    Any guesses on $$ to add 24' to an existing Morton shed?

    Existing Morton building is 30Dx40Wx12H. Looking to add 30Dx24xWx12H (the side with the windows).

    Is this mold on the floor?

    Morton pole shed, that is insulated in the walls (with plastic barrier) and blown in insulation in ceiling. What is the white stuff on the floor and what causes it? The one picture is after I swept. You can see the difference by the track on the snowmobile. Thanks

    Jackshaft Garage Door Opener issue (8500/Prodigy II)

    I have a Raynor Prodigy II (same thing as a Lift master 8500) that is about 7 years old.

Ends up stopping...
