    Another Garage Insulation Thread

    I have been on this site for awhile and have read many threads about insulating a garage, but none have given me the answer I'm looking for. First my garage is a 30x50x10 pole shed, metal siding and roof. When it was built I had the double bubble foil insulation installed, would not have been...

    Thoughts on leaving the floor unfinished

    When I had my floor poured alittle over a year ago the contractor suggested a product called Cure & Seal... I'm glad i did it... makes for easy clean up and only added about $85 for the five gallon bucket... My floor is 30x50 and had some left over... You can even get it in a more expensive...

    How to delete a thread

    I would like to delete a thread that I started, but can't seem to figure it out. I thought if I deleted my first post that the whole thread would be gone, but it won't let me, it lets me edit my first post so I just deleted all the words and tried to save it, but it tells me I need at least four...

    Looking for a thread

    Does anyone happen to know the name of the thread where the owner was remolding his business and in his front counter area he painted his walls to look like the outside an old building with a man leaning against the wall, I also remember he had a vintage coke machine in there too....Thanks:headscrat

    Sweeping the floor

    I sweep my 30 x 50 everytime I make a mess, I use a soft bristle shop broom for smooth concrete, and then green sweeping compound with a 36 inch dustmop, I had cure and seal applied when my floor was poured, the sweeping compound leaves a nice clean shiny finish.

    WTB garage sign or cool stuff for the wall

    Good luck on your search for vintage wall art... I too was in the market at one time but the prices of these treasures are more than im willing or able to pay... I fully understand an item is worth what a seller is willing to take and a buyer is willing to pay, but where does it end...

    How much concrete do I need ?

    Here is the formula I have always used... convert everything to inches and then mulitply all three measurements then divide by 45656 118 x 240 x 4=113280 divide by 45656=2.48 yrds. But i agree with the above posts get 3yrds.

    BUDGET garage... help, advice, opinions are welcome!

    I also live in Nebraska...If you are wanting to build a pole building I had a 30x50x10 built last spring by a company from Oklahaoma for $10500 and it took them a total of TWO days... Of course that didn't include any concrete and I had to contract someone else for the overhead doors... but...

    Can Pole Barns be tightly sealed at base?

    I second that....rat guard is the way to go... It's just a piece trim made to cover the open end of the ridges in your metal sheeting... mine came standard no extra charge.
