Greenhouse: Starting on the Roof

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


My last dedicated greenhouse blog post was something like six weeks ago (“Greenhouse Project: Weather Permitting“), with a couple of progress pictures in other posts since then. 

From “2022 Year in Review

From “Around the Homestead

It’s been slow going because of the weather. Dan wants the framing dry before he puts the windows up. We finally had several rounds of dry sunny days, and he got a start on the roof.

These are more windows he found on craigslist, which are doors, actually. They are different shapes and sizes, which makes it more of a challenge.

But they all have heavy wood frames.

Not an exact fit, which meant a lot of measuring and some trimming.
First roof window in!

A set of four smaller windows was next.

The roof windows aren’t all the same, but we figure as long as they are installed in a symmetrical pattern, it will look fine. Or as my grandmother used to say, no one will notice from a galloping horse!
The roof windows will all still have to be sealed and painted, and I’ve just realized that they’ll all have to be washed periodically too! (Duh! LOL)
More sunny days ahead, so hopefully, I’ll have another progress report soon.

      Starting a greenhouse on the roof is a fascinating idea! However, before venturing into it, it’s crucial to ensure your roof is in excellent condition. I recently had my roof renovated, and during the process, I needed to replace the chimney. It was a wise decision to hire professionals from the Roofing Association as they provided all the necessary information about roofing, chimney replacement, and even solar panels. If you’re considering a rooftop greenhouse, make sure your roof is in top shape!
