Raised planters and garden borders: what's involved
What the service is
We build raised planters in rendered block, timber and sleepers, and create new garden borders with clean edges, planned as part of the wider garden.
Who it's for
Anyone who wants more structure in their garden, planting raised above wet or poor ground, or beds that are easier to reach.
When it makes sense
As part of a new patio or garden redesign, or on their own to update a tired garden.
What we don't do
We build planters and borders. We don't offer ongoing garden maintenance or planting upkeep.

What happens if it's left
Planters and borders look simple, but poor construction shows quickly.
Bowing or rotting planters
Timber that isn't built properly can bow outwards or rot.
Waterlogged planting
Planters without drainage drown plants.
Messy edges
Borders without proper edging spread into lawns and paths.
Common mistakes we see
- ✕ Building planters without drainage.
- ✕ Using untreated timber in contact with soil.
- ✕ Leaving borders without edging.
