Why Choose Raised Beds for Your Garden?
Raised beds are the perfect choice for your garden because they are easy to navigate and improve soil structure and drainage.
Elevating your planting areas gives you much better control over the soil's temperature and quality, making it easier to grow healthy shrubs.
The common materials used to create raised beds are pine or cedar wood, brick, stone, and sometimes even recycled composite materials. These materials offer a clean, natural look and durability.
Raised flower beds reduce the growth of harmful weeds and prevent soil compaction, which results in limited water entry and makes it difficult for roots to grow.

Custom Raised Bed Construction
Custom raised beds allow you to carefully select features that perfectly fit your garden space and your needs. Our professionals will be right there with you to help you choose from a number of materials, including cedar, stone, or pressure-treated wood.
We'll ensure it matches your garden's style and provides plenty of durability.
Installation of Raised Beds
At Star Landscapes, not only do we help you design and supply materials, but we'll also install raised beds for you.
Once we've picked out level, sunny locations, we begin assembling the frame using the materials you picked. After the frame is fixed into place, we fill it with quality topsoil, compost and organic matter.
Soil Preparation and Filling
We'll help prepare your soil, ensuring good drainage at the bottom of your beds using landscape fabric or gravel.
After filling your raised beds with the soil, we'll mix it thoroughly. This will avoid soil compaction and encourage the best possible conditions for your plant growth.
Integrated Irrigation Systems
Soaker hoses or drip irrigation are examples of integrated irrigation systems. These provide consistent watering to your plant and its roots.
In some circumstances, these can be connected to a timer for automation, which will help you reduce water waste and save lots of time.
Maintenance and Upkeep
Raised bed maintenance services often include soil replenishment, weeding, pruning, and sometimes pest control.
Regular upkeep is needed to keep your plants thriving and prevent any issues. If you find your raised beds need repairing due to lots of wear and tear, give us a call today.
Wheelchair Accessible Raised Beds
Raised garden beds are perfect for creating environments that make gardening much easier and more accessible for those using wheelchairs or mobility problems.
The most significant benefit of raising your flower beds is that they reduce the need to kneel, bend, or crouch.
This will allow gardeners to work at a comfortable height while seated. For wheelchair accessibility, any flower beds should typically be about 30-36 inches tall to ensure they can be easily reached without strain.
The width of the bed should be at most 4 feet wide, as this will allow access to plants and flowers from all sides.
Why Choose Us for Raised Bed Installation
Hiring our professionals to install raised beds or tables is a great choice, as we can tailor them to your particular needs.
Raised tables provide elevated seating for gardening, ensuring extra comfort and ease throughout each job you take on, such as watering plants, cutting dead leaves, or repotting plants. At Star Landscapes, we help design beds and tables of the correct height and layout to suit you.
If you're confident, you can DIY; however, you'll achieve better custom features with our pros. The costs in the UK typically range around £200-£500 depending on the size, amount and design. You can give us a call today, and we'll schedule an initial site visit to determine the price.
