Periodic Maintenance
Extend the lifespan of your glasshouse with expert care
At Smiemans Projecten, we know how important reliable operation and long-term performance are for your glass construction. Whether it’s a garden centre, botanical glasshouse or public facility. Our periodic maintenance services ensure that every moving part, gutter, and technical system continues to function flawlessly, year after year.
Preventive servicing for lasting quality
Regular servicing is the best way to prevent malfunctions and costly repairs. By cleaning, checking, adjusting, and lubricating all mechanical parts, we keep your installation performing at its best.
Typical maintenance tasks include:
-
Inspection and lubrication of ventilation and screen systems
-
Checking and servicing of motors, gears and drive units
-
Roof and gutter cleaning, including removal of blockages
-
Replacement of worn seals and re-application of joint sealant
-
Visual inspection of the structure and drainage system
This preventive approach extends the lifespan of your glasshouse, reduces energy loss, and keeps your building safe and functional in every season.
Safe work in public and operational buildings
Many of our projects remain open during service activities; from garden centres and research facilities to botanical glasshouses.
Our team applies strict safety measures and detailed planning to ensure visitors, staff and students can continue their activities without disruption.
With temporary scaffolding, clear communication and flexible scheduling, maintenance can be carried out efficiently and safely, even in public environments.
Flexible service contracts
We offer flexible, tailor-made maintenance contracts — often once a year, at a time that suits your business operations.
Each contract includes:
-
Scheduled inspections and reports
-
Fast response for urgent repairs
-
Access to original parts and materials
-
Predictable costs through fixed annual rates
Many renowned projects such as RHS Garden Wisley, Van Hage Garden Centre, and Goethe University’s Campus Riedberg benefit from our long-term service partnerships. Their glasshouses still perform like new, even after more than a decade of continuous use.
Service is standard
Of course you can count on extensive service and a long-term guarantee ... one phone call is enough. Do you want to be assured of the longest possible lifespan of your glasshouse and installations? Then a service contract with annual inspections and (preventive) maintenance offers a solution.
Preventive and proper maintenance
Maintenance, especially of moving parts, continues the service life and keeps installations intact for longer. Checking, cleaning, adjusting, greasing or replacing is always important with screen and air motors, ventilation mechanisms, condensation gutters and all other technical installations.
Guarantee
Besides the good guarantee we give you on our products, we can also supply materials after many years. We assist with questions or offer assistance if necessary. Good maintenance extends the life of the entire project.
