Some benefits of using raised garden beds.

Raised garden beds can produce up to twice  the amount of  vegetables and flowers per square meter when compared to normal in-ground beds.  Raised garden beds greatly reduce soil compaction which allows increased productivity.   They allow you to easily introduce and contain fresh or new soils to your garden  and with the increased depth, root systems to flourish.  They can also be designed to drain away excess moisture more effectively than ordinary in-ground garden beds.

Raised garden beds are much easier to work on as they can be designed to a height that suits you particular needs.  As a result, your back and knees will thank you!

You can use them to create a garden on a concrete or paved areas and by internally lining them with a geo-fabric, only the water will seep through leaving your soils nicely contained.

So what do our customers say?

Gillian from West Hobart,

“I am more than happy with the garden bed…I love the look which is why I chose them. They blend in nicely with the garden and the height is just right.”

Sue from west hobart…

“I’ve been delighted with the two beds that Dovetail Timbers built last year. They produced an amazing crop of tomatoes, were very easy to look after, and 12 months later are still in great shape, ready for planting a new crop. I was so satisfied that this year I’ve added another [dovetail timbers] raised bed to my garden.”
