Feel sorry for anyone who might of really went through that, it took a while but I got the wife to let me build a 40x60. She said we'd never need it that big but friends of hers told her that it'll never be too big. Then what do you know we parked her truck behind her transam and she said " boy...

Sorry no pics yet, but my garage is built using 6x6's and I put a 2x10 on the inside of the garage to act as a concrete form, so after it was poured there was the witdh of the 6x6 between the concrete and the outside wall. The spray foam guys just filled in that void with spray foam..

Glad to see someone else is doing there homework, I found a product called crete hete that insulates, acts as a vapor barrier and holds your pex tubing. Its just slightly more than normal insulation but the ease of instilation and not having to use tie straps or mesh makes up the differance. I...

I belong to an asphalt racing team and we have a lady who a couple times a year stops and takes our old tires and cuts the side walls off of them. there around 15 x 83. We give them to her free, it cost us $2.00 to get rid of them so whatever she takes saves us money.

CB structures is based out of PA not sure if they cover your area, i'm in upstate NY, they did mine this summer. Did a great Job, even had a friend stop and look at it and he called them and had them build one for him.

i have 2 acres done and did 6 for my moms and have had no problems. Try contacting invisable fence they use a wire that is specially coated it looks like tv cable. When you have a break or have to just spice two pieces together go get a pump splice kit for wells, there made to be under water.

I've got the same problem, i've got a garage door guy coming to look at mine. This is not an easy problem to fix, i've posted this problem on here and got alot of good advice and unless your willing to undo the springs it's best left to the pros

Spent most of the day in the garage today, started out at 50, turned the natural gas heater up and got it to 65 in about 30 min.

Re: what did you do in your garage today? Started wiring for a 3 way switch and put up 3 new lights, helped the wife with our business.

Great Job. Just picked up a 13 drawer and when the wife lets me I plan on picking up the 54 inch box from Harbor Freight. Then it's my turn to copy both you and Steve.

You might want to look into spray in foam, it seals of all drafts and works as a vapor barrier, a little more pricey, but well worth it.

I must be doing something wrong, i did part of my garage, the back 20x40 and i installed 2 inch crete-heat foam insulation, a little more money but easy to install and the concrete guy said it's the best stuff he's ever worked with, 2 runs of 5/8 by 300 feet, 6 inchs of concrete, a wall mounted...

Ok, I hate to do it, bit I think I hafe to call an expert. I was hoping to get this done for the wife before the snow comes and i didn't make it. So I think I'll put it on the little garage door so she can still get in and out without getting out of the car. Just hate starting from scrach.

Ok, so the door guy isn't coning out, said he put in what he was told too and he did, so now i have a call into the company who sold me the building. Question, can i install a regular door track in place of the low head room track, I still have 12 inches above the track now and if i'm not using...

Thanks for the help guys, I've got the guy who installed it coming back down to take a second look at the door, said he might be able to install a normal track sense i'm using a jack shaft opener, just might lose a little height like John said. I'll update once he shows up, in the mean time...
