    My single carport to 2-car garage transformation.

    I keep some pieces of aluminum at each corner to keep the window from opening . But if someone really wants to get in they can just smash the glass I guess

    My single carport to 2-car garage transformation.

    So it's been a while since I posted, not much has changed but I did trade the cobra for a more family friendly car. Projects for this summer will be more lighting. And I'm unhappy with the clear floor sealant. It's yellowing, and peeling too. I'd debating between a nice bright red, or the...

    oversized 2 car or 3 Car Garage?

    Go as big and as deep as you can afford and fit. I was limited with my side yard ordinance , and of course money. But extra space will never hurt if you can afford it .

    Tankless Water Heaters - Pros/Cons

    Yes I had a rinnai but not a hybrid, the hybrid is great . the small storage tanks makes all the difference, the rinnai hybrid is really the best you can get with a tankless . But the cost kills it for me, you could buy 5 regular nat gas water heaters for the cost of it. A lot to consider
