I went through this process 2 years ago to build my 24x25 attached garage. There is an unused road next to my house so technically I am a corner lot and have 25' setbacks to each of the streets. My garage comes within 10.5' of the unused street. The process probably varies a lot state to...

In northern MA built a 24x25 with a 12x12 breezeway to connect to the house last year. All stick other than the foundation, fully finished, insulated, and painted. Fairly extensive electrical requirements. Bid was $89k and the final cost was closer to $100k between some extras I added and...

Sherwin-Williams SW 7651, Front Porch. The window trims are gloss white which will give you some comparison as to the level of grey.

Construction is just finishing up on my 24x25 garage right now, here is a list of things I did and things I wish I had done. + I did 12.5' ceilings to fit a lift if I decide to go with one later. + 240v outlets in place for a welder and compressor. + 2 hose bibs in the garage for car detailing...

Re: Review my plan for a small 3 car garage - Boston MA I'm also in the Boston area. Finishing up construction on a 24 wide x 25 deep 2 car garage which was all I could possibly fit on my 1/4 acre lot. It's not even done and I'm already wishing it was larger; I feel like 28x28 would be a lot...

1000 times this. My 24x25 is just about finished (had to get a variance to even build this so it's as big as it can possibly be). Haven't even put a second car in it yet and I'm already wishing it was bigger.

Quick guide for 8500w claims 1.5 amps.

In my personal case I didn't know about any of the issues when I had the 8500's included in the builder's quote. I was not a member here at the time and my initial searches didn't show much in the way of problems. I "upgraded" to 8500w's just before the actual install in the hope that it would...

Assuming you are talking about the wired controllers, I had 2 8500w's installed in my still under construction garage. One of the wired control units failed (blank display buttons do nothing) in less than a week. Still waiting on a replacement.

I'm in the middle of a 24x25 garage + 6x12 breezway build right now. The framers generated about 2 trash barrels of waste wood. The siding guys were worse around 3 barrels of waste. The stairs generated another barrel or so of waste, mostly from all the 45 cuts.
