Subscribed. Looking forward to updates.

 

Man at that rate they'll have it finished by the end of the year!

 

some noon updates today:

 

Did I say by the end of the year? Looks like they'll finish next week!

 

 

That is awesome Jean!

Looks like the Health care Bill hasn't put you out of business yet

 

my precious has arrived. My precioussssssss.....

 

Damn, you are building a little house for a garage!

 

Loving it! How much is this running you if you don't mind me asking?

 

I have a very reasonable contractor. His estimate is about $75k for the build including full stucco exterior and metal tile roofing shingles

 

Eclou, this build is really looking amazing, beautiful job all around so far. Keep updating us with pics, I love seeing the progress, great stuff

 

some updates. Long time but much has been accomplished:

all electrical, plumbing (air and water lines) so the insulation and drywall was done




taping and floating the drywall. I'm leaving the surfaces without texture so a longer process for floating is being done. Also, I put up 3 50' air hose reels in the ceiling for easy access




installed #13 8' strips of T8 high output 4 bulb fixtures. This keeps it plenty bright in the garage at any hour. I had the lights wired so I can turn on and off the lights in banks of 3 to allow the option of running only what I need



the exterior 3-part stucco was completed and the metal roof tiles (hail and hurricane proof) are almost done. The metal shingles weigh <20% of what a traditional clay tile weighs, which allows for less stress on the roof

 

That is one sweet garage! Love the stucco and roof!

 

Coming along nice. Great project!

 

great progress, looks excellent, keep updating
