This is a good book. Does provide a step by step introduction to how to build things kzbin.infoUgkxhgbP-6hUnXu_QRaoHgLztgsI0YF3HqR0 , also does offer some steps. Includes pictures to give you ideas for layouts and such. If you are looking for a guide, this is not exactly what you want. But if you are trying to familiarize yourself with the way that pole barn building and other out buildings, are made, then this will work just as you need it to. A few things in this book are a barn (of course), detached garage, storage building, and coops.

@billprinty36979 ай бұрын
@ryanncushway8384 I think I got a quote from a contractor for 30000 that's why I tried to do it myself and I think my total cost was 9000 if I remember correctly. This is back in year 2000. basically demoed a 2 car garage and Just had to do some minor grading behind the garage, form it up and I had the contractor place the concrete. Cause I had a full-time job at the time.. I just remember I measured 2 sides of the garage and assumed the contractor for the original foundation and floor in a rectangle he didn't. It was 4 inches out of rectangle so when I place the walls right alongside the edge of the concrete. By the time I got up to the roof I realized I was 4 inches out of square. I took a little bit of work to finish the roof but I suppose, it was still the best way to do. It looks good around the bottom. You can't tell at the top. I did a good job sealing and insulating everywhere, so I know when it was 20° outside, the hot dog heater would only run for 5 minutes per hour and would maintain a 65° inside very efficient. 2 man doors 2 garage doors.. Then I expanded the driveway myself. I got the tow behind concrete trailer about six yards three trips. Fun times.

At 40 years old, I strive for him to see my achievements and recognize them. I am very heavy on the diy approach. Learned a lot myself. To this day, even trying to offer my step father driving directions that avoid major highways or congestion is received with a brush off. He knows better. I’m a father now, and I always stop when my kids come up and say can I try. Could be screwing something in, could be mowing or even using the blower. It all matters to them. They move on quickly so no matter how much of a hurry you think you are in, stop. Let them get involved.

Great project thanks for sharing and providing costs. I love the siding approach, it looks simple and clean. I think you should read some of the other comments below to snure your dad's safety and that roof stay on the garage! Adding some additional collar ties (we normally go in 1/3 of the way up from the top plate - but if your snow load is low you might just add them at every rafter (same height you already did), hurricane clips are definitely needed,. The gable end comment below can be handled simply when building- as you use the plywood to connect between the two - 4x8 sheets installed vertically. at this time you could fix this easily by installing plywood on the inside between the 8' wall and the gable end . No building inspections for this project? this is where the building inspections could have provided some value to you, to actually help you as you go! Also no electricity? maybe not given the distance from the house. But if I were budgeting, I would add the cost of electricity. thanks for the great video!

I saw the shop around 2010 after my grandmothers funeral where the family gathered for the will reading. It looked great and no problems. What it cost? I have no idea. It was something my dad and uncle worked out, I was just a teenager then. Otherwise we did mostly what you did here.

It always surprises me that people don’t think to build lofts over new garages like this especially in the south where there are no basements. It’s the perfect place to put boxes, seasonal items, extra storage, small workshop, extra tools, etc. Heck some folks turn them into studio apartments or in-law sweets. But the main benefit is the extra storage so that you can actually use the garage for cars not extra stuff. It’s not really all that much more expensive to add a higher pitch to the gables to create that space and create the loft space. Other than that very nice build.

I know why you subbed that siding out. That Hardie 4x8 siding is HEAVY. Nice looking garage. Looks like you extended the slab out beyond the building. What is going to prevent water from running under the walls, in a blowing rain? I would have liked to see monolithic slab incorporating a perimeter curb, except for the garage door opening, so water can’t get under the walls. My garage has that, but the separate shed does not, and is built with concrete at the same level as the floor plate. Water runs under the concrete and gets inside. I see the plate at the same level, and the siding extended all the way down to the concrete at the drive way too. Your plate is going to soak up water on all four sides, and the concrete will be wet inside. Maybe I’m not seeing something here. In my area, we also require a double bottom plate, at least four inches above any surrounding concrete, such as extended slabs, driveways and walk ways. A concrete curb will provide for that.

Are they making OSB better than they used to? I'm seeing people use it for exterior sheathing and even as roof sheathing which boggles my mind. I'd spend the extra few bucks and use plywood so it lasts.

How about the cost of the slab?
@ckreinberg304311 ай бұрын
Did you do any static calculations for your project? What thickness is the concrete foundation ? What are the expected snow loads in your region? I am watching from germany and i am looking for some ideas for my garage project.

Me and my brother in-law built a 24x30 x10 tall wall. the only work we paid for was the concrete. Once we had it all roughed in and roofed and windows and doors in. I finished the siding my self. And wired and dry walled . I used pole barn siding for the ceiling . Which worked well as it is allready painted and is lighter then dry wall. Great job guys

How much did it cost?
@robertwoodward4525 Жыл бұрын
@@taylorbirkey6304 it was 25 years ago I bought a garage kit from a lumber yard $6500. I think with footing and concrete I had about $9500. In to it. Not counting the interior walls and ceiling and electrical. I think the grand total was about 12000.00 that included a 18 x 25 concrete driveway . Check your local lumber yard for garage kits as they include every thing you need for the building.

Cool video! I learned something today. Any thoughts/words of wisdom on renovating a beat up detached garage?

Shouldn't the OSB sheathing completely cover the upper corners of the garage door rough opening with a single piece in each corner to protect the opening from racking in high winds?

You mentioned on the siding the difference between material and labor, but not on the other two trades. Can you break that down?
