If your borders slump, flood or feel hard to manage, raised beds bring structure and control. We build beds across CR8, from Purley Cross to Purley Oaks, creating crisp edges and deep, fertile planting zones. Whether you want a productive vegetable garden or a bold flower bed, we tailor the height and layout to your space. Expect a clean finish that complements patios, lawns and pathways.
Purley’s leafy plots often come with generous lawns and mature planting, especially around Kenley and Sanderstead. We regularly work on large detached houses, 1930s properties and period homes where levels, existing paving and established roots need careful handling. Raised beds can also help make sloping gardens more usable, with clear zones for seating, planting and access. The result is a garden that looks intentional and is easier to maintain.
We start with a site visit to confirm levels, drainage and access, then propose materials and a practical layout. Beds are built square, level and securely fixed, with quality topsoil and compost options for planting success. We protect surrounding surfaces, keep disruption low, and leave the garden tidy at the end of each day. Local homeowners choose us for reliable scheduling, skilled workmanship and a straightforward 10-year warranty.
Across the London Borough of Croydon, gardens can vary from flatter plots near Purley Way to more sloped ground towards Riddlesdown. We plan bed heights and footings to suit local levels, drainage and existing paving. Access and parking can be tighter on some residential roads, so we schedule deliveries and waste removal carefully. Our designs also suit Purley’s larger front and rear gardens, keeping proportions right for period and 1930s homes.

For raised beds Purley area projects, most homeowners budget £200–£800 per bed depending on size, material and groundwork. Simple sleeper beds are often at the lower end, while brick, stone or bespoke metal edging can increase costs. If you’re building multiple beds, adding steps, or replacing poor soil, the typical overall spend is often £400–£1,500. We’ll confirm after measuring and discussing finishes.
Most raised bed installations take 1–2 days, depending on the number of beds, material choice and site access. A single sleeper bed on level ground can be completed quickly, while brick or stone beds take longer due to foundations and curing time. Sloping gardens, root-heavy areas, and spoil removal can also extend the schedule. We’ll give you a clear timeline before work starts.
