Commonly Asked Questions About Custom Greenhouses

  • Selecting the right greenhouse size depends on your gardening goals, available space, and future needs. For hobby growers on the Sunshine Coast, a 6’ × 8’ (48 sq. ft.) or 10’ × 10’ (100 sq. ft.) greenhouse is a popular choice, offering plenty of room for plants—especially with vertical shelving—while still allowing for comfortable movement inside.

    It's important to consider factors like sunlight exposure, ventilation, and room for expansion. At Sunshine Coast Carpentry, we help you find the perfect balance between functionality and space efficiency. Through our personalized consultation, we assess your garden layout, discuss your growing plans, and design a custom greenhouse that fits seamlessly into your outdoor space. Whether you're looking for a compact structure or a full-scale growing haven, we ensure your greenhouse is built to support your vision for years to come.

  • Choosing the right materials is key to building a durable, high-performing greenhouse in our coastal climate. For the frame, Western Red Cedar is an excellent choice, naturally resisting moisture, rot, and insects for long-lasting strength. For glazing, polycarbonate panels provide superior insulation, evenly diffuse sunlight, and hold up well against harsh weather. If you prefer a more traditional or farmhouse aesthetic, glass windows offer a beautiful heritage look while still creating an ideal growing environment.

    Another important consideration is greenhouse flooring. Common options include:

    • Gravel – A cost-effective, well-draining choice that helps control moisture and prevents weed growth.

    • Concrete – A durable, low-maintenance option that retains heat well and provides a solid surface for shelving and workbenches.

    • Pavers or Brick – Offers a more decorative, natural look while providing good drainage and stability.

    • Compacted Soil – A simple, budget-friendly choice that works well for in-ground planting but may require added weed control.

    By selecting the right materials for both the structure and flooring, you’ll ensure your greenhouse not only stands the test of time but also provides the perfect space for year-round gardening.

  • In most cases, a permit is not required for a greenhouse on the Sunshine Coast. However, depending on the size, materials, and intended use, a permit may be necessary. Sunshine Coast Carpentry can help determine whether a permit is needed for your custom greenhouse and guide you through the application process if required.

  • Cost depends on many variables including size, shelving and storage choices, flooring type and custom detailing . With this being said, at Sunshine Coast Carpentry, we take pride in sourcing most of our wood from mills, allowing us to bypass unnecessary 3rd party markups and offer you highly competitive pricing. This means you get a stunning, high-quality custom greenhouse at a fair and transparent price.
