Comments (7)I have a DreamHouse. I would not recommend them. The first year was wonderful (2005 spring/summer). It was stored clean and dry in a dry barn until spring 2006. At that point the zippers were a bear and it was very hard to set up. And once it was up we had a late spring snow of 1 inch and all the poles (fiberglass, I think) shattered! Jim Landon at flowerhouse said they'd send redesigned replacement poles; I got the impression I was not the only person who had problems with them. They took over 2 months and many emails and phone calls to arrive, so I missed the early growing season. The new poles did not quite fit, being slightly bigger that the old ones. The extra strain pulled apart the stitching around the doors. The netting in the windows also started dissolving. Jim recommended duct taping in more screening, but that did not help with the doors. I contacted him again at the end of summer since it was still under warranty. He said they would replace or repair it and to ship it back. With the cheapest shipper we could find, it still cost almost $200.00 to ship back, almost the price of a new greenhouse. Then my emails went unanswered for weeks. Strangely, I mentioned the situation in my blog 2 weeks ago and in less than a week got notification that they were sending something. They did send a brand new dreamhouse, I will give them that. But with construction that fell apart after only one year and the way the company dragged its feet about everything under warranty, I certainly would not recommend the dreamhouse by flowerhouse....See MoreHelp with getting an estate greenhouse built with large budget
Comments (6)Texas Greenhouse Company builds greenhouses all over the country and they are fabulous. After they built my paltry little 20k house their next project was in chicago and it was a 300k commercial greenhouse job. They did a beautiful job on mine for all that it was so insignificant compared to other jobs they do and I have been extremely happy with the workmanship, the professionalism of the builders, and the followup calls from the company....See MoreBuilding a large greenhouse
