Greenwich gardens often need clearer structure, especially where lawns meet paving or slopes drop away. We build raised beds that create defined planting zones and make maintenance simpler, whether you’re near Greenwich Park or closer to Maze Hill. Expect robust edging, accurate levels and a finish that complements your outdoor space. We can also integrate seating edges, steps or gravel surrounds for a complete look.
Across SE10 you’ll find Georgian townhouses, Victorian villas and modern waterfront apartments, each with different garden constraints. Period properties often benefit from brick or stone beds that echo existing walls, while newer builds suit sleek metal planters and crisp geometry. Where space is tight, corner beds and tiered beds maximise planting without crowding paths. We design layouts that work with light, access and how you actually use the garden.
We start with a site visit to measure levels, check drainage and confirm the best bed height for planting comfort. You’ll receive clear options on materials, edging details and soil build-up for flowers or vegetables. Our team protects paving, keeps the site tidy and removes waste promptly, with careful aftercare advice for the first season. Local homeowners choose us for reliable scheduling, detailed finishes and long-lasting construction.
The raised flower beds and sleeper beds Greenwich area often require careful levelling, especially around older terraces and properties near parkland. We plan for access constraints, shared alleyways and controlled parking common around Deptford and Blackheath. Ground conditions can vary from compacted clay to made-up soils in newer developments, so we specify the right base and drainage. If council considerations apply, we design to suit boundaries and sightlines.

Costs vary by size, height, materials and ground preparation. As a guide, small sleeper or timber beds often start around £350–£800, while larger or tiered builds commonly fall between £1,200–£3,500. Brick or stone beds and bespoke metal planters can be higher, typically £2,000–£6,000+ depending on foundations, copings and finishes. We’ll confirm a clear range after a site visit in SE10.
Many straightforward beds can be installed in 1–2 days, including excavation, base prep and filling with soil. Larger projects—tiered beds, multiple runs, or brick and stone builds—often take 3–7 days. Timescales depend on access, spoil removal, whether we’re integrating steps or edging, and curing time for masonry. We’ll provide a realistic schedule and keep disruption low.
In most rear gardens, raised beds are usually permitted development and don’t need planning permission. However, rules can change if works affect a listed building, sit within a conservation area, alter boundary walls, or significantly change ground levels and drainage. Properties near heritage-sensitive locations may need extra care. We’ll flag any likely constraints, advise on best practice, and help you check Royal Borough of Greenwich guidance where relevant.
Yes. Our installations come with a 10-year warranty covering workmanship and structural integrity of the bed build, such as fixings, alignment and stability, when used as intended. Natural movement in timber and minor settling can occur, so we build with correct bases and allow for drainage and ventilation. We’ll also advise on soil levels, liners and maintenance to help your beds stay looking sharp.
We design and build sleeper beds, brick beds, stone beds and modern metal beds, tailored to your garden style and budget. Popular choices include tiered beds for sloping lawns, corner beds to use awkward spaces, and dedicated vegetable gardens with deeper soil profiles. We can match brick tones to existing walls or choose stone copings for a premium finish. You’ll get material samples and layout advice before we build.
