I bought a place on a lake in NH about two years ago. The house needed a lot of work and after I finished all but the basment it was time to move my attention to the 1970's garage. The previous owners loved to nail stuff to the walls and ceiling. They built all kinds of wood hangers out of any scrap wood the could find. Although it was better then not having a garage, I didn't think it was worth a before picture, nor did I think I would go as far as I have with the remodel.

As you can see I still have a couple more things to finish. After waiting almost two months to get it this far, I couldn't wait any longer to start putting some of my toys in.

Pine ceilings
28 packs of Gladiator Gear wall panels
Lock-tile flooring
2 Jackshaft openers
Azek trim boards painted black
18 six inch recessed lights
26 outlets with diamond plate covers

Just one more reason to wake up every morning and say "I'm so Lucky"

Sorry some of the pictures are small.

Wow. Nice job.

But if you think two months is bad, I have been sitting on my property (with no electricity), since Christmas day 2008! I'm in a very difficult coastal zone in northern California. But, I'm just getting ready to build my shop, and then house. Man, I'm going nuts!

Congrats on a job well done.

What do you have as wainscotting in this pic? The darker gray marble looking wall covering? Also how about some pics of the ceiling? But what you have looks super :thumbup:

I'm glad you guys like how things came out.


Strafford NH Bow Lake but live in MA
Not wainscotting on ceiling it's tounge and groove pine.
The Darker grey was supposed to be black, it's the foundation which looked like **** before we applied a skim coat of cement mixed with a a charcoal dye.

I'll try and get some better pictures this weekend when I go bac up.

Thanks for all the compliments
