Well they installed the wrong garage doors, they don’t look bad, but not the style we ordered. Have to wait a few more weeks now.

Garage is looking real nice!

Good to see another aquarium enthusiast here.

Assuming saltwater, are you going Reeftank and corals or fish only?

***** to find out AFTER they were installed.
Yea, i stoped by after work when they were finishing, and the contractor didnt want to get in their way during the day. Well least the house has doors now till the right ones get here. Dont have to worry about them getting damaged now either.

Pic of how the doors hang from inside. I will probably have them shorten the track as it’s longer than it needs to be as the bulk of the door is where the wall is.

The whole project looks fantastic. Congratulations!

Is there any way you could get me the size and possibly make/model of the two large windows on the back wall? I'm looking for some big windows for my shop.

Thanks,

Ed

Concrete has turned out fantastic.



I'm a bit surprised Dan hasn't chimed in yet, he must be slipping.:bounce:



Thanks! 7fdb74eb232f7700f902a1f45cfcffad.jpg

Didn’t post it, but part of the driveway we had to go over a drainage, so we deceived to make it more of a bridge. Had it stamped with wood planks. Will be eventually stained. Have to get a picture of the full driveway, made it zero entry with no curb.

Here is a shot of the kitchen in case anyone was wondering what other parts of the home look like. Island is 11’x6’.

Not that I don't like that beautiful big garage, but that's a really nice kitchen! Show us more of the house if you wish!

What he said!

Awesome garage. It turned out very nice indeed! I love the fishtank as well. Being a corner unit, it looks very modern.

Did the top coat today. Can’t wait to start moving thing in. Going to give it a week till I park in it.

I put some of the anti slip powder in the top coat, floor is still pretty slippery. Can’t imagine it without it added.

Here are a few pictures of the house to share, have a couple more to share of the custom things we did.

Front entry is a storefront door. 5’ door non pivot. Glass goes to the ceiling at 15’. Wired in a commercial lock with keypad entry. Zero entry so there are no steps.

df45f803112b797ba28f7841d2bc979e.jpg

Back patio slider, 24’ total length. Patio part of the roofline, with built in infrared heaters.

eea7f7d65e6dfe3d66390022e52a2534.jpg

Master tub, inset with rocks. Custom hardwood soffit with laminar flow filler from the ceiling. (Chandelier still to be installed)

f2859cd6506970baa323095614107b7b.jpg

I built this vanity with a live slab of black walnut I bought in the rough. Sanded/cut/cleared. Built a custom bracket to hold it also.

Put down some carpet tiles in the garage office. Was impressed how easy these are to install.

Got the two 4 post lifts out of storage today over to the house. Going to start assembling them tomorrow. Wow these things are heavy, how does everyone manage to put these together.

Added 2’x12’ pallet racking to make use of the tall space without taking up too much space.

Still have a ton of cleanup to do.

Hauled the tool box home finally also.
