I mean the poly-carbonate type of panelling. Are the continuous clip in strips available from B&Q? Do they come as standard with a B&Q poly carbonate greenhouse?

Should I be looking elsewhere for this type of greenhouse?

I don't know what the B&Q greenhouses are like, you will have to look yourself I guess, but I have tried to indicate the features of polycarbonate that will apply wherever you buy from.

When you install your greenhouse, make sure it is well anchored, as there is no weight from glass remember.

If you are thinking of having a movable one forget it, they are far to flimsy to move often and polys need to be buried in the ground to keep the plastic tight.

When I want to work in bad weather, I use the right clothes, but I have used an old gazebo to keep the ground drier.
