Choosing the best types of greenhouse with Gabriel Ash

23rd April 2010

 

When choosing the ideal greenhouse, it is important to choose one that is of good quality as well as one that makes your garden look great. Gabriel Ash’s range of greenhouse are designed with top quality wood, aluminium and glass to provide you with everything you need to keep your greenhouse looking great and your plants at their best. Before selecting a greenhouse, you may wish to take a look at all the advantages of each type to see which one would be the most beneficial for you.

Aluminium and wood are the most popular types of greenhouse. Each type of design has their own variety of features, but both have different things to offer, so it is a good idea to research what is available to see what best suits your needs.

Aluminium greenhouses originally corroded quicker than other designs but have since been improved. They are now longer lasting and provide plenty of strength. This type of design is also cheaper than a wood greenhouse, as aluminium can easily be moulded into different shapes.

Although aluminium designs have many advantages, such as being less expensive, wood designs have a little more to offer. Wood designs provide a more attractive greenhouse and some types are designed to last much longer than aluminium greenhouses.

One of the best types of wood greenhouse designs is the Western Red cedar greenhouse. This type of greenhouse offers plenty of strength and durability, providing you with a longer lasting greenhouse. It may not be suitable for use on all types of greenhouse but it is still a great choice for those looking for something that offers plenty of features. Cedar wood not only repels insects, it also produces a pleasant aroma and ages beautifully, keeping your greenhouse and garden looking much more attractive. Another great wood design is Baltic Redwood, which like the Western Red Cedar, offers a longer lasting greenhouse.
