Warm weather makes the plastic more pliable and therefore easier to stretch tightly over the frame.
To ensure rainwater runs directly into the gutter a series of timber battens we used 19mm x 38mm pressure treated battens may be required to close off any gaps between the guttering and the side rail.
They are shaped like a little gutter if you turn them upside down and are much cheaper than commercial polytunnel gutter kits.
The gutter is installed at the top of the straight side of the polytunnel hoop where the curve starts.
Or if you don t have a timber side rail and your polythene is trenched or fixed to a base rail we supply an extruded aluminium backing profile.

Building your own polytunnel from a kit can save you hundreds of pounds in construction costs.
Make sure that you have a drop of an inch or two at the end where the water is going to go so that the guttering can be lined up with it.
Plastic tile trims work really well as flexible gutters that can be taped to the outside of the tunnel.
