We've got an old wooden greenhouse which is need of a bit of TLC.


I have a 35 year old Alton cederwood greenhouse, over the years have
tried most ways of replacing cracked or missing panes, gaffer tape
kept cracked panes in place for years. Finally decided that I needed
to replace one of the large 4 by 2 panes (and accident with a ladder
,,,, oopsie!)
B&Q sell Perspex panels for about £15, they can be drilled, so broken
glass removed, bead of silicon on top of the wooden frame, having
drilled holes in the Perspex, that is then placed on top of silicon
bead, and screwed into place with half a dozen small screws, Job
completed in less than an hour., Looks ok ish, but its waterproof and
has survived the last three years
