    Painting Walls

    My bottom four feet of the garage wall is concrete block. I had a basement once that has a real shiny very hard paint on it that filled in the pores very well but I do not know what type of paint it was. It was as hard as a rock, very slick finish (still a bit rough like the block surface) and...

    Finished my garage, now trying to make everything fit

    Yeah, the loft is 8X20 and has a good amount of storage room, plus it is easy to store extra wood and such in the trusses from there. I built the loft to hang from the trusses so I can still drive my truck under it without a problem in case I ever needed to. I may close it in just for looks...

    Finished my garage, now trying to make everything fit

    The space is the only draw back. I just put things in front of it that have wheels on them so I can move things out of the way when I want to use the door. The door is insulated and actually the garage stays surprisingly warm when compared to the outside temperature. It was recently down in...

    Attaching a garage - breezeway or no?

    I had to attach my garage due to deed restrictions. My original garage man door was on the side so I put a breezeway over to what is actually a detached garage with a walk way thru to the back yard. This is all I have for pictures

    People with 4 post lifts...how high is your door?

    I have 4 feet of block wall at the bottom of my garage. I did this for two reasons. I could use the building plans for a standard 8 foot garage but by putting them on the top of a 4 foot block wall, I got 12 feet of interior roof height. The second reason is so when I wash the garage floor with...
