Here is an example of a base that was built to accept one of our popular eight by ten foot greenhouses. The greenhouse base consists of a simple concrete footing about the width of a spade by a minimum of 4 inches (100mm) deep. On top of the footing we recommend laying a single coarse of solid bricks . In this example the customer has chosen to put a matching brick pathway down the centre of the greenhouse base. Either side of the pathway is earth but this has been tidied up with the use of gravel which has the benefit of allowing free drainage within the greenhouse. Should you choose to plant something in the ground within the greenhouse in the future then such a base would allow this.
