How much does a polytunnel cost?

I'm after a decent sized polytunnel for growing veg at home, say 3m by 6m. is it worth paying someone to put it up or is it a two person DIY job?

"Hi, a 3m x 6m polytunnel is definitely something we can put up for you. We wouldn’t supply the polytunnel itself, but if you purchase one you like, we can install it for you.

For a 3m x 6m tunnel, I’d be looking at around £400 for the installation, depending on the ground and exactly what’s involved. That would be for putting the frame up, securing it and fitting the cover.

If you send me the link or details of the one you’re looking at, I can have a look and confirm the price for you. 👍"
