Should have said the water main in the wall. I'll try to post a video.

They normally don't finish the garages. Of course I paid to have my garage finished. I think a drywall screw was run into the water main behind the wall on the garage. I also think the city turned on the water to the wrong house. Either way it was gonna leak. Thanks for the great input. I will...

Hello, this may not be about a garage but I have no where else to turn at this time. Our new home being built is on a slab and is weeks away from complete. We went to check it out today and a water main somewhere was broke. The entire main floor had about three inches of standing water. My...

Pretty excited about building a new home. Nothing fancy but have a few questions. It will be a three car garage that is finished with 220. What else should I have the builder do? Also with a brand spanking new concrete floor. What floor should I go with? (epoxy)? Thanks David

I thought about the old falling barn idea.. Might have to do that. Thanks..

Anyone???

My garage isn't finished, so I decided on old barn roofing panels for the walls and ceiling. All Ive found at lowes so far is some cheap aluma-?? Stuff.. Do they still make the old fashion barn corrugated roofing? The kind that rust. Thats what I'm looking for.. Thanks David

Okay, got me some estimates on drywall. Ceiling and one wall has old drywall that has to come out. Material, labor, and demolition is 1500$ Trash dump is 100$.. This is a 20x24 garage will 10ft ceiling.. Is that a good price for drywall? He will paint and hang lights for 500 more clams..

It was where to start. Got some great ideas now. So maybe thats good new today.

Part of the garage seems to be drywalled. It's brown???? Anyway it is drooping on the sides on the ceiling. Is this something that can be fixed when taped and mudded or will it need to be all torn out and started over? I bought the how to book but don't know a damn thing about drywall..

Plainfield indiana. I have a 28' AV 8 and just moved into this small older home. Yeah, I have some old toys, pedal cars and grill shells to start with. Wish I had my old 6' round sinclair sign. Proably get started on the dry wall soon. I think the wife is going to lose the garage. Pair of barber...

My head is spinning for sure now. It's going to be a hot rod garage. I can't wait to get out there with a pad a pencil. Thanks everyone for the ideas.. I will take some pics of before and after..

Drywall or plywood? Thought about doing the ceiling with that steel patio roofing to give it that industrial look. The wiring is done. All the plugs are in place and have the electical hook ups for the welder and air compressor. Didn't think about the airlines.. Thats a good point.. Do I need to...

Good News: I have a nice 20x24 unfinished garage. Bad News: Where in the hell do I start? Any good threads I can search that have small garage pic for ideas? Any help would be appreciated.

Just bought a Eaton 80 gal. 5hp air compressor and was wanting to do some sandblasting. What Im sandblasting is a rusty car frame. Need some advice on what type of sandblaster should I purchase. Thanks for any advise. David
