    Expanding garage vs tear down and rebuild

    Its a tough call, i had to leave mine and expand but i didnt go wider so that was helpful but everything needed to be straightened out to match new construction which probably took as long as rebuilding. I wasnt allowed to tear down without more permits and bs so that why i did. Might save a...

    From looking at the pictures above could anyone be able to tell me where the best place would be for the heater? The gas line enters between the overhead and man. door at front of garage. Was thinking of a ceiling mounted heater. Thanks all!

    Thanks to the weather and a small electric heater I was able to get garage around 70 degrees to start getting some paint on the walls. Its amazing how much brighter the work space gets with a little paint.

    Good info thanks, figured above 50 should be good for a day or two. The garage is sealed very well and reached 60 the other day with just that small kerosene heater going for a few hours. No money for the gas heater this year, but next year it will be up.
