Cost of construction of greenhouse


The cost of designing a greenhouse varies depending on size, choice of materials and specific adaptations. Here is an overview of our basic project costs:

  • Small greenhouse (up to 10 sqm): approx. 5,000 - 10,000 SEK

  • Medium-sized greenhouse (10-30 sqm): approx. SEK 10,000 - 20,000

  • Large greenhouse (over 30 sqm): from SEK 20,000 and up


For an accurate cost estimate, we recommend that you contact us for a free consultation . We discuss your needs and wishes and give you a detailed quote.


Building permit and how it is done

Building a greenhouse may require planning permission, depending on size and location. In general, the following applies:

  • Building permit required:

  • If the greenhouse is larger than 15 sq.m

  • If the greenhouse is to be placed closer than 4.5 meters from the plot boundary

  • If the greenhouse is to be connected to an existing building


This is how the building permit process works:

  1. Contact us: We will help you with advice if you need a building permit and prepare all the necessary documents.

  2. Application: We submit the building permit application to your municipality.

  3. Processing time: It usually takes 4-10 weeks for the municipality to process the application.

  4. Decision: When the decision is ready, construction can begin.

Construction time for greenhouses

The construction time for a greenhouse depends on the scope of the project and weather conditions. Here is a general time frame:

  • Small greenhouse: about 2-4 weeks

  • Medium greenhouse: approx. 4-8 weeks

  • Large greenhouse: approx. 8-12 weeks


From design to finished greenhouse, you can expect a total time of 2-3 months, depending on the complexity of the project and any building permit processes.
