Then we recommend the best construction method—sleepers for warmth and value, brick for a traditional finish, or metal for crisp modern lines. Every bed is built on a stable base, aligned properly, and finished with tidy edges and clean joints. Homeowners choose us for reliable scheduling, clear written scopes, and workmanship backed by a 10-year warranty.
Gardens around Grangewood Park and Broad Green often have mixed ground and slight level changes, so we set beds on solid foundations and allow for drainage. Many CR7 properties have narrow access routes, so we plan deliveries, cutting and waste removal to keep things tidy. We also consider boundary lines, shared fences and any local restrictions when positioning higher tiered or corner beds. If parking is limited, we schedule efficiently to minimise time on the street.
