Wait, what? I don’t know anything about a Chinese drywall issue. I’m not having drywall, though. Is it real drywall that had an issue? I’m so confused. Lol. Also, I laughed OUT LOUD at your description of running from the stank. 😆😆😆

I’m sorry that I don’t know what any of that means. Lol. I’m pretty sure that there’s not an open space (to the outside) where the roof meets the ceiling if that’s what you’re asking? No water comes in when it rains, and the building will have AC, which would be rather counterproductive if it...

I’m going to try to find out that answer and get back to you. Thanks!

Thanks so much for your input! I had actually been searching for antique barn wood to no avail, but after reading your comment, I am SO relieved that I never found any that was in a large enough quantity for what we needed! Omgosh. I would have died if it stunk like… a barn! Why did I never...

I don’t know the answer about the R-rating, but I will see if I can find out. (Wait, is R-rating the wind level rating? If so, I definitely have that info somewhere. We are in a hurricane prone area, so I paid to have both the building and glass garage door upgraded to make them safe for up to...

Thank you! You’re soooo right. I was so overwhelmed looking at that bare metal building. I’m generally pretty good at interior design, but man, was this project out of my wheelhouse. Lol. I’m so grateful that it’s coming together. I was worried there for a minute. 😆

Thank you! I just had to report back with how it turned out. Your post was very encouraging to me a few months ago, so I just wanted to say thanks!

We have already had the walls and ceilings spray foamed, and the plan is to cover the walls in the front half of the barn (up to about 12 feet) in barn wood, which I’m *thinking* further insulates it (?). On the back bottom half of the barn, where we will actually be using it as a garage and...

Thank you very much! I will take that advice. 🥰 It has certainly been a learning experience, and I had zero knowledge at the beginning, so I’ve just been trying to soak it all up for future reference. I appreciate the support so very much! :)

Ahhhhh, I was not aware of that button! I’m going to find it now. Lol. And thanks for the nice words! :)

Hi! I know it’s been a while, but we got our big glass garage door installed finally, so I wanted to post some photos for you! I love how it turned out. (Excuse the rest of the mess. It’s still a working construction site).

Thank you. We actually already hired a contractor since this post was originally made, and I am happy to report that we are well on our way. I posted an update yesterday at the end of this thread. So excited. :)

Thank you so much! ♥️ It started out a bumpy ride, but I’ve learned SO much from it, and I think we have finally come full circle. I will know better where and how to start next time. Thanks for the encouragement! :)

I’ll let my contractor know that some random big mouth on the internet thinks his interior beams are a “mess”. Nah, I won’t, because he’s been doing work for us for years, and his work is impeccable. I’m not gaslighting anyone into anything. It’s no secret that I started this project backwards...

Thanks. (He’s an a-hole). It’s been a long time since my original post was made, and since then, every issue and question has been resolved. It wasn’t a perfect start, but I love where it’s ended up. Ya live and learn.

I hope everyone is taking notes on how to not act like a jackass, when you don’t know what you’re even talking about. I have a complete plan, including a full budget, AND a contractor IS doing it, so feel to sit down and shut your pie hole. Your bad attitude needs more work than my building...

Hi, everyone! It’s been a while, but we are on our way with this project! We now have the glass garage door installed; the plumbing being installed now (including digging out the concrete to add the plumbing); basic electric has been completed, and the next phase of electric is about to begin...

I sure will! Super excited! ♥️

Thank you so much for the encouragement! I’m sorry that I’m just now seeing these comments. For whatever reason, I stopped getting notifications in my email. 🤔 We now have everything lined up, and we are on our way. I so appreciate the kind comments. :)
