Re-roofing of a Venlo Glasshouse that had a polytunnel style roof
Ebtech Glasshouse Systems have completed the re-roofing of a Venlo Glasshouse that had a polytunnel style roof on it, taking it back to the more traditional glass roof found on a Venlo structure at Binsted Nursery in Barnham, West Sussex.
The roof consisted of 18 spans of 3.2m over a length of 69m at a post height of 4.5m, total surface area 3,974.40m²
The existing steel gutter remained in place, but everything else was removed
The existing roof ventilation system was replaced with a swing vent system, operated via Ridder motors.
A total of 414pcs of three pane vents were installed alternate sides of the ridge, each measuring 3 x 730 x 825mm.
The gable end glass down to the first purlin was also made good.
The replacement roof was all made up of used materials from the Netherlands.
A difficult and demanding project, given some of the weather conditions, but a successful project and a happy client at the end.
