Greenhouse relocation/glass removal question

[fossyant]

oh dear!

Another though, if you just want to level it, and not actually re-locate it, could you use a large crowbar/lever to raise the "down" end, a little at a time, placing packing after each "lift". I managed to do that with a wooden garden shed (7*5).

I may take a look at lifting it, but I suspect any flex will shatter the glass. Got the task of clearing it out first !

You definitely need to take out the glass. Good gloves needed.

That’s not going to be an easy job. Don’t envy you at all.

Wrap it tightly in a roll of shrink wrap - the stuff used to wrap boxes on pallets - and jack up using wedges under long boards, so you are lifting a long length at one time. If you can keep the frame from twisting, and keep it rigid, you should be able to get it level without a mishap.
With it wrapped, there will be no flying shards should it all go wrong, and it will be in one place for shovelling into the skip

Just make sure you change all of your PIN numbers before you start.

I managed to take mine apart completely and only lost 4 sheets of glass. Bit of a bugger but 2 trips in my estate car of the time and reassembled.
