Hi all, Trying to get heat in my 30x25 with 11' ceiling, LP run. I have seen a few posts on IR and found this one: http://www.northlineexpress.com/item/5MH-F272800/40,000-BTU-Mr.-Heater-Infrared-Radiant-H I like that it is electric independent. Any other recommendations?

Failed for electric inspection...I should have expected as much. The electrician didn't want to run a conduit down to the basement level, and the township wants to have at min. one light inside and out on the back, along with one outlet. You would think for $5500.00 you would see the garage...

Scotty, The best part about it, the overall cost was cheaper then having steel fabricated for a pour and the need for posts in the sub-level. I hear this is becoming a popular method for folks on sloped lots. The process was straight forward and saved a lot of time on the build.

#4 rebar, 2 rows horizontal, and vertical about every 24", I also tapped into the block wall with a few pcs. To keep them together. the builder thought it was overkill.

So the cement is in, and its dry. Now this weekend I will do a little bit of cleanup if we do not get hit with a freak snow storm. The driveway is scheduled for next week. What is a proper pitch for a driveway for good drainage? The guy said 2" every 10', but it will be 8" different from...

For right now it will be storage. My mower, snow blower, tools, etc. In the future I was hoping to set it up as a woodshop. The pics on the forum are giving me great ideas for alternatives. I may live in it after my wife sees the final bill on this thing. :eyecrazy:

After talking it over with my wife we agreed it might be better to just rip up the steps, and extend the wall over to the deck to make that the top step. When the driveway is finished, the entire area will be raised 3" resulting in the existing path/step to be too low. I am using a new way to...

I have been having some issues with the electrician. He said he would be there Saturday, doesn't show up and no call. Then he shows up Monday for about 2 hours mid-day put one length of conduit down and tells my wife he will be back Wednesday to pull the wire. With the weather looking grim I...

He are the latest shots: The new garage doors are in along with the stone: The liftmaster 3800's are being installed now. The siding is complete: The retaining walls are almost done: Another angle: The basement level: The electrician is setting up the box this weekend, and I am...

Siding almost complete. I am getting the corner stone for the front of the garage Thursday and will install it this weekend if the weather permits.

The form is for a retaining wall.(most likely a foot or so shy of the siding) Since the driveway will be repaved to level the area out, I decided to put a a wall in to keep things from eroding. The same stone veneer on the garage will be on this wall. There will be a second wall at the base...

Slow going but, here are the windows. The Siding is on in the back, and part of the opposite side. Here is a rendering of the front elevation change. The builder informed us the brick we have is not enough for the job and he is having trouble matching it. So we are going to try this:

Roofing is done

The garage door will narrow slightly in the corners, but I don't think it will have a major impact for me. The doors are 9X9, and I can easily fit a 763 bobcat and my F350. Thanks for the input on the doors. I will work on it ;-) I should also mention that the garage on the existing house...

vs

My wife and I can not agree on the garage doors. We both like the coachman doors, but she is fine with arched glass with a square frame, where I feel if it is arched, the frame or moulding should also be arched. What do you folks think? The face will be brick, so price will fluctuate with the...

power is still out....but took these and uploaded via phone

The sheathing is done and the roofing is underway. No pics yet, we have been without power for over 24hrs, but will get pics up soon.

I hope all of you in the path of Irene made it through okay. We did okay here. Mostly just debris as we are not in a flood area. We luckily only lost power twice for about 3 hours a pop. Still pretty windy at the moment. No damage on the garage that I can see. We braced just about...

Thanks. We accomplished a great deal today. Plank Work: Framed walls: Trusses on: Sub-level:
