Custom Outdoor Greenhouse Installations

A greenhouse turns Iowa's short growing season into a long one. Start tomatoes in March, push your last harvest into November, and nurture cuttings, citrus, and tender plants right through winter.

Why a greenhouse

Two extra seasons in your backyard

Eastern Iowa gardeners get roughly 150 frost-free days a year. A well-built outdoor greenhouse can stretch that to 250 or more — without supplemental heat — and gives you a place to start seedlings in late winter, harden off transplants, and overwinter rosemary, citrus, and other plants that wouldn't otherwise survive here. Every greenhouse we build is sized and oriented for your specific yard, not pulled out of a kit catalog.

📏

Sized to Fit

From compact 6×8 lean-tos against the south side of your house to freestanding 12×20 four-season structures — built around your space and goals.

☀️

Glazing Options

Twin-wall polycarbonate, tempered glass, or greenhouse-grade poly film — chosen for light transmission, insulation, and budget.

🌬️

Real Ventilation

Roof vents, side louvers, and optional automatic openers — because an Iowa greenhouse hits 110°F on a sunny April afternoon if it can't breathe.

What's included

From footing to first seedling

A greenhouse installation is a real building project — site prep, foundation, frame, glazing, ventilation, and the interior fit-out that turns it into a working space. We handle all of it.

  • Site evaluation for sun, wind, drainage, and access
  • Foundation: gravel pad, treated runners, or concrete piers
  • Custom-built frame in cedar, treated lumber, or aluminum
  • Twin-wall polycarbonate, glass, or poly-film glazing
  • Hinged or sliding door, sealed and weather-stripped
  • Roof vents and side louvers — manual or auto-open
  • Optional interior benches, potting station, and shelving
  • Optional electrical, heated mat circuit, or rain-fed irrigation
  • Walk-through covering airflow, watering, and seasonal use

Grow year-round
