The beautifully constructed 10x8 Vale Greenhouse from Forest combines practicality and style to create a fully functional traditional timber greenhouse that will become a real centrepiece of any garden. It’s beautifully proportioned and spacious, every detail of this building has been thought through to give you an exquisite building that will be a haven for any gardener. The elegant timber structure features thick framing and 12mm Tongue & Groove cladding making it an extremely strong and durable building. The timber used has been slow grown, kiln-dried then pressure treated to give it an impressive 15-year guarantee against rot and fungal decay. It has also been smooth-planed to give the building a high-quality finish. The glass used for this greenhouse is 4mm toughened safety glass, which reduces the risk of breakages and provides more internal light than Perspex. To ensure that the greenhouse is properly ventilated, the roof is fitted with two opening windows that have an automatic vent; this auto-vent will regulate the temperature and keep air circulating efficiently. The 10x8 Vale Greenhouse has two full-width spans of potting shelves down one side so you can keep all of your plants in the sunlight, and give them the attention they need without creating a mess. For easy access with wheelbarrows or when your hands are full this large structure comes with double doors. To top it off this greenhouse comes with free delivery and installation all included in the price, so you don’t need to worry about a thing - except what you are going to plant first. The greenhouse is hand-built to order in the UK. Features and Benefits Spacious - A beautifully crafted spacious 10x8 timber greenhouse, designed to create optimum growing conditions.

We are sorry but Forest Garden do not deliver or offer an assembly service to the following Postal Codes: BT1-BT99, GY1-GY9, HS1-HS9, IM1-IM9, IV41-IV56, JE1-JE5, KA27-KA28, KW15-KW17, PO30-PO41, PO49, TR21-TR25. Installation Process We also offer an installation service on selected products. So, if you’d rather take a back seat when it comes to building, don’t worry. Our assembly service means your new purchase is in safe hands and you can leave all the hard work and heavy lifting to us. After you have booked in your delivery, you will be contacted separately to arrange a suitable installation date. This will usually be carried out by our own expert fitting team. However, depending on your location or purchase, we may use a third-party company. Some products, such as the Vale Greenhouses, Gazebos and Retreat Sheds, offer installation on the same day as delivery. For most products, however, delivery and installation will be arranged separately. Installation is typically within 7-10 days of delivery, however at certain times of the season and depending on postcode this can increase to 3-4 weeks, please check with your retailer when ordering. Upon delivery of your product, it is important to check all parts and sections to ensure everything is present. If there are any shortages or damaged parts, please contact us and we will ensure the required parts are supplied before the installation team arrive. If a job is aborted because the item has not been checked there will be a further charge to rebook. Ideally, store the product as close to the assembly location as possible with the sections laid flat and cover the roof and floor sheets where practical. We do offer the service of installing in your absence as long as you have side access. We do need written consent and clear instructions on the position of the shed. On the day of Installation please ensure: - There is a suitable solid level base prepared before the installers arrive on the day. If you require advice on building a base, please see our base preparation letter for guidance. Should the job be aborted due to an unsuitable base, there is likely to be a revisit charge. - The area for the build is unobstructed. The installation team require at least 18 inches around the whole building. Therefore, please ensure there are no obstacles that may hinder the installation such as other garden buildings, fish ponds or structures. Please make sure all vegetation is cut back prior to the installers arriving to allow for a successful build. Also, please make sure the garden is free of any trip hazards such as children’s toys, tools, etc. We also ask that any pet waste has been cleared from the garden. - You have requested permission from your neighbours for our assembly team’s access if required. - There is suitable access to the installation site without having to enter your property. We are not insured to carry items through your property. If you do not have suitable access then you will have to arrange for the items to be moved to the site of installation prior to the fitters arriving. - There are adequate parking facilities for the assembly team’s vehicle and any necessary parking permits have been secured. - There is access to power at the site (our installation teams carry extension cables). - There is someone at the property for the entire time of the installation. This is particularly important so the installers can check you are happy with the siting of the product prior to the commencement of installation, and for the installers to familiarise you with your new building after the build is complete.
