Our History

BC Greenhouse Builders Ltd. was incorporated in 1951. Henry Heinen, a long time company employee since 1959, purchased the company in 1972 along with his wife, Greta. With Henry’s expertise in design and manufacturing, he endeavoured to create the highest quality greenhouses.

We have put together a video history of BC Greenhouse Builders, click here to view.

What sets BC Greenhouse Builders apart is the high engineering standards we use to provide structural strength in the greenhouse design. This structural strength is ideal for hanging baskets, lighting and shelving. The BC Greenhouse structure is further unique because of its modular and adaptable design along with the highest capacity for wind and snow load.

Today, this family owned and operated business still maintains the high quality standards that were set more than 55 years ago and offers a wide variety of hobby greenhouses, custom and commercial greenhouses, and spectacular Garden Rooms.

BC Greenhouse Builders is proud to support outstanding organizations that actively work to assist those in need. Listed below are the following organizations, we feel, make a big difference not only locally but across the world as well.
