Greenhouse Construction of Your Custom Greenhouse

.

By Judith Rockwell


Custom greenhouse construction is a dream but before you build one there are major thoughts to consider in the costs.

Primarily, Greenhouse building is a specialty construction. You should not hire a company that doesn't have experience in building greenhouses. These greenhouses are costly and you should require them to be constructed by true greenhouse craftsmen.

Some of the pitfalls consisting of building a greenhouse is dependent on the contractor's experience, timing, knowledge of materials used and specific procedures. You will discover that there are specific clips, bolts, corners, and working with glass or polycarbonate is also a honed skill. The materials are aluminum, glass, specific and unique bolts and clips to the industry and to each individual greenhouse manufacturer. If you try to cut corners by hiring a local builder you will be disappointed and will lose a large amount of money in the end.

Next, it is important the builder knows the ins and outs of the manufacturing process. The production of a greenhouse is important in planning your custom greenhouse. From the style, the location the purpose and the additions such as doors, vents, air flow, air conditioners, misters or heating units all are needed knowledge of the greenhouse builder. The tools and parts are exclusive to the greenhouse craftsman. And just like any art form, you will not want any room for error.

Next, it is a team effort to build a greenhouse. From the first of the process, the designer, the builder, the manufacturer, the contractors to the laborers, all must be in sync with one another. The weather, the placement, the needs of the customer are all considered in every step along the way. Ignoring the importance of these could result in disappointment or loss. For example, if part of the team, the manufacturer sends the wrong part, or the builder does not hire ample workers, time is lost and so is the money. If a kit was ordered and parts were missing, the completion may not ever take place! Having to wait on a part or re-order the part costs time and money.

Finally, the process of building a greenhouse is a tightly fit schedule and process and the steps from beginning to end are all very important in the planning. It starts with the dream, the plan, the sketch, the working drawings, the quote, builder and manufacturer working with their architect, and finally the slab or contractor used along side of the greenhouse building. A local contractor will not have a group of experts at hand as readily as the greenhouse builder. He will have no knowledge of where to put a door or vent and how it pertains to the function of growing in a greenhouse. All factors involved in developing a greenhouse are many and the builder and manufacturer are keenly aware of the entire procedures. They are all well equipped to work with one another, for the pre and post planning phases of the custom greenhouse construction.

There are a few things to consider when planning your custom greenhouse. Your greenhouse builder should be knowledgeable enough to talk to you about every detail some of the crucial issues in building a greenhouse.
