Thanks Kevin, I just wanted to make sure I wasn't over simplifying it. About your issue, I also have a slight variance between the two floors. However they are only off by about 1/4-1/2 inch at most. I will probably have a slight slope as well. After the patch, I am diamond grinding, so I'm...

The pictures below show what I am dealing with. The previous owner built a second bay onto the garage but left the center wall (:confused:). I removed the wall and would like to fill in the trench. It measures 3 1/2" wide, 19 ft long, ~5" deep, and is directly on top of the old exterior...

Not normally. Probably a space heater a few times per winter if I need to get a project done.

Hey guys. Been lurking for the past year and finally joined. Justed finished a home renovation and will now start working on my attached garage. Anyway, I have a question about insulating the wall between my garage and house. I removed a fireplace and moved a door last spring, framed, and...
