So, had a new American Standard (Trane) split system (hybrid) gas heating/AC unit installed early this year. Over at the house this morning and as I pull up to the house, can hear noise from the backyard. Thinking the patio crew is running an air compressor before 8am, I decide to investigate...

So, after much anxiety on my part, I finally placed an order with New Age for their 9 piece Cabinet set , and what they call a project center, but what I'll be using, or at least thing I'll be using for most of my hand tools. Why the 9 piece cabinet set, space considerations originally had me...

Well, new garage doors are in, new garage addition is perfect, where I appear to have run in to an issue is the original, 1967 garage slab coupled with the new 18X8 Coplay, steel, insulated garage door as shown below. Uncertain if the builder or garage door installer is going to deal with this...

Our garage doors (2-8'H 10'W, 1-8'H 18'W) are on order, trying to decide on using a standard drop garage door opener and rail set up, or going high lift rail set up seeing we have 10' (flat) ceiling heights. Wondering if I can still use a standard garage door opener for the high lift, or...

Working on the bump out behind the existing garage that we will be using for a pantry, guest bathroom, mudroom, and hallway to the new 30x50 garage addition. Took some pictures (see garage build thread) late yesterday, and going over them this evening, just noticed the cut outs for the...

So, the start of the new garage is finally happening, 30x50, stick built, twin 10 foot doors. Excavation should have been done as of today, however Duke power and our builder got their signals crossed and the current underground ultilities had not been de-energized as of this AM, have not...

Awaiting approvals by the county for an attached, stick built, 30X50 garage (10 foot ceilings) for the house we are currently remodeling. House already has a small two car garage (16D x 19W converted car port). I'm not planning to build a showplace, nor do I feel the need to keep up with the...
