- Damaged Gutter: The gutter was damaged, leading to water leakage and potential structural issues.
- Roof Complications: To replace the gutter, the roof needed to be stripped back, posing a challenge for maintaining the structural integrity and avoiding further damage.
- Operational Disruption: The work needed to be completed efficiently to minimise disruption to Plants for Trade’s operations.

The Process:
Commercial Glasshouse Contracts Ltd provided a comprehensive service to address these issues effectively:
- Roof Stripping: Our skilled team carefully stripped back the roof to access the damaged gutter without causing additional damage.
- Gutter Replacement: We replaced the damaged gutter with a high-quality, durable gutter system to ensure long-term reliability and performance.
- Roof Reinstatement: The roof was expertly reinstated, ensuring it was secure and watertight, restoring the greenhouse to full functionality.


The Result:
The successful execution of the project resulted in several key benefits for Plants for Trade:
- Restored Structural Integrity: The replacement gutter and restored roof ensured the greenhouse was structurally sound and protected from water damage.
- Minimised Disruption: The project was completed efficiently, minimising downtime and allowing Plants for Trade to continue their operations with little interruption.
- Enhanced Durability: The new gutter system provided improved durability, reducing the likelihood of future issues and maintenance needs.
