We design and build raised beds that frame patios, soften boundaries and create standout planting around entertaining areas near Clapham Common and Clapham Old Town.

In the raised flower beds and sleeper beds clapham area, we often introduce tiered beds to handle changes in level and to add depth without losing floor space. Our designs keep sightlines open and planting practical, even in compact plots.
We start with a site visit to measure, check levels, and discuss planting goals, then recommend materials that match your budget and the garden’s style. Every bed is built on a stable base with proper fixings and drainage layers, then finished with quality topsoil suited to flowers or edibles. We keep neighbours in mind, work cleanly, and leave the garden usable at the end of each day. Homeowners choose us for clear communication, reliable scheduling and workmanship backed by a long warranty.
Across the raised flower beds and sleeper beds in London Borough of Lambeth/Wandsworth, we often encounter mixed ground, compacted soil and tricky levels from older landscaping. Access can be tight in Clapham North and Clapham Park, so we plan deliveries, waste removal and on-site cutting to minimise disruption. Parking restrictions near busy routes and around Clapham Junction station can affect scheduling, and we factor that into timings. We also match bed styles to period brickwork and boundary walls common in local terraces.

Costs vary by size, height, material and access. As a guide, simple timber sleeper beds often start around £350–£900 for smaller runs, while larger or tiered layouts can be £1,200–£3,000+. Brick or stone beds typically begin around £1,000 and can reach £4,000+ for substantial builds with footings and coping. Metal beds sit mid-range depending on fabrication and finish. We provide itemised estimates after a site visit.
Most straightforward sleeper beds take 1–2 days, including ground prep, drainage and filling with soil. Larger schemes with multiple beds, tiered sections or integrated steps usually take 3–5 days. Brick or stone raised beds can take longer due to foundations, curing time and detailed finishing, often 4–7 days depending on complexity. Timescales are influenced by access, waste removal, existing hard landscaping and whether you want planting completed at the same time.
