Greenhouse base timber or brick?
I am erecting an alloy framed greenhouse with plastic glazing and cannot decide whether to make a timber base or lay a course of bricks on morter. I know bricks and concrete are more permanent but I would be able to make a 4" square treated timber base much more easily. Anyone built one recently?
We have just erected one on our allotment, like you we weren't sure what to do, so we looked around at all the others on site. Most were on railway sleepers. So we did the same and have had no problems in all the high winds we have had.(live on the coast) We just cleared a flat area and buried the sleepers to about half their depth. Erected the greenhouse and there were holes already in the frame, so drilled and screwed it to the sleepers.
