Can someone tell me me about who made this craftsman set? I got a large set back in early 00s.

Ah ok, that makes it much more palletable

I gather that VIM is overpriced ? Also yes, that is a lot of money for something that has so much competition probably coming from the same factory in China

Hey folks, I decided to do this the right and expensive way. Going to have a contractor fix it the expensive way since my garage foundation is a mix of a concrete patio from 1960s and additional slabs poured in the 1980s. Ill have them do the driveway too while they are at it.

Pretty sure it can but there is still that whole problem of slab being lower than the soil around the garage.

Any idea how much would something like this cost? Really rough ballpark on the higher end since this is NY and we have heaving due to winter.

Considering the amount of things that were done the dumb way I am 100% cool with inspections. The oxygen thief that owned this house before diced to put a wood burning stove in the basement and he added a stove to the side of my house. Now keep in mind this isnt Arizona this is swamp land...

Would it be possible to just chip out all the old concrete including the concrete the garage is sitting on and having it re-poured so it sits higher? Or your concrete blocks options is essentially the same solution? Garage is finished on the inside so i dont know the extent of the damage.

Unfortunately the roof is all once piece now.

Hi folks, I am here because of the "joys" of home ownership. I have a 1969 built house. Like all house in my neighborhood the attached garage was added later on. There is a wrong way and a right way to add a garage. Guess which way my garage was done. Any way before the garage was built there...
