Default Greenhouse Base

This sort of relates to the question I asked last night, as we already
have a solid concrete base, but the greenhouse we are thinking of
purchasing comes supplied with a base. I presume that from your query,
a concrete base will be preferable to anything supplied by B & Q!
Perhaps the one we are thinking about is cheap enough to discard the
purchased base?

Assuming your base is a solid greenhouse sized block of concrete which
will also form the floor of the greenhouse, what you are likely to get
with the greenhouse is a rectangular metal 'wall' about 6 inches high.
If you fasten that to your concrete base, with the greenhouse on top, it
will give you a little extra height, which is well worth having

Hi Kay
Thankyou so much for that - I will take this on board and am very
likely to use this idea. We will wait until the January sales now
though
Best Wishes
