Richmond gardens deserve structure that looks refined and performs year-round. Whether you’re near Richmond Green or walking distance from Richmond Bridge, raised beds can transform awkward lawns, shaded corners and tired borders. We design and build sleeper beds, brick beds and stone beds that suit your planting style and the character of your property. The result is cleaner lines, better soil control and easier maintenance.
Across TW9 and TW10 we regularly work on Georgian townhouses, Victorian villas and premium riverside properties where space is valuable and detailing matters. In Kew, Ham and Petersham, we often see mature trees, mixed soil conditions and sloping lawns that benefit from tiered beds. Raised flower beds and sleeper beds Richmond area homeowners choose are typically designed to complement existing patios, paths and brickwork. We can also create compact vegetable gardens that maximise productive planting without crowding the rest of the garden.
We start with a site visit to measure levels, check access, and agree the look—modern metal edging or traditional timber sleepers. Then we prepare a stable base, install the bed structure, line where needed, and fill with high-quality topsoil or compost blends for your planting plans. Every build is finished neatly with crisp edges and careful clean-up. Homeowners trust us for clear communication, reliable scheduling and a 10-year warranty on workmanship.
Richmond gardens often combine mature tree roots, variable clay content and shaded areas, especially near Richmond Park and older streets. We design raised beds with proper foundations and drainage layers to avoid waterlogging and movement. Access and parking can be tight on residential roads, so we plan deliveries and waste removal to minimise disruption. We also align materials and heights to match local brickwork, boundary walls and conservation-area expectations where relevant.

Costs vary by size, material and access. As a guide, small sleeper beds often start around £350–£700, while larger runs or tiered beds can be £1,200–£3,000+. Brick or stone beds typically cost more due to groundwork and labour, often £1,500–£5,000+ depending on detailing. We’ll provide an itemised quote after measuring and confirming soil, levels and waste removal.
Most single raised beds are completed in 1 day, including base prep and filling. Larger layouts—multiple beds, tiered beds, or integrated edging and paths—usually take 2–4 days. Brick and stone beds can take longer due to curing times and more complex foundations. Timescales depend on access for materials, disposal requirements, ground levels and whether you want irrigation, lighting or planting included.
In most cases, raised flower beds and sleeper beds in London Borough of Richmond upon Thames gardens are permitted and don’t require planning permission. However, rules can be stricter in conservation areas, for listed buildings, or where work affects boundary walls, drainage or significant level changes. If your property is near protected sites or has restrictions, we’ll flag it early and help you check the council guidance before work begins.
We provide a 10-year warranty on workmanship for our raised bed installations, covering structural integrity and correct installation of fixings and bases under normal garden use. Materials are supplied to manufacturer specifications, and any product guarantees are passed on where applicable. The warranty doesn’t cover accidental damage, misuse, or issues caused by later alterations or poor drainage from unrelated works. We also advise on care to extend lifespan.
We build sleeper beds, brick beds, stone beds and metal beds, with options for vegetable gardens, flower beds, tiered beds and corner beds.

We’ll help you choose heights, finishes and soil blends based on planting, sunlight, and how you use the space, then provide a clear design plan.
