Glasshouse Refurbishment Project Completed

We recently completed a full refurbishment project on an existing glasshouse, helping restore both its appearance and functionality without the need for a full replacement for Loughborough University.

The works included:
✔️ Internal and external non-chemical pressure wash cleaning
✔️ Replacement of broken and cracked glass panes
✔️ Repairs to failed wall blocks
✔️ Repositioning and refixing bowed side cills
✔️ Full adjustment and restoration of the existing vent gear

The transformation was incredible, with improved light levels, restored ventilation, enhanced structural stability, and a much cleaner, safer growing environment overall.

Refurbishment projects like this are a fantastic way to extend the life of an existing glasshouse while improving both performance and appearance.

*Vacancy - Glasshouse Technician - Immediate Start, Full Time, Permanent*

We’re on the lookout for a Glasshouse Technician to join our small but hardworking team due to upcoming contracts. We don't need qualifications as there are no qualifications for what we do. We just need someone reliable, punctual, hard working, safety conscious, switched on and able to do the job. We can teach everything else.
What we DO need from you:

✅ A clean driving licence. You'll get one of our company vehicles to use while working, so this is important.
✅ Willingness to complete a DBS check (as we work on schools, prisons and other secure sites).
✅ A good, keen work ethic, punctuality, and a can-do attitude! We don't need much else - we can teach you what we need.
✅ We work away in the UK sometimes, so you'd need to be able to commit to being away from home Monday to Friday some weeks. Notice would be provided and we offer a small bonus for each day you work away, we cover your meals and decent accommodation (no Premier Inns or B&B's) and you'll always have your own room.
✅ Be under no illusion - what we do is NOT easy. It's hard graft in all weathers. You'll need to be physically fit, able to lift and manoeuvre panes of glass, tin sheets and be able to be up and down ladders.
✅ A CSCS card is preferred, but if we think you're the right fit for us, we will help you get one.

What we offer:
💷 Hourly rate dependent on age & experience but will exceed National Minimum Wage, with regular pay reviews on completion of probationary period.
🎓 Investment in your future with training opportunities including IPAF, Health & Safety, PASMA, Fork Lift, and potentially more depending on business needs.
🌤️ Work that’s outdoors, active, and varied – if sitting behind a desk isn’t your thing, this might be the job for you.
✅ All PPE and company uniform provided.
👴 Company pension scheme
🚐 A company vehicle to use during working hours.

How to apply:
We keep things simple. Either send your CV or call to arrange an informal chat.

A proud handover captured.

Our Managing Director, Lyndon Helm, recently handed over one of our latest completed projects to Richard Bennetto, Breeding Department Operations Manager at David Austin Roses 🌹

It’s always rewarding to see a project through from start to finish, and even more so when we can deliver a solution that supports such a renowned and respected grower.

A big thank you to the team involved in bringing this project together, and to David Austin Roses for trusting us with their glasshouses.

Project Complete – Glasshouse Roof Transformation

We’re really pleased to share the results of this recent project, where we transformed an existing garden centre glasshouse into a stronger, more practical, and future-ready space.

https://commercialglasshousecontracts.co.uk/project/e-smith-and-son-re-roof/

The brief was to replace the original glass roof with a more robust, weather-resistant system, while still maintaining plenty of natural light and enhancing the overall structure.

✅ The existing glass roof was replaced with 40mm Kingspan composite panels
✅ We designed and manufactured a bespoke ridge adaptation system ensured a seamless finish
✅ Roof lights were installed to maximise natural light
✅ Gable ends were clad in 40mm Quadcore (Goosewing Grey) for a clean, modern look

We also carried out additional works to strengthen and extend the structure:

🔧 Installed a galvanised box section to the polytunnel gable end
🔧 Created a lean-to extension using composite panels, complete with roof lights

The result is a durable, light-filled and highly functional space, perfectly suited to the client’s needs, with the flexibility for future use.

A great example of how thoughtful design and quality materials can completely transform an existing structure.
