And the only thing I need an electrician for is to attach from source to box, I'll do everything else. The insulation will not be an issue.

Easy guys....yes it's all in conduit and the only wires run at the moment are for the lights on the ceiling and partially for the ceiling fans.

Give you guys an update. I had the whole thing sprayed. I payed for 2 inches on the ceiling and 1.5 on the walls, the guys actually sprayed about 3 on the ceiling and 2.5 on the walls, I'm not complaining. They did a great job, I didn't want it to look like **** so they covered all the places I...

If you sprayed first the wires would be exposed and not covered. Are you saying that in your area every time you run a new wire, switch, outlet whatever that you have it inspected? According to an inspector I asked here, they're just going to be inspecting the main feed from the source to the...

Let me ask you guys this, which comes first, spray foam insulation or running the electrical wires? I've read both in various places. I'm thinking insulation first so my wires are not all covered. I'm putting 2" in the ceiling and 1.5" on the walls (closed cell) so there's still room to run the...

Go for it I'm happy I did. I do wish I'd have made the overhang 25' instead of 20', 4 door F350 with 8' bed doesn't quite fit under but oh well. I like the 4' extensions past the enclosed portion to act as a wind/rain block to.

Washing off the orange Florida dirt road, working outside under the overhang and not being directly in the sun, just hanging out under, that's going to come in very handy indeed.

We did use a magnet and got most of them and I raked all around and got a bunch more but every time I walk around out there I find another one. Not complaining just mentioning.

Thanks, the guys did a good job, a bit of a language barrier and 4 billion screws on the ground, got em picked up but you know there's going to be that one.

That certainly makes more sense to step the slab down but why not just make it the same size. I talked with my installer again today about this and he said absolutely make it the same size unless there's a reason not to. Well my installers finished and are done. Here's some pictures, quite happy...

What they told you doesn't sound right to me so I asked my installer and he said it definitely should be the same size so the sidewalls can extend past the concrete. Mine is going to extend about 2 inches and that makes perfect sense.

They told me to make the slab the same size as the building so the sidewalls hang down over the bottom frame and a little over the concrete. That's what I did. They're actually installing my building as we speak. My concrete extends past the front wall as there's a 20 foot porch on it.

Is there a reason why you only did your roof and not the whole thing? A different question, has anyone hung wall cabinets or anything up? Any issues? Or a suspended shelf of some sort attached to the roof deck frame and walls?

Skipping the bubble wrap is going to happen for me to. It's sounding like spraying it is the way to go. It appears to check all the boxes, but I will say it's NOT 1200 bucks. Of course I'll be doing walls and ceiling. Just spray it and move on right....

I just got off the phone with a spray foam guy and truthfully I like what it offers, 2" on ceiling and 1.5" on walls closed cell. The pros appear to outweigh the cons.

Other then price, what are the pros and cons of spray foam? I can do the foam boards for less then half the cost of spraying it.

To be honest, I'm getting a headache researching all the insulation options. My slab is poured the same size as my building, we'll sort of, my slab is 30x60 and my building is 30x40 enclosed with a 20 foot front porch/overhang. I think I'm leaning towards not getting the wrap (3600 bucks for...

I've read and reread many discussions about using the bubble wrap foil insulation in a carport style building (eversafe). The building is not installed yet and I have the option of having the building wrapped during install or not. I could not have it wrapped and then use 1.5" rigid foam boards...

First time poster. I have a 30x40x12 eversafe building coming soon. I signed my contract end of July, had to get engineered drawings then get permits, have a cement pad poured, after that it was moved to scheduling (8 to 10 weeks) now I'm about a month (or less) from install. So yes 5 month...
