After the snow melted away the hole was duct-taped closed temporarily.  We still get some water leakage though&#8230; into a big tray for now.<\/p>\n<p>The plan was to buy the better quality poly that had a better snow load and lifetime warranty (the existing poly has a 5 year warranty and bad snow load properties.  Bad raccoon loading properties too&#8230; the &#038;#^$ raccoons have put big dents in some of the panels).<\/p>\n<p>Then the cost was looked at and another $140-200 was not in the books today so we thought, just buy a single 2&#8217;x8&#8242; panel and install it overtop to existing until after the spring greenhouse season&#8230; and then take another look at replacing all 4 panels.<br \/>\nStopped in to Home Dept and wouldn&#8217;t you know it&#8230; none of the exact type we need in stock.<br \/>\nOh well.. buying yesterday was just to have it on hand when the weather turned nice enough to do the work.
