In the fall of 2024, after years of becoming increasingly leaky, the glass roof of the greenhouse was replaced with a twin wall polycarbonate roof. It took two months, not counting the years I spent figuring out how to actually do it (and wishing it were possible to keep the glass roof). <\/p>\n

The caulk and butyl tape that kept the glass panes of the original roof in place made the roof difficult to maintain. The panes would slip a quarter of an inch, an inch, or a foot, leaving gaps for rain to pour into the greenhouse. To fix one slipped pane required unsealing and resealing not just one pane but between two and eight panes. One would think that if they are slipping it would be easy to get them off to reseal, but NO, that was not the case. While the caulk and butyl tape did lose their sealing powers after a few decades, it was only in a few spots. The rest of the caulk and tape stuck so well to the wood and glass that it was very hard to move the glass without breaking it. I decided that the only way to keep the greenhouse functional and prevent it from falling apart was to get rid of the glass roof.<\/p>\n

Twin wall polycarbonate panels are used often on greenhouses now. They do not require caulk and are long-lasting. (Too long, if you don’t want to be contributing to the world’s microplastic problem.) The trick for me was figuring out how exactly to cut the polycarbonate panels for my particular roof that had specifically been made to hold glass panes and that had two different slopes and also six large, openable windows.<\/p>\n

The good news is that once the glass, caulk, and butyl tape were removed, the rest of the roof — the wood frame — was in nearly perfect condition and very sturdy. I’m sure the frame breathed a sigh of relief to have the much lighter-weight polycarbonate on it instead of the heavier glass panes. <\/p>\n

During most rains now, there are no leaks at all inside the greenhouse. It’s completely dry! During very heavy rains with wind, a small amount of water splashes into the greenhouse in a few places, not enough to be a problem. It is a greenhouse after all — I splash more water around when I water my plants.<\/p>\n

Here are photos from the roof work:<\/p>\n

Greenhouse roof in 2014, freshly painted. Unfortunately in the subsequent 10 years, the paint and wood condition deteriorated with age and weather. Worse, many of the glass panes slipped, causing leaks everywhere inside the greenhouse when it rained. <\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t<\/div>\n\n<\/div>

Two strips of wood on the upper slope removed. The glass panes are still well-seated in butyl tape and caulk. Most of the time it was a struggle to get them out -- but much easier if you didn't mind if they broke during the process. Only 20% of the panes came off unbroken.<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t<\/div>\n\n<\/div>
