Nor Eastah' Checkin' in

I was looking for some ideas for a mud room between my newly built 28X30 garage and the the house when I stumbled onto this forum. Spent the better part of the morning checking it out so I figured I would join.

Welcome. I love Maine, but the areas I know are the touristy areas that you regulars probably find annoying (Ogunquit, Saco etc.)

The garage looks great. I like the stonework around the doors. It looks like a large space, too. Seems larger than 28x30, but maybe it's just especially tall?

What do you work on in there?

Welcome aboard the board. Guess a mud room is a good idea up there!

Bull, getting sheet rock and insulation done on the inside now, the walls are 12' 6' - so i could step up 5' to a platform and walk across the deck, into the house. Also used 12/12 attic trusses, so there is a 14' X 30' room above. I check out the forums before I work, to get ideas like the arched doors and stone... I am really diggin' E-Tek's lift idea, God knows I have the ceilings for it !! NT - yeah, mud rooms (especially this time of year) are one of things you just kinda' need.

Hi and welcome to the GJ.

Thanks Johnny, some great ideas on here, but double-edged. I just saw where someone installed copper airlines into the walls... I am 3/4 done with sheet rock down stairs, wish I had thought of that !! Will install from here on though... This really is a great forum, I will get nothing done today as I have been viewing threads all morning
