    Input Needed - Garage Layout

    I agree on the plethora of garage doors making the property look like a warehouse of some kind. Given what you've said, I would put the building close with a covered breezeway between that would double as parking for the trailer/camper/boat. That way, it would be behind a gate of some sort and...

    Input Needed - Garage Layout

    Is the current garage part of the overall plan for the 'flow' of this shop or is it just going to be a totally separate area? I ask because I'd try to tie the two together with the existing probably being for daily drivers but I would have that service door open right to a breezeway that enters...

    Input Needed - Garage Layout

    I think we need a little more info on what you are going for in the end here. Completely detached from the home or semi-attached with a breezeway to make it one 'structure'? Doors on the front like the existing garage or side to disguise it? Does that service door I can see in your pic go...

    Squirrel/Chipmunks in the shed

    If we don't have them yet, I'm sure there are people letting them out of their cages in South Florida as we speak.

    Squirrel/Chipmunks in the shed

    I used to have up and down years with the squirrels. A couple of red-tailed hawks have taken up residence and have been practicing 'ethnic cleansing' ever since. :ROFLMAO:

    Squirrel/Chipmunks in the shed

    I live in the country so I prefer the versatility of a .22LR. I can see the attraction of an air gun but my issue with those is they often wound the animal rather than kill it. I prefer to minimize suffering where possible.

    Squirrel/Chipmunks in the shed

    Who relocates squirrels!? Pests need to be treated as such. I'm all about harmony with nature. I have lots of flowers for the bees, lots of trees for the birds and generally leave half an acre of my property semi-wild for the critters. As soon as they start destroying my ****, it is game on.

    garage storage 40 x 60? How many normal sized cars?

    No matter how you slice it, entering from the 40' side is going to be a hindrance to getting max cars in the building. Is there any possibility to having entrances on both the 40' (for daily use as you said it would be easier) and the 60' for occasional use? Probably not practical from a lot...

    garage storage 40 x 60? How many normal sized cars?

    10 comfortably if you want access to be able to jump in a drive one with maybe moving one out of the way first, depending on if the doors are on the 60' side or 40' side of course. 12 if you want to pack them tight to where you can barely open doors. It all depends on your intended use.

    May actually build my dream...

    That price is so low that I would almost be suspicious.

    Above 1200 Sq/FT Car show at garage condos

    These garage condos are like country clubs for petrol heads. It's as much about the cars as it is about the socialization with folks that have common interests. I think it goes without saying that there are high dollar cars at a place like that. It's the remote locations, layers of security...

    Feedback on layout for inside of new garage

    I don't know how many cars you want to fit in there but all those cabinets on the right side pretty much render that a single car garage. If those Husky cabs are 24" deep, you'll never fit two cars given that lift. If that is all you need, go for it but I would've moved the lift over in that...

    Older floor tile identification please.

    My guess is if you take them out, hit them with some degreaser and powerwash them, they'll look like 90% new.

    Older floor tile identification please.

    I promise you there is no asbestos in those tiles. Why are you so intent on figuring out exactly the brand of the tile? They look like they've been down there since Clinton was President and you aren't going to get replacements or any trim pieces at this point. Either clean it up and get more...

    Planning attached garage, I'd like some input

    No matter how big you build it, it will seem tiny once all those vehicles are in there. My rule of thumb is 12' wide for each space if we're talking about small, sporty type cars and 14' if we're talking big SUVs or pickups. I'd try to go a couple of feet wider if I were spending the money...

    How to waterproof my garage?

    I think he is using 'garage' and 'shed' interchangeably here.
