    How to protect lp prostruct flooring?

    I recently had an 8x10 shed built with lp prostruct flooring. I'm using the shed to store lawn equipment and anything else that may track in dirt or oil. Is there a particular way to protect this type of floor or make it easier to clean? Perhaps Vinyl mats or a polyurethane coating would suffice?

    Spray foam insulation or spray fiberglass

    Let me make sure I understand this correctly. If I use closed cell, I can leave everything like it is as long as they don't seal everything off. If I use open cell, I have to seal everything off? I don't have any reason to make the attic a conditioned space. I'm just looking at my options to...

    Garage Door Insulation – Hinge Bolts in the Way?

    I’m finally getting around to insulating my garage door with rigid foam board, but I’ve run into an issue I haven’t seen mentioned anywhere. Some of the panels have hinge bolts sticking out, and they’re in the way of the insulation sitting flush. I’ve done a fair bit of research and watched a...
