Costs depend on size, height, material and access. As a guide, simple timber sleeper beds often start from around £350–£700 for small runs, while larger or taller beds commonly fall between £900–£2,500+. Brick or stone beds usually cost more due to foundations and labour, often £1,200–£4,000+ for substantial builds. Tiered beds, curved layouts, soil supply and planting add to the total.

Larger schemes—multiple beds, tiered designs, brickwork, or significant level changes—typically take 3–7 days.
