We have an outdoor faucet that runs into our garage. But, once it comes through the garage wall, it makes a quick 90* turn upward about 1.5" from the wall (pictures attached). I need roughly 13-13.5" to make it through the exterior wall and line up with the existing copper pipe. Here is my...

I recently purchased a digital torque wrench with the main use being the degree/angle function. I have a 2022 Silverado and more and more nuts/bolts require additional degrees once the initial torque is reached where my previous truck didn't have any. The u-bolts, tie-rod end, upper ball joint...

Garage Ceiling joists - closing/sealing openings to crawl space We had the interior of the garage extended back into the crawlspace and when they put up the new walls, it left some openings above the new walls at the ceiling joists. I am pretty sure this is where my moisture issues is coming...

I am going to put a dehumidifier in the garage. I want to be able to put it on auto and just let it run when needed and be able to pump the water out so I don't have to always remember to empty the tank. My issue is that I don't have a sink or any sort of floor drain in the garage. I do have...

My truck is about 1" too long for the garage. I like our house but part of me wishes we didn't buy it (the wife loved it and as they say..Happy wife = happy life) but there were too many things we wanted to pass it up. So, now the truck lives outside and with the trees we have, it constantly...

Me and the wife just purchased our first house and I was checking out the garage again and noticed that it looks like they used solid concrete blocks for the foundation. Is this common? The house was build in '96. I'm going to have to make a cutout in the wall in the next few weeks and wondered...

We just bought a house that has a traditional aluminum sectional garage door. My truck is about 1" too long to fit in the garage and it is due to the door. The door will need to be replaced and we are looking at other types of doors. Will a tilt-up/up & over/Canopy type door give me an...

Hey Guys, New guy to the forum here. I'm going to go ahead and apologize for the long post. Me and the wife just bought our first house the other day. The only delimma is the garage. Not the overall size of it, but just the length. The garage is 19x20, which in the area and most newer homes...
