Has anyone heard of/used Sani-Tred? https://sanitred.com/garage-floor-coating-resurfacing/ Looks like nice stuff, but pretty darn pricy, and you apply it yuorself, ultiple stages of course. Got a quote for a garage just under 1500 sq ft and it was around $6700

hell yeah! What species did you use? any thoughts on vertical vs horizontal? I take it your were just working with random lengths....?

Howdy all, I did a search and a few responses came on a thread in 2022, but nothing more recently (that I have found). Has anyone lined all or a good portion of their interior walls with planks/other wood options? If so, how's it working out? Please share your photos for ideas! Thanks in advance

All good points dcg9381. GC does have a big advantage here if he is doing other concrete work. I do see that the plans had footer and GC wants to do insulated monolithic slab. I would assume footers cost much more... It is quite rocky soil. I did clear the space of trees last year but it still...

This is the only one. We are working with the same guy to build a house in addition to this, which is A LOT. I hate to go with someone else but I feel like I am getting a little bit fleeced with this

that's what I thought!!

Okay, newbie here. I realize prices have soared since Covid, and I should brace for sticker shock. I received an estimate for a garage (mainly to be used as a woodshop) I will detail below, nothing super special here. It is a 40x24, plans are attached here. Thoughts and advice would help. I have...

You might have a good point here. I was thinking of just heating the space with a larger minisplit rather than slab radiant with propane boiler. Only thing we'll be using propane for otherwise will be generator and stove. Maybe I could run a line for hot water over to the garage from the house...

any photos from the project? what insulation did you use?

Definitely not running boiler hot water to the garage from the house!!

We are building a 24 x 40 stand alone garage about 150 or so feet from the house in the Catskills in NY. The plan is to have a combi boiler for hot water and slab heat. Does anyone have advice or experience with this? Things that have worked for you for insulation of slab or that you would have...

Nice build!!Love the Cattle dog corgi too, what a nice little pup. Why did you go with ICF rather than stick build the whole thing?

I am very open to having different dimensions to having a easier building to build. Do you have any examples of this or where I could see what others have done?

After a preliminary search on here I haven't found much info. Do people have recommendations on good quality boxes for in floor (indoor...embedded in concrete) and outdoor electric boxes for standard plug ins? We had a project a couple years back and the electrician installed very low quality...

Understood! Thanks for the budget info here guys. I just don't know what prices are these days. I will be doing the majority of interior work myself as we have some maple that we cut down and will be used as siding or interior paneling.

Hello everyone, we are building a new house with a detached garage that will be located about 200 or so feet from one another, will be in the Catskill mountains in NY. The primary use of the garage will be a wood shop, but I would also like a section where I can hoist up cars/motorcycles and...

Newbie here, thanks for a chance to join and the chance to ask questions and get information on a new build we have coming up. I look forward to the garage camaraderie!!
