need more garage inside height ...

[jbdaya]

I have a little question for you !!!

I bought a used paint booth 24 feet long and 14 feet wide and 9 feet high .... my garage now has a 8.5 feet high inside. I should change my trust design in the interior or rise my garage of 4 feet (more $$)?

Have you ever do this kind of change?

What type of construction is the building?

I was wondering the same thing cyamaha2007 was, but also, what are you planning on doing in your garage? And are you wanting to put a lift in?

Yep and a location would help deciding what type of building is allowed.

It' a wood construction .... and i planning to put a used paint booth in it. My height is 8.5 feet . The dimension of my used paint shop is 9 or 10 feet heigt, 28 feet long and 14 feet wide. The plans is open the roof inside (change the trust design) or lift the entire garage of 3 or 4 feet (it's the most expensive option ..i think)

I'm from quebec canada..

Someone attemps to do something like this in yours garage ??

Just one question.....are you putting this in for a commercial booth as a business? Maybe things are different up north, but down out way, it cost big dollars to start up a painting business with all of the regulations that one has to follow.

I have a buddy that has a hell of business. He got divorced and his wife got the house and shop. He looked into starting up another business, but by the time he pulled permits, got the booth, hazmat expenditures, insurance, and so on, he told me it was too expensive to start, soooo maybe a little gets done in his garage but I didn't say that. He said to legitimately start up a new business, he was looking at $250,000 out of the gate.

If you are doing it yourself and the roof is in good condition id lift the entire structure off its foundation then run a few courses of cinder block then set it back down.
