The wife overruled that one... The elevation we have for the front of the house has some decorative hips that the Wife can't do without... In order to bring the one car door flush with the two car, we'd ahve to go with a different elevation... Wife wasn't going for it. :lol_hitti

Yeah, I'm pretty happy they are at least looking at a way to make it work. We'll see, I should know in a day or so. :D

:bowdown: Whoa! I would have NEVER thought of all that... :thumbup: I'm sure some of that will have to wait.. :D an OVEN??? Damn that's brilliant. Unfortunately I'm not much of a fabricator or machinist so most of the work I do is wrenching on my car.... However... I'm considering a...

OK update... There was a small problem that may work out to my benefit :D Apparently that wall that separates the two garages was designed to be load bearing.... Luckily, they are willing to re engineer the plans so we will get a full opening. At no cost :D The good news that came from...

Subscribed.. :D After seeing some of the work done here, I may be able to build a few benches and shelves with the scraps left over from the house :D Edit: NOT to say this stuff is scrap... LOL just that I don't need a ton of material to make some sound stuff.. :thumbup:

Amazing... My house could easily fit in there :thumbup:

No reason other than we want to use that space for folding clothes and for our pets, cat food, dog food litter box etc.

That space is the laundry room, But I may be able to enclose the WH on the other side of the back wall of the garage... another question for the builder.. the HVAC is in side the house... I'll ask them again to see if they can put the W/H in that space.... I don't remember ever getting an...

I've got a meeting with the builder tomorrow. So we'll discuss leaving the ceiling unfinished. That way we can possibly do a trey style ceiling using the attic space after we move in.... We'll see. I'll ask again about the water heater but they seemed pretty adamant that it had to be in the...

yeah we talked about the laundry room for the sink.... May need to revisit that idea... the one thing they were very clear about was putting the water heater inside the house.... Maybe if it's tankless thats ok since nothing is under pressure... Hmm.. it seems pretty clear that ceiling...

I agree, I was really disappointed when the builder said the trusses won't accommodate the height I wanted... I think it really came down to they don't want to jump through the hoops to make structural changes like that so they jacked the price up, and only committed to less than a foot of...

yeah I struggled with that one but I don't see how 6" of ceiling height was gonna make much difference... I can't wait to have the extra space. Cool, open floor it is.. we checked and a takless for the whole house is Big coin... and code won't let us put it in the attic... but... I may...

ah gotchya! that makes perfect sense. I'll ask the builder today. Thanks! We went round and round with the builder we finally decided to dig down the garage but that was gonna cost 1500 and they only would get me 6" - 8" of roof height... It just didn't make sense... that's half of what a...

I can ask about extending the one car... never thought of that. the water heater will be Gas, so I'll see if that has any impact on where it can be placed.. And I'll ask about the door... is that just to fit taller vehicles?

That is awesome... can't wait to see where this goes.

We're building a new house with an attached 3 car garage. Below is a pic of the floor plan. I need some help with the layout of some items and ANY advice on the best use of the space... We're early enough that I can tell them where I want certain items placed, like the water heater, Deep...

what a cool garage... Congrats on your first home and well done on the garage. :thumbup:

I've been lurking in this thread for months now. Well done!

whoa! Can't wait to see more.
