If your borders slump, lawns creep into planting, or you want a neat veg plot, raised beds are a practical upgrade. We design and build sleeper beds, brick beds, stone beds and metal beds for gardens across Cheam Village and around Nonsuch Park. Raised beds add structure, improve drainage and make maintenance far easier. They also create clear lines that suit both traditional and contemporary planting schemes.
Cheam’s mix of period cottages, 1930s houses and larger executive homes often comes with mature gardens and established boundaries. We build beds that work with existing patios, paths and fencing, and we’re used to side access constraints on SM2 and SM3 streets. Whether you’re after a formal flower bed to frame the lawn or a productive vegetable garden, we tailor height, layout and edging details to your property. The result feels intentional, not bolted on.
Our process starts with a site visit to measure, discuss planting goals and confirm levels and drainage. We then specify materials, set out clean lines, prepare a stable base and build for strength and longevity. You’ll get clear, written options and tidy workmanship from start to finish, with waste removed and the garden left usable. Local homeowners choose us for reliable scheduling, careful finishing and a warranty-backed build.
We know the varied ground conditions found across the London Borough of Sutton, from compacted soils to areas needing improved drainage. Many Cheam gardens have limited side access, so we plan deliveries, cutting and assembly to minimise disruption. We also factor in parking and working hours where streets are busy near Cheam Village and local schools. Every bed is set out to suit existing levels, patios and boundary lines for a crisp finish.

Costs vary by size, material and groundwork. As a guide, simple sleeper beds often start from around £250–£600 for small runs, while larger or tiered builds can be £900–£2,500+. Brick or stone beds typically cost more due to foundations and labour, commonly £1,200–£4,000+ for substantial features. We’ll confirm access, waste removal and soil requirements before providing a detailed quote.
Most straightforward sleeper beds are completed in 1–2 days, including base preparation and tidy-up. Larger layouts, multiple beds, tiered sections or brick/stone construction usually take 3–7 days depending on curing times and site access. Timescales are affected by ground levels, removal of old borders, drainage improvements and whether you want soil supply and planting included. We’ll agree a schedule before work starts.
Raised flower beds are usually classed as garden landscaping and don’t need planning permission. However, rules can change if you’re in a conservation area, altering boundary walls, or building very tall retaining structures close to neighbours. In parts of Cheam, especially near historic areas, it’s sensible to check constraints before starting. We’ll flag any potential issues and advise when a quick check with the London Borough of Sutton is worthwhile.
Yes. Our raised bed installations come with a 10-year warranty covering workmanship and structural integrity when built to our specification. This includes fixings, stability and alignment, and it applies to sleeper, brick, stone and metal bed builds. The warranty doesn’t cover natural weathering, plant failure, or damage caused by ground movement from external factors or third-party works. We’ll explain care tips to maximise lifespan.
We build sleeper beds for a warm, natural look, plus brick beds and stone beds to match existing walls or period details. For a crisp contemporary finish, metal beds are popular, especially for clean-edged vegetable gardens. Design options include tiered beds for slopes, corner beds to use awkward spaces, and mixed-height flower beds for layered planting. We help you choose based on style, budget, drainage and how you’ll use the space.
