How much does a larch raised garden bed cost?
The price depends on the length, width and height of the bed, and you see it as soon as you enter a size. Parts come in lengths from 4¾ to 23⅝ mm in steps of 2⅜ mm, so every size has a price, not just ready-made ones. The price including VAT for your country is shown by the configurator on the home page and by the Studio, and the cart calculates shipping before you pay. If payment in your country's own currency is switched on, we convert the price from euros at our weekly rate and you pay exactly the amount you see before payment; otherwise you pay in euros.
How long do wooden raised garden beds last?
In an ordinary garden 15–25 years, and with good drainage and no permanent standing in water even 25+ years. The bed is made of solid European larch, 2⅜ mm thick, in durability class 3–4 under EN 350, with no chemical treatment. How larch compares with other materials is covered in the questions about wood.
Does a raised garden bed need treating, painting or a liner?
It does not need treating or painting: larch is naturally durable and we use it without chemical treatment. We do recommend lining the inner walls with a sturdy liner, a dimpled membrane or the densest sheet that can still be folded. It keeps moist soil away from the wood. We do not sell liners, you can buy one at a garden center. In the sun the wood turns gray without losing strength, outdoor wood oil keeps the warm tone.
When will my order arrive and where do you deliver?
We dispatch your order within 5–10 working days of payment, and delivery takes a further 2–7 days. We deliver to 25 countries of the European Union, all except Cyprus and Malta. You see the shipping cost in the cart before you pay, and details are on the Shipping and returns page.
Can I assemble it myself? What tools do I need?
Yes, you can assemble it yourself without power tools. The parts lock together without screws or drilling, and all you need is a rubber mallet and a piece of board as a pad. The 3D guide shows every layer, and for each part you see where it goes. A level base helps, and the steps are in the questions about assembly.
Can I design a custom-size bed and buy it straight away?
Yes. In the Studio you draw the shape and size, the Studio picks the cheapest combination of parts and shows the price right away. Length and width change in steps of 2⅜ mm. You then add the design to your cart using the parts list. Designing is free and needs no registration, you only pay for the parts you order.
What is the warranty and can I return the goods?
The warranty is 24 months from receipt of the goods. You can withdraw from the purchase within 14 days of receipt without giving a reason. The procedure is on the Withdrawal from contract page, with details in the terms and conditions.
Can AI help me design a garden?
Yes. In the Studio you describe the garden you want or upload a photo of it, and AI suggests beds, a layout and planting, which you can then adjust. Without registration you get 3 free messages a day, and after you verify your e-mail you get 150 free AI credits. More credits are in the Studio pricing.
