Conversion of barn to garage

Conversion of barn to garage in CZ

Hi all from east Europe, here is my little project .... revamped an old barn 33x20 feet in a garage for one car and a little space to move and work around the car.

I apologize for my English.

This was the barn before starting

I started with demolition

new roof

so, the car is safe under the roof

everything I teach, I do everything for the first time, just me and helped my father

The exterior is finished ... next time I will share the ongoing work in the interior

 

[James-W]

I like it! Good job. I also like the wishing well, did you build it?

 

[Sunbimmer]

Wow man extreme job, very well done
Welcome to GJ and yes please keep us updated on the interior.
BTW nothing wrong with your English

 

[charleyw]

Nice work!

 

[roger440]

Nice work there. Really quite a transformation.

 

[Bull]

That looks great. Your property and the view behind your house also look great. We love international projects here, so please stick around. Your English is fine.

I spent some time in Prague and Cesky Krumlov on an amazing trip with my family in the summer of 2001. Your country is beautiful.

 

[fflintstone]

nice

 

[mattyschopshop]

this was very nice work cant wait to see more

 

[romko]

Many thanks for the praise, the more I will enjoy further work on the garage.

 

[Kevin54]

Wow. I'm amazed at the transformation. I sure didn't expect it to look like that. Do you have the inside done yet? If so, post up some pictures of the inside.

 

[romko]

thank you, thank you,

the interior is currently working on, a photo of the beginning

procedure

and current status

will follow plaster, white acrylic paint on the ceiling, painting, folding stairs to the attic, a work desk (8 feet) with cabinets, lighting, and perhaps something to the floor ... I would like to race deck or something similar

 

[LutzTD]

nice work, very good looking. your garage and yard has travelled forward in time from being stuck in the turn of the 20th century to the 21st century

 

[kelzamos]

Darn nice work!

 

[BSAschields]

That is fantastic..... I like the new finish on the outside. I may have chosen to keep the old brick look on the inside myself but I like what you have done.

 

[bbarbulo]

that looks like some solid construction! nicely done

 

[romko]

Thank you men

That is fantastic..... I like the new finish on the outside. I may have chosen to keep the old brick look on the inside myself but I like what you have done.

original brick style I also like, but it was impossible to repair the wall, so that it looked nice, so I chose the path of sticking polystyrene 100 mm, for comparison and pulled plaster structured grain size 1.5 mm, in the interior of the structure of 0.5 mm

 

[Mr. Tool]

Dude, that is simply "AWESOME"!

Continue to share and post pictures!

 

[1/2 Cup]

keep up the good work!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Nighttrain]

A lot of work there. Great job.

 

[FoMoCoPower]

Your english is better then most people I know.

 

[romko]

and an update ... I was inspired by the colors here on the forum

 

[Lobstrosity]

Very good job! The colors look great, I might have to paint my garage the same!

I really like the brick floor you have in your garage, I would keep that instead of covering it with anything, if it were mine.

 

[WarrenJ]

A great transformation. What's behind the red doors on the left wall (small cabinets?)

 

[rydeshed]

That is very cool. I love the hand washing area. I (my wife) wish I had one of those!

I thought it was going to look great with the bricks showing on the inside, but you have really taken it over the top with what you have done.

 

[chenthu]

What a transformation! Great job!

 

[ishiboo]

Simply amazing! It looks fantastic. I did not think such a structure could look so good ever again

 

[upndown]

Beautiful job!! I really like you're workbench..I do have to ask, What is that framework above and at the end of your garage door horizontal tracks? never seen that before.

 

[romko]

Děkuji všem

These are the cases, both sides recessed in the wall, the actual depth is 16'' ... sticking out of the wall 2''

About translator problem, but I do not know what you mean

 

[Bib Overalls]

I think he was talking about this. American garage door tracks do not have this cross piece.

 

[KoJo]

Amazing work! Love how it turned out!

 

[CNGsaves]

Terrific transformation . . . . excellent work !!

Curious what country in Europe as looks like you have mild climate?? With the water in garage, do you have heater so that it does not freeze??

Also, how thick are walls?? No insulation right, just brick and stucco concrete??

 

[romko]

Oh, I'm not sure, but probably some patent manufacturer to strengthen the structure against lateral variations

 

[dubber]

This is really exceptional. I honestly wasn't expecting much based on the title hahaha.

 

[honda-boy]

Love the transformation man

And really good idea of building the cabinets in to the wall, save much space.

Greetings from Czech Republic. Weather here is not very mild, and winter lasts six months, usually frost.

insulated polystyrene is 4''. The walls are of different widths 10'' - 17''

Water for the winter in the garage stops, the water heater I ready for installation.

It is true that the name is not very imaginative, I've thought about it, yet I can not think of anything.

I was thinking more the concept, i had envisioned someone cleaning out the horse stalls and putting in some shelving and a garage door. You went above and beyond!

 

[ARbuilder223]

coming out good!

 

[Just in Time]

That looks amazing!
