If your garden needs clearer structure or easier planting, raised beds are a simple upgrade with a big visual impact. We design and build sleeper beds, brick beds, stone beds and metal beds for homes around Denmark Hill station and King’s College Hospital. Whether you want a productive vegetable garden or a statement flower bed, we tailor the height, edging and layout to your space. Every build is finished cleanly, with crisp lines and stable foundations.
Denmark Hill has a mix of Victorian terraces, Georgian houses and purpose-built flats, often with compact rear gardens or paved courtyards. We’re used to working with narrow side returns, shared access and existing patios that need beds integrated neatly. For period properties in Camberwell and Herne Hill, we can match materials to traditional brickwork and boundary walls. Where space is tight, corner beds and tiered beds add planting without sacrificing walkways.
We start with a site visit to measure levels, check drainage and agree a design that fits how you use the garden. Then we prepare a solid base, install the chosen edging, and fill with quality topsoil suited to your planting plan. We keep you updated throughout, protect surrounding paving, and leave the site tidy at the end of each day. Homeowners choose us for reliable scheduling, durable builds and straightforward aftercare advice.
SE5 gardens often sit on mixed London clay and made ground, so we prioritise drainage layers and stable footings to prevent shifting. Access can be limited near Denmark Hill station and around Maudsley Hospital, so we plan deliveries and waste removal carefully. We also factor in parking restrictions and work hours to keep disruption low. Our designs suit Southwark’s Victorian plots as well as modern flat gardens with hard landscaping.

Costs vary by size, materials and access in SE5. As a guide, small sleeper or metal beds often start around £350–£800, while larger runs or tiered beds are typically £900–£2,500+. Brick or stone beds usually cost more due to foundations and labour, commonly £1,200–£4,000+ depending on length and height. We provide a clear written quote after a site visit.
Most single raised beds can be built in 1 day, including base preparation and filling. A set of multiple beds, tiered layouts or long sleeper runs usually takes 2–4 days. Brick and stone beds can take 3–7 days because of footings, curing time and detailed finishing. Timescales depend on access, waste removal, ground levels and whether we’re integrating beds with patios or paths.
Raised beds are usually permitted garden works and don’t need planning permission, especially when they’re not forming a boundary wall or significantly altering ground levels. That said, rules can change for listed buildings, conservation areas, or if a bed is acting like a retaining structure near a neighbour’s boundary. We’ll flag any potential issues during the survey and can advise on checking Southwark guidance where needed.
Yes. Our installations come with a 10-year warranty on workmanship, covering issues such as movement caused by poor base preparation or structural fixing failures. Materials are selected for durability, and any manufacturer warranties (for example, on metal edging) are passed on where applicable. The warranty doesn’t cover accidental damage, misuse, or normal weathering, but we’re always happy to advise on maintenance.
We build sleeper beds for a natural look, brick beds to complement period homes, stone beds for a premium finish, and metal beds for clean modern lines. Design options include vegetable gardens with practical heights, flower beds with curved edges, tiered beds for sloped gardens, and corner beds to maximise awkward spaces. We help you choose based on style, budget, sun exposure, and how you want to use the garden year-round.
