Borders (Sleepers)

Sleepers give a garden its edges. They hold a bed up, keep gravel where it belongs, and draw a clean line between lawn, path and planting.
We build sleeper borders and raised beds that are fixed properly, so they do not lean or creep, and that suit whatever sits next to them.

Worth knowingbefore you book.
Old railway sleepers
Genuine reclaimed railway sleepers were treated with creosote. They should not be used where skin will touch them often, or where food is grown. New sleepers do not have that problem.
Why raise a bed
A raised bed warms up sooner in spring, drains better, and is easier on the back.

Not answered here? Ask us, or call 07738 663396.
Can you build raised beds for growing vegetables?
Yes. For beds where food is grown, new sleepers are the right choice rather than reclaimed railway ones.
Can sleepers hold back soil on a slope?
For low changes in level, yes. Send a photo and we will tell you what the slope needs.
Do sleeper borders work with gravel?
Yes. Keeping gravel and other loose materials where they belong is one of the main reasons to have them.
