Frequently asked questions

What are the greenhouse made from?

They are timber frame greenhouses, using corrugated perspex. The perspex is UV treated therefore it will not go yellow or brittle over time.

Do I need to prepare the ground before Installation?

No….. as long as the ground is cleared and relatively level.

Can the greenhouse be fixed to the ground?

Yes – if installing onto grass we can peg it to the ground using timber, or if going onto concrete it can be screwed on.

Is there a warranty?
