Twin wall polycarbonate should be suitable LB. I think that would be the cheapest and easiest to measure daitheplant though i would dearly love a proper glass one

I would love the companies name daitheplant, though postage here is a little dearer . I got replacement polycarb for my 8 X 12 for £250 including postage , which I thought was great and no damage .

Here is a picture of the brand new 4 x6 greenhouse frame and base I got for £60. It is £305 from B&Q at the minute with horticultural glass. sadly mine does not have a window for some reason so must be an older version. I think it may be an eden so perhaps I can buy one or failing that just make one myself I had to do that on my norfolk greenhouse. www.diy.com/departments/bq-6x4-horticultural-glass-greenhouse/251150_BQ.prd

Eventually got the frame up . I forgot just how difficult it was to get the ground level . My last small Gh, just on a wooden base, blew away base and all so I have staked the wood base, screwed the metal base to that AND laid cement slabs to hold it down, so this is going nowhere . Have to measure up now for the covering . I may do the easy bits in glass and the roof and v shaped in polycarb .this will be my tomato house . Might even paint it red

oops forgot the picture here it is , minus the door which is inside the house . ...... Wait.. what ? The door to your greenhouse is inside your house ? Are we talking ... like... some sort of spacial anomaly here ? No more having to step out into the rain in order to get into the greenhouse ! Now THATS cool. I like it.

And wouldn`t that be just lovely roofy . I think that would be called a conservatory.

Just a pic. of the greenhouse now with the tomatoes & cucumbers which are starting to look a bit tired now but still fruiting & peppers, basil etc. on the potting table & a cucamelon just by the door on the right. Ignore all the mess on the lefthand side!
