I have a M12 Milwaukee that works well for most things up to 2 1/4” #8 screws. Larger than that I go with the M18 1/4” impact.

How a ground/polished slab turns out, is entirely dependent how the slab was poured and finished. Also, sometimes the grout will etch the concrete, and the old grount lines will show on the polished slab. I put up a steel building on an old loading dock a few years ago. We ground and polished...

If they used a wet diamind saw, the black stuff is dark grey slurry. Let everything cure, then dig it out and seal joint.

To me, an end wrench is a like a spud wrench without the taper. The wrench part of an end wrench is offset from the axis of the handle.

Not sure the type of foam.

I fully agree with this. A few years ago I did a large shopping mall renovation. In one area, three tenants were relocated. In the old spaces two had batt insulation on the exterior walls, and everything was in good shape. The tenant in the thrid space had used spray foam, every steel stud was...

I’d say a dozer or skid steer with a 6 way blade for that type of work.

The Skil 77 is still a bombproof saw. The rest of the Skil/Skilsaw line has been **** for years.

Be aware the HITZ 3/4" will need a 7/8" diameter hole size. Hilti epoxy systems, IMO, are great.

A little spendy, but pretty cool tool.

In general, I-joists are not very good at supporting point loads; which is why most floor designs have LVL's or Microlams for point loads. Maybe a floor jack for the lawnmower.

I've never used Quickcrete Re-cap, but I've used a lot of other Quickcrete products; and they're all pretty good. You could install a metal grating, that wouldn't freeze on top. Epoxy maybe? Check with manf for compatability with ice melt. There are some concrete slip resistent coating...

Beaware that where you see the leak inside, is not nessecarily where it's leaking. It could leaking quite a bit above where it drips, and running down top of truss etc... However the loose screws are a good indication of the issue. I would reccomend getting a slightly longer and larger screw to...

Follow the instructions for the bonding agent you are using.

The wall needs to be plumbed, lined, and sheathed; before trusses.

I have a pretty good selection of Milwaukee tools, and I'm a big fan. I like all of them except the 3" cut-off tool. I bought one for work, it sucked. Very under powerd, even with largest M12 battery. Other tools are much better.

For the OP’s sake, hopefully I’m wrong. All my building experience in the Pacific Northwest, and I’ve build hundreds of houses, none of which have foundations under the garage door openings. Regional thing I guess.
