We had concrete veneer "stone" installed on the exterior of our building as a wainscoting height to dress it up a bit https://i.imgur.com/jzzpEnz.jpg https://i.imgur.com/HVkvboZ.jpg

I just spent the last few weekends framing a 16'x20' office for my Wife. I went with the EcoFoil against the metal on the exterior walls (perforated). Before that went up I plugged the gaps at the metal with steel wool and a shot of spray foam. After that we framed the walls and used R-19 on the...

maybe I missed it, but I'm looking at doing the same thing too for my wife. She'll be getting (2) full height walls as well. I have to do metal ceiling since the trusses are 4' on center. We are going to attach the top plate to the trusses but how do you attach the 2x4's to the metal...

Thanks RougeFab, I appreciate the compliment. My Wife is very good at making things come together like this and look nice. I'm hoping to get the 10' diameter BIG *** FAN up soon!

What are you guys using for insulation and interior walls? I've seen the threads about using the 6" thick R-19 which I like but I didn't konw if there was anything more efficient $-wise. I'm going to lookin into using T1-11 for the walls since it should be cheapre than drywall or plywood. I'm...

Yep, unfortunately those are the items you don't think about when budgeting haha. I'm guessing that was when the HoA had us by the short hairs. Stressful as the building was framed and sitting and we were having our first child at the same time :shocking: Thanks! Thank you!

The office space is going in the front corner where the french doors are. The wife is a traveling saleswoman so she needs a space for her stuff and now that we had a baby, that room turned into a nursery. We do some lite woodworking (amateur) and general storage, parties, vehicle maintenance...

Hello! Long-time lurker, first-time poster! Wanted to share with you guys the photos I remembered to take of my 30' x 44' Pole Building. It's taken longer than it should've but it's really close to the end now. Little backstory: Tons of delays with builder, getting him to come back and finish...

Great write up Git! I'll be doing this soon!

Agreed! I'd show them the bill to stress the importance. Maybe a warning, but they are still in your home!

What kind of unit are we talking about here? furnace with separate coil? Heat pump? etc

Hey Jersey, I'm having a 30'x44'x12' being built now and have been looking into options for insulation and perhaps a ceiling in the building. I saw your photo of the foil between the rafters, can you tell me what that is? Are you planning on putting a ceiling in or just leaving the ceiling...

I just stumbled across this thread, I live in Centreville, I didn't see if you posted where on the Shore you are located, just curious. I'm in the process of having a 30x44 Pole Building built now, supposed to get concrete on Wednesday this week. Regardless, cool looking place, just wanted to...
