I am getting to the end of my 28x36 garage build. Hanging lights this weekend hopefully, then on to the floors. I am thinking of using the U140 by CoverShield product, as I like the original concrete look, and I did not want to spend a lot of money on my floor. I want it a little glossy vs...

Thanks Platonic, I would not have thought about ordering from their site. They offered free shipping as well, and 10 % off, which is a nice savings if you are ordering a few .

Hanging my light fixtures tomorrow, and am getting ready to purchase bulbs. I found these on amazon and was wondering if anyone has tried them, or has any thing bad to say about the specs? The price is right. Thanks https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B077YV5J51/?tag=atomicindus08-20

Make sure and install a large 100 amp panel with more than enough breaker spacers. I installed a 12/24 panel, and when I was finished I used every spot. Before I put in drywall, I took that panel out and installed a 24/48 panel for anything that may arise. I already added more breakers. I put...

Without a doubt, have the same contractor do both. I built a home about 2.5 years ago. I am just finishing a garage that I started awhile back. 28x36 inside. The only thing that I did not participate in was the concrete and drywall. I did a stem wall and slab vs monolithic, it also has scissor...

Thanks for the replies. I had planned on using the bulbs that platronic had posted. Greentek Energy Systems GT-T8-18W1200 BIXX(5000K). It just looks like alot of lights for that area to me.

I am in the process of completing my shop, in phoenix. I do hvac for a living. Not that means anything. I chose to put heat pump system in instead of mini splits. I did not want to deal with cleaning the coils of a mini split when they get dirty. I also chose a 3.5 ton for a 28x36 shop. The a/c...

I was also wondering if my layout was close to right.

I am building a 28x36 shop with 2 10 ft wide bays and a 12 ft wide work area, 28 deep. After looking and reading on here, as there were lots of shops comparable, I decided on 13 8ft 4 bulb fixtures only from home depot, as they appear just as cheap as ordering them online. As far as placement...

I can not offer you any pics, cus mine is not built yet. My inside dimensions are 28 x 36, 10 ft ceiling, with the trusses 28 ft long. 2 10' wide door openings on the 36' ft side. The rest for work space. 4/12 pitch with scissor trusses on the first 14', not in the center. My thought is I could...

Looking forward to more pics. I to am just starting footings. The rain keeps getting in the way though. TTmotorsports, I am using "Lone Mountain Concrete", located in north phoenix. They did my house and also doing my garage. 3 pour, and a good price I thought.

It quickly evaporates. Refrigeration system has be really clean.

In my trade, we use a refrigerant flush for flushing out oil out of copper line. Maybe search for "refrigerant flushing agent".

Thanks for the responses, my slab will be 12 inches above grade, so kind of easy to go either way. OSB for the walls. As long as I epoxy/paint floor to make clean up easier, I think it will be okay. Just looking for any other cons to doing it this way. Pressure washing the floor is one I had not...

I am doing a new garage build, 28 x 36, stick built, and trying to decide whether or not to make the garage floor level with stem walls or have the floor depressed a couple of inches. need to decide by the end of the week. Flat is my decision at the moment The floor will be flat, not sloped. The...

Sounds like I need to speak to a few more door companies.

I just spoke with framer and he said we could make the studs 10 ft tall instead of the normal 116" 5/8. That would get me where I need to be if needed.

I am in the process of building a new garage. 28 x 36. the roof is 4/12 pitch with 10' 1" ceilings. I am using scissor trusses at one of the garage doors. The footings are being poured this week. The doors are specked to be 10 wide by 9 ft tall each. I chose 9 ft tall as I wanted to go as tall...
