FAQs
This is largely dependent on what type of greenhouse you have/intend to purchase. The plastic glazing on our polycarbonate greenhouses allows them to last for an extended period of time, thanks to being stronger and more durable than glass in a glass greenhouse. A greenhouse which is well looked after and not exposed to exceptionally bad weather conditions all year round can be expected to last for a number of years.
Assuming your greenhouse is of a high quality - such as the ones sold here at Garden Buildings Direct - then you’ll be able to use it effectively for the vast majority of the calendar year, with the only anomaly being in periods of exceptionally cold weather. Heated greenhouses further allow for year-round use, but often aren’t cost effective. See how other customers have used their greenhouses year-round.
At Garden Buildings Direct we believe that wooden framed greenhouses with polycarbonate glazing offer the best all-round options. They:
Are sturdy and durable
Are competitively priced
Maintain a traditional aesthetic
Are safer than glass
Maintain ambient temperature well
If this is a question that has been playing on your mind the answer is probably yes. Even a small greenhouse can be a great space for people who love to garden but find kneeling for long periods, or being out in the cold, hard. Greenhouses are a relatively inexpensive way to create a year-round growing environment for plants, fruit, and vegetables and can be the starting point for a lifelong hobby.
This depends partly on the material your greenhouse is made out of, with some maintenance general tips shared between the models.
If you have a wooden greenhouse, maintaining the timber frame will likely be the most important part. Give your greenhouse regular top-ups of wood paint and treatment, and make sure any damage to the frame is fixed quickly and effectively.
Metal frames are less maintenance intensive, but you should try to keep their exterior painted as this will reduce the risk of rust forming on the building.
No matter the frame, ensure the glazing of your building is cleaned regularly and is kept intact. Breakages to the glazing, whether it is glass or the plastic of a polycarbonate greenhouse, means that the seal is broken and heat will be able to escape. Replace any broken glazing as soon as possible, and keep the gaps between frame and glazing tightly sealed.
Greenhouses
Growing your garden - and your gardening skills - is all too simple with a greenhouse. Grow more plants, vegetables and flowers, and tend to them for longer through the year, with the help of this traditional staple of British gardening.
Whether you want a full bloom of tomatoes, a spread of leafy vegetables to fill up your salads with, or simply want to try your hand with delicate flowers, a greenhouse can help you level up your growing efforts. Their protected interiors can also be useful stores for your garden tools and growing resources.
With varying designs and sizes, there’s a model out there that suits your demands - from cold-frame growhouses and small greenhouses to full-blown greenhouses.
While they may not fit the image of a traditional greenhouse, wooden-framed greenhouses are superb environments for growing and offer some distinct advantages over glass greenhouses.
First, the wooden frame preserves more heat than their metal counterparts do, which means that heat transfer out of the building is reduced - ideal for keeping your plants warm during winter. Timber is also cheaper than metal, and easier to repair, creating a building that is better value for your money and with a longer potential lifespan.
A metal greenhouse is the traditional design - a metal frame with an apex roof and glazing panels. This is a tried and tested design, one that has met the needs of gardeners throughout the centuries.
Metal doesn’t retain heat easily, which can be advantageous during warmer periods of the year when you don’t want the interior getting too hot, however this does mean that temperatures are not retained as efficiently during the winter.
While not a greenhouse by technical standards, a potting shed performs the same function as a greenhouse but with a design that provides less space for growing and more space for different kinds of functionality.
Utilising the shape of a typical garden shed, a potting shed is equipped with glazing on one side to allow in natural light for your growing. The other side of the building can be equipped with effective vertical storage for gardening tools and resources, or with more potting shelves - although they won’t all get as much light as they would in a regular greenhouse.
