A well-built raised bed makes gardening easier, tidier and more productive, especially where space is tight. We design and install beds that suit how you use your garden, whether that’s a vegetable patch or a statement flower border. Working across SW16, we’re regularly on jobs near Norbury station and along Norbury High Street. Expect clean lines, solid edging and soil levels set for healthy growth.
Norbury gardens vary hugely, from compact plots behind Victorian conversions to longer lawns at Edwardian houses and 1930s semis. We plan bed heights and layouts to improve access, reduce bending and make planting manageable year-round. If you’re in Thornton Heath or Streatham Vale, we’ll tailor the design to your boundaries, drainage and sunlight. The result is a bed that looks like it belongs with the property, not an afterthought.
Our process starts with a site visit to check levels, access and what you want to grow. We then build the frame, prepare a stable base, line where needed, and fill with the right blend of topsoil and compost. We keep disruption low, protect paths and lawns, and leave the garden tidy at the end of each day. Local homeowners choose us for clear pricing, consistent workmanship and a finish that lasts.
In the raised beds Norbury area, we often work with mixed ground conditions and gardens that slope slightly away from the house. Access can be narrow on some streets near Pollards Hill, so we plan deliveries and waste removal carefully and keep pathways clear. We also consider boundary walls, shared fences and any nearby trees when setting bed positions and depths. If any council considerations apply in the London Borough of Croydon, we’ll flag them early and advise on the best approach.

For Raised Beds in Norbury, most projects fall within £200–£800 per bed depending on size, height and material. Sleeper beds are often cost-effective, while brick, stone or metal beds can cost more due to materials and labour. Typical overall spend is around £400–£1,500 when you include multiple beds, soil/compost fills, liners, drainage layers and any groundwork to level the area.
Most raised bed installations take 1–2 days, depending on how many beds you want and the chosen build type. A single sleeper bed on a prepared surface can be completed quickly, while brick or stone beds usually take longer due to foundations and setting time. Access, removal of old borders, levelling, and the volume of soil/compost to bring in can also affect the schedule.
Raised beds are usually classed as minor garden works and don’t require planning permission in most cases. That said, rules can change if you’re in a conservation area, if the bed forms part of a larger retaining structure, or if it affects drainage onto neighbouring land. We’ll ask the right questions at survey stage and, if needed, help you check any London Borough of Croydon guidance before work begins.
Yes. We provide a 10-year warranty on our workmanship for raised bed construction, covering issues such as structural movement caused by poor installation, fixings failing, or edging coming loose under normal garden use. The warranty doesn’t cover accidental damage, misuse, or natural ageing of certain materials (for example, timber weathering). We’ll also advise on simple maintenance to keep everything performing well.
