ddawg, that road is my neighbor's driveway so unfortunately no I can't access through there. I have considered pulling the driveway across the front of the house, but would prefer not to one for looks and two as the driveway would be going over the septic line from the house to the tank. I...

Ak Jim, how did you tie it into the existing walls? Drill and dowel? I would just be concerned about heave and effecting the existing foundation or my new slab. In my area they will require insulation under the entire slab. There are inspections, but the inspector doesn't know where the septic...

Hey forAK, I have thought about attaching it directly to the house, but as you may be able to see in some of those pictures there is a bumpout with and overhang and stairs going into the basement. While it would be nice on one hand, I would need to provide structural/architectural plans for the...

As promised, Location B pics. This is the tandem garage. The face of the garage and doors would be about midway though the white SUV, or about 10 feet off the face of the house. Hopefully these shine a little more light on what we're looking to do to help with input. -Matt :beer:

Hey folks, here are some picture of Garage Location A and I will post some for Location B shortly once I have them resized!

Thanks nadofail! Anywhere near Santa Maria by chance? Hey Pelican, that sounds about right. And if you got lucky, you had to use your defrosters AND your AC in your car in the same day LOL Thanks Blake! Thank you fellow new yorker! Hey thanks Odd-job! I'm very familiar with both, if...

3onthetree, are you the reviewing engineer I just sent some plans over to this morning as well? LOL. The pictures will help to answer a lot of your questions if I can get home before dark to take some. Here is a significantly revised drawing printed in color that should answer a lot of your...

Hey there 89efhatch. Another upstater here, in the Albany area. Looking forward to seeing your thread. Is the 89 hatch a Mustang?

Good afternoon all. New to the forum, but been reading a while. I'm hoping to break ground on a new garage this spring. I've been wrenching on my own cars since I was 15 but have never had a garage to do it in, so it's about time! I'll be as brief as possible with the details and have...

Thanks timboy! I'm an upstater as well. Just east of albany across the river.

Thank you for the welcome! Look forward to getting to know everyone better. Pelican I see your jersey shore so I know where that is. Bluesboy are you up state or down state?

This thing looks like a slick alternative to a post style. Do you mind if I ask the cost of the unit itself shipped to you? Then did you install or have your contractor do it? Thanks! -Matt :beer:

Hey everyone, glad to be here. Been reading for a bit and gleaning some great information from you all. Looking to break ground on our garage this spring so I'll be posting in the general forum in the next couple days with my lot layout and proposed garage footprint. It's gonna be tight...
