In regards to the OPs question. The technology of both is ever evolving. The differences are many but here is the highlights. Bulbs are cheaper but that's about it for benefits. Bulbs have a much shorter life expectancy, less light dispersion and they are less efficient in terms of lumens...

I'd love a chance at a set. Count me in as well.

Love it! Just simply Amazing work. Be Proud.

Grout damage I could live with. Replacing an entire row of tile would be harder to stomach. I've seen snowmobiles with brand new carbides cut grooves in concrete 3/16" deep. I know porcelain is pretty hard though. Thanks for the opinions guys.

Considering tile in my garage now. Dakota you and Jack have inspired me. My concern is how they will hold up to snowmobiles going in and out. Specifically the carbides on the ski's gouging or scratching. Does anyone have any experience with this scenario? If it's been covered already I...

-18 outside. Of course your basement and everything else will freeze. It's only a matter of time. I know you know that (tdkkart) but some of the people on here don't seem to understand that temperature range. OP: In floor heat is great but it's not cheap. Yes insulate the slab. Yes you can...

When I built my garage I bought all my foam from my local lumber yard. I priced it at Menards and Home Depot only to find out it was about the same price locally. I do get Contractor price however so that helped but the big savings came in the free delivery. I did haul some myself but the...

Any place with lots of heavy trucks or heavy equipment. Think excavators, septic pumpers/installers, concrete ready mix, large landscape companies, gravel pits, logging companies, municipal (town) road crews, asphalt pavers, crane companies,etc....

Perimeter insulation first. To keep the cold from coming in not the heat from going out. Either route you take after that it will be worth it.

I'm not trying to judge anyone here but generally speaking if you can afford Lista cabinets you could also afford to hire someone to weld you a table to your specs. Just a thought.

I'm new here and have a new shop, well almost. Hope this works.

We (general contractor) give our old shingles to one of our flooring installers. He uses them as shims when doing hardware or laminate flooring. I know that our roofers take their tear-off shingles to a recycler that turns them into asphalt. Just another option.

Thank You all! I knew there had to be a simple explanation. I'll proceed with the concrete as planned. :bowdown:

I know I'm new here (for posting, long time reader) but I could use some input. I'm in the process of a new garage build. I'm a couple weeks away from pouring concrete and I had planned to pitch/slope the floor. I'd like 4" of pitch to the center of the heated half (30x30). My problem is...

As long as your garage is built correctly it can be moved. It will take a great deal of work though. It will also require some tools and materials the average home owner doesn't have. As far as connecting it to your house you will need to check with a local building inspector first. The...
