across BR1 and BR2, from compact courtyards near The Glades Shopping Centre to larger family gardens around Bromley Common. Whether you want a vegetable garden, a bold flower bed, or both, we tailor height, layout and materials to your planting plans. Expect crisp edges, neat levels and a finish that looks like it has always belonged.
Bromley’s mix of large detached houses, Victorian villas and modern developments often comes with very different garden challenges. In Shortlands and Bickley we commonly work with mature plots and established planting, so we design beds that sit comfortably alongside existing landscaping. Newer gardens may need more structure, screening and defined zones for entertaining and growing. Our designs balance practicality with a premium look that suits an affluent Kent borough with busy households and high expectations.
We start with a site visit to measure, check levels, and discuss what you want to grow and how you use the space. Then we build sturdy frames, prepare the base, add quality topsoil/compost if required, and leave everything tidy and ready to plant. You’ll get clear options, transparent pricing and workmanship backed by a 10-year warranty. Homeowners choose us for reliable scheduling, clean finishes and beds that stay straight and solid.
Gardens in the raised beds Bromley area can vary from free-draining sandy patches to heavier clay, so we adapt the base build-up and soil mix for reliable results. Access can be tight near Bromley South station and busier roads, so we plan deliveries and waste removal to minimise disruption. We also consider boundaries, mature trees and drainage runs common in older plots. If needed, we’ll advise on sensible bed heights and placement to avoid damp against walls and fencing.

Costs vary by size, height, material and whether you want soil and planting included. As a guide, raised beds typically start around £200–£800 per bed for simpler builds. Larger or premium schemes with multiple beds, brick or stonework, steps, edging and bulk soil often fall in the £400–£1,500 range overall. We’ll confirm measurements on site and provide options to match your budget and finish.
Most raised bed installations take 1–2 days, depending on the number of beds, the material (sleepers are usually quicker than brick or stone), and site access for deliveries. Ground preparation also affects timing, especially if we’re removing old turf, roots or existing borders. If you’re adding topsoil/compost, irrigation or edging to match paths, we’ll schedule the work so the garden stays usable throughout.
In most cases, raised beds in back gardens are permitted and don’t require planning permission. However, rules can change if you’re in a conservation area, working near a listed building, altering boundary walls, or building unusually tall structures close to neighbours. We’ll flag any potential issues during the survey and can advise what to check with the London Borough of Bromley before work starts, so you avoid problems later.
Yes. Our raised beds come with a 10-year warranty on workmanship, covering issues such as structural movement caused by installation faults, fixings failing, or joints separating under normal use. Natural weathering of timber, minor seasonal movement, and plant-related issues aren’t typically covered, but we’ll explain how to maintain the finish and maximise lifespan. If there’s a problem, we respond quickly and put it right.
We build sleeper beds, brick beds, stone beds and metal beds, tailored to your garden style and planting goals. Popular options include L-shaped vegetable gardens, stepped beds for sloped lawns, and formal flower beds to frame patios and paths. We’ll help you choose heights for comfort, recommend soil depths for veg or perennials, and match colours and textures to existing paving, fencing and planting.
