A well-built raised bed makes planting simpler, improves drainage and gives your garden a crisp, finished look. We design and install beds for flowers and vegetable gardens across Sidcup, including DA14 and DA15. Whether you’re close to Sidcup High Street or walking distance from Foots Cray Meadows, we can create a layout that fits your space and sunlight. Expect clean lines, solid construction and a planting depth that actually works.
Sidcup’s mix of 1930s semis, Victorian houses and newer developments often comes with practical garden challenges—sloping lawns, compact patios, or tired borders that need redefining. We regularly build raised beds sidcup area homeowners use to frame paths, screen bins and fences, or create productive kitchen gardens. If you’re in Foots Cray, near Chislehurst, or over towards Bexley, we tailor the bed height and footprint to match the style of the property. The result looks intentional, not “added on”.
We start with a quick site visit to measure up, discuss materials and confirm access and waste removal. Your bed is built on a stable base, lined where needed, and filled with quality topsoil/compost to suit your planting plans. We keep the job tidy and communicate clearly from booking to handover. Local homeowners choose us for reliable timings, durable builds and straightforward aftercare advice.
Gardens in the London Borough of Bexley vary from compact plots to long rear gardens, and access can be tight around side passages and shared drives. We plan deliveries, parking and waste collection to avoid hassle, especially near busier spots like Queen Mary’s Hospital. Ground levels and existing patio edges are checked so beds sit square and don’t shift over time. We also match materials to local property styles—classic brick for period homes, sleepers for 1930s semis, and metal for modern developments.
Rated 4.9/5 from over 280 verified reviews
Most raised beds in Sidcup fall between £200–£800 per bed depending on size and material. Sleeper beds are often the most cost-effective, while brick, stone and metal can cost more due to materials and labour. If you’re creating multiple beds, adding steps/retaining edges, or need soil removal and fresh topsoil, the overall typical cost can be £400–£1,500 for the project.
Most installations take 1–2 days. A single sleeper bed on level ground can often be completed in a day, including lining and filling. Larger schemes with several beds, brick or stonework, or gardens that need levelling and soil removal usually take longer. Access also affects timings—narrow side paths, limited parking, or long carry distances from the front of the property can add time.
In most cases, raised beds are classed as minor garden works and don’t require planning permission. That said, rules can change if a bed acts like a retaining wall, significantly alters ground levels, or sits close to a boundary and could affect neighbours. If your property is listed or in a conservation area, extra checks may be needed. We’ll flag any concerns and advise before work starts.
Yes. Our raised bed builds come with a 10-year warranty on workmanship, covering structural issues such as movement caused by improper base preparation or fixings. It doesn’t cover natural weathering, normal timber ageing, or damage from impacts and third-party alterations. We’ll also explain simple maintenance steps—like keeping soil below the top edge and ensuring drainage—so your bed stays stable and looks good for years.
We build sleeper beds, brick beds, stone beds and metal beds, with designs ranging from simple rectangles to L-shapes, tiered layouts and integrated seating edges. For vegetable gardens we’ll recommend practical widths for easy reach and deeper soil where needed. For flower beds we can tailor height and edging detail to match paving and fencing. We’ll help you choose based on budget, garden style, and how you plan to use the space.
