So what would you recommend to use as a vapor barrier before insulation goes up. Garage has been built for 3 years so no way I can get paper outside of the purlins between wall and them.

Insulating my pole barn soon, and wondering is it ok to use housewrap on the walls before I put the insulation up as the vapor/condensation barrier? Something along the lines of tyvek would make quick work of doing this.

I would like to insulate my garage that I had built a few years back, and after getting a few local quotes I reached out to the builder of my garage For insulating and doing walls in a 30x40 here is what they proposed: R-30 insulation for ceiling-$1,300 R-19 insulation and metal for...

I read blown in insulation for the ceiling.... but is there any moisture barrier above that for condensation dripping off the roof?

Walmart Online has the Edsal 72"H x 72"W x 24"D Steel Welded Storage Rack on sale right now for $99 each. I got one of these for Christmas and they are the same as the ones sold at Costco. http://www.walmart.com/ip/Edsal-72-H-x-72-W-x-24-D-Steel-Welded-Storage-Rack-Black/21685759

4' on center, and I did put furring strips up.... I didnt want the OSB to sag over time. No Vapor barrier at this time... I may add it when I lay some insulation up there. I believe it is 3/8.

Here is the lighting setup.... http://www.garagejournal.com/forum/showpost.php?p=4930848&postcount=49

Very nice building Shadyluke! I plan to coat my floors in the spring, had my slab poured this summer..... going to let it go through a freeze cycle before I do anything to it. Here was my summer project. Just go the lift in last week. I had Platonic Solid on here design me a lighting schematic...

^ How do you recommend prepping the slab before hand? I actually have a brand new slab, and it is not sealed. It however is still dusty. Reminds me when I touch it of running your hand across a chalkboard. I had a local garage coating place, tell me that just sealing the floor, with a clear...

only bad thing about this lift, it is stationary when in the air.... would need to bring all the way down to move it.

I am hanging my ceiling in my garage as well as lighting this weekend and ran across a Bil Jax Workforce XLT 1571 personell lift on craigslist for $1000. Would it be a good idea to purchase this, and just sell it after I am done? My alternative was to just get up on a ladder, with a friend on...

XPR-9 to 21791 or to nearby freight terminal.

Hi All, I have a pole building going in over the next two days..... What is typical tipping practices for these crews? Seems to be a very good Amish crew working on the building. Thanks!
