Question 1

What is GardenBlocks made of?

Accepted Answer

GardenBlocks are made from solid Northern European pine wood — not cedar. Each block is precision-milled and finished with a food-safe protective treatment, so it is safe for growing vegetables, herbs, and flowers with no harsh chemical preservatives.

Question 2

How does the modular system work?

Accepted Answer

Think LEGO for your garden. The pine blocks stack and interlock using hidden steel connectors. No tools, no glue, no screws needed. You can build, reconfigure, extend, or disassemble your project at any time.

Question 3

Do I need tools to assemble it?

Accepted Answer

No. A typical raised bed goes up in 10–20 minutes using only your hands. Larger retaining walls or sandboxes take a bit longer, but the process stays the same: stack, click, done.

Question 4

What can I build with GardenBlocks?

Accepted Answer

Raised garden beds, retaining walls, terrace edges, outdoor benches, kids' sandboxes, compost enclosures, and custom planter boxes. You can start with a ready-made kit or design your own size in our 3D configurator.

Question 5

What sizes are available?

Accepted Answer

We offer ready-to-order kits in popular raised-bed, bench, and sandbox sizes. For fully custom dimensions, use the 3D configurator or the Get a quote form and enter your own length, width, and height.

Question 6

How long does pine wood last outdoors?

Accepted Answer

With our protective finish and good drainage, pine blocks last many years outdoors. Occasional re-oiling keeps the natural look and extends the lifespan even further. We also offer optional inner liners for raised beds.

Question 7

Where do you deliver?

Accepted Answer

Question 9

Can I get a custom size or colour?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Use the 3D configurator to design a custom-size garden bed, or fill out the Get a quote form. You can choose natural pine, dark brown, grey, or request a custom colour.

Question 10

Is it safe for children and pets?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Pine is untreated and food-safe. Our sandboxes are designed for children with rounded edges and no exposed hardware, so they are safe for little hands and paws.

Question 11

What's the warranty?

Accepted Answer

We offer a 5-year warranty against structural defects. If a block warps, cracks, or a connector fails under normal use, we will replace it free of charge.

Question 12

Can I return my order?

Accepted Answer

Standard products can be returned within 14 days of delivery in original condition. Custom-sized planters and bespoke projects are non-refundable, but they are still covered by our 5-year warranty.
