Frequently Asked Questions

Q.  What are railway sleepers?A. They're large, durable wooden beams used in gardens for building raised beds, edging, retaining walls, and landscape features.
Q.  What are the benefits of raised beds?A. Improved drainage, easier access for planting, better soil control, and a clean, tidy look — especially in formal or small gardens.
Q.   Can raised beds be built on sloped ground?A. Yes. We specialise in using sleepers to create level beds, terraces, or steps on uneven or sloping sites.
Q.  What finishes do you offer for sleeper work?A. We use treated softwood sleepers (natural or brown) but can also stain, oil, or paint them if you prefer a different look.
Q.  How long will the timber last?A. Pressure-treated sleepers can last 10–15 years or more, especially with proper installation and occasional treatment.
Q.  Can I request a custom shape or layout?A. Absolutely. All beds and structures are built to your measurements and preferences — whether straight-edged, curved, multi-level, or raised.
