I can't believe it's been over a year since I last posted. I am doing little things now as I try and finish the garage for some more professional photos. Today I installed a new 400cfm air cleaner. Basically in Canada, they are all the same: Wen, PowerFist by Princess Auto, King and others are...

Well it's nearly been a year since I started. Got back onto finishing the garage lately. The lacquered MDF panel and Audi Sport signage is now up. Left to do: - Track light above sign panel - Philip Hue LED light around lacquered sign panel - Metal corner guards on all exterior drywall...

I put one up at a time. The first one was the hardest. Once one is up you can boot cabinet to cabinet to take the support of the new one as you fasten it to the wall

Been a busy month, little time to work on garage. Finally got the middle piece of plywood for my french cleats done. Then took time to figure out how I wanted to hang/store 3 bikes. Decided on the Feedback Sports Velo Hinged Bike Hook (link below). Made french cleats that hang down from my...

If the entire garage was that and I was doing intricate work I would agree and would not use that colour. This is more of a storage garage with the odd work being done and the dark colour is only on one wall and only behind small areas of light wood panels.

While I didn't buy from Dittle, but since this a Newage Thread I thought I would post. Quality on the BOld 3.0 for me right now sits at a 7/10. Ordered 2 sets of Bold 3.0 5-piece sets from Costco. Of the 6 boxes for the 2 sets, they were all pretty damaged. Upon setting up 2 weeks ago almost...

So the garage was on hold for the past 1 1/2 weeks as I travelled for work. Took back the damaged Newage cabinets to Costco for a full refund and ordered a new set online. Well came back from my conference last night and the new Newage cabinets from Costco came!!! Yay, or not? Well got them...

I may let them know they either a) should package better or b) advise UPS.

Perhaps it’s because it was Costco. But Costco said it was shipped directly from Newage’s warehouse. Kinda sucked because it pushes back completion. Oh well. Overall happy with the Bold 3.0 so far.

Looks great!! Question if anyone has had damage withhow Newage packs and ships their cabinets. 100% of mine were damaged via UPS. Feel like they should be packaged better. I got an extra discount from Costco to keep half the order where damage is concealed. But half has to be returned and...

Thanks! I did a ton of research and met some local concrete guys. Went with ESS Canada (Engineered Surface Systems) I felt they had the best grip on the repairs and coatings. They do flooring for Costco, Joey’s Restaurants and more). They are not one of these 1 day garage guys. Total of 5...

LINK TO PROGRESS VIDEO: https://vimeo.com/273155178 For 9 hours with my father-in-law and an addition 2 hours on my own, we got trim 30% of the installed and all the front panels cut, installed, routered etc. Got the Newage Cabinets from Costco unpacked with BIG DISAPPOINTMENTS due to...

I'm in Edmonton, we get a **** ton of snow, probably more than you. Also Edmonton started to use salt slurry for ice melt. So when I decided to reno my garage, I honestly looked at floor tiles, and felt it was best and easier to spend a bit more and get an epoxy/polyurea hybrid floor system. I...

TGIF GJ friends. Today's update, flooring is 100% done, amazing job by ESS Canada on the concrete repairs and new floor coating. I take responsibility for not confirming one detail on the stairs so the side of the stringer wasn't done. But I think I can hide it once I get my new railing in...

Primer and flakes went down today. A couple of photos of the progress as of 2pm. PROGRESS PICS AS OF 2PM:
