Do I need a concrete foundation?

If you have a flat garden with normal soil stability, the answer is no. When you buy your greenhouse you can choose a suitable aluminium foundation profile – a stable base that eliminates the necessity of a concrete foundation. Once you have assembled the greenhouse, and after a few days, pour some fast-setting concrete around the provided ground anchors, to ensure extra stability.

But in cases where you have large height differences or unstable ground, the answer is yes, you do need a concrete foundation. If you choose a complete concrete foundation, we will supply a small foundation profile that you can fix to the concrete edge. Please note – making a concrete foundation 100% level requires precision, and concrete can expand in freezing cold conditions. This will cause your foundation to rise, putting profiles and windows under tension. So if you opt for a concrete foundation, lay it at least 60 cm deep to keep it completely frost-free.
