    The Garage Pit

    Unless you have unlimited funds to throw at such a project, as has already been discussed, building codes make construction of a pit almost cost prohibitive. There are stringent electrical, ventilation and drainage requirements. Far cheaper to go with a lift; even a very, very expensive one!

    Seeking garage door engine exhaust vent

    Add on or tear it down and start over.

    I was in a very similar situation. However, my 2-car garage was built in 1948. It took me 3 contractors to find someone who would do it my way. My way was take off roof, remove one side wall, add bay with scissor trusses for lift, reroof entire structure and then reside entire structure. Did...
