First Tunnels Polytunnels have created this site to share our vast construction knowledge and expertise with the online garden Polytunnel community. You will discover all things Polytunnel related, where anyone from a first time Polytunnel grower to a hardened professional, can download FREE detailed construction guides and find out the techniques, tips and advice we have picked up over the last 20 years.
Use the left hand navigation menu to download our comprehensive construction guides for Polytunnels and Fruit Cages and easy to follow instructions for installing First Tunnels irrigation systems.
To help our customers we have produced FREE, detailed downloadable construction guides for all the First Tunnels products, covering everything from the initial setting out to ensuring the tension on your polythene cover is drum tight.
We haven’t stopped there, we know many people build their polytunnels at the weekend or over a bank holiday when our office is closed, so we have also produced a series of ‘handy-cam ‘ polytunnel construction videos. This collection of videos can be viewed anytime, on your home computer, and even your phone for when you are in the thick of things constructing your polytunnel. We’ve also set up a Construction Helpline specifically for weekends. This allows you to talk directly to a constructor, ask their expert opinion, get the answers and complete your polytunnel.
