Ultimate Garage Build for Detailers

The Ultimate Garage Build for Detailers took approximately 2 months to complete. This is my home garage and I wanted to clean it up a bit so I can work and test products in a comfortable space. Checkout how much work was done: Removing lolly columns, sanding floors, painting, taping, sheet rock, electrical, compressor, cabinets, hot water lines, and so on... Hope you enjoy! -L

[@harris8390]

Larry - We spoke on the phone this morning. The garage renovation is spectacular to say the least. It seems you have attention to detail in every aspect of your life... That's hard to find these days. Don't ever lose that quality. Much love, from California.

[@AMMO-NYC]

Thx Harris. Hope I was helpful :)

[@Sahadi420]

If you don't mind, how much did they charge to put in the steel beams??? AKA at about $1600 a pop for fixing your fender when you hit that damn pole...........how many times can I hit it before buying the steel would be cheaper???? LOL Who puts a damn pole in the middle of a garage, right where you open the driver door????

[@tinderinc]

Is the garage not even insulated?

[@igeekone]

Exterior garage walls are almost never insulated. It's not a living space so builders never insulate them.

[@asmo1313]

that`s a really elaborate way to say someone has OCD

[@devilskullBEL]

You're constantly saying'this is like a dream for me' and get somewhat ashamed of getting so excited about something, but is definitely any car enthousiast's garage of dreams right there. You worked long and hard for it and I can only say I hope to achieve something alike some day too. Those lights are incredible, it looks like daytime in there :o

[@AMMO-NYC]

Thank you. I just dont want anything to think I'm not grateful for what Ive been able to achieve...because I am.

[@nmore69]

AMMO NYC are LED shop lights not recommended for detailing ??

[@Aucourant347]

Being en electrician I have been installing lots of LED recently and I would't recommend It for a detailer they're to directional. T8 to Led there is almost no energy savings actually the last fixtures we changed the LED's consumed more then the T8, the led were brighter taught.

[@doseofreality100]

I bought my house pretty much because of the garage. Previous owner was a retired electrician in his late 70s. Every room in the house has a minimum of four 4 receptical outlets... at knee height (handicapped height) so at 33 I'll never have to worry about my back going out getting down on the floor to plug something in. Buy in the garage.... he went nuts. 6 fluorescent light fixtures, 2 ceiling fans, natural gas heater, and those same 4 receptical outlets...... but 4 on each wall spaced about 4-6 feet apart. 2 above the bench alone. That's 8 things I can have plugged in just at my bench. Then there is a 4 receptical outlet on the ceiling to plug in a work light or whatever else you want to plug in on the ceiling. He had a work light which he had attached to a retractable reel extension cord. Point is...... between the house and garage I can probably have 300 things plugged into the wall.... and not need a power strip. I have the power. Top it off..... his son is a plumber and installed pressure assisted toilets. So every time I flush it's like flushing an airplane toilet.

Larry, I'm forever green with envy of your new extremely nice garage/shop area. The floor is amazing, the compressor to die for, and the cabinets and work bench surface are perfect. I can only hope to have a set up like this one day! Cheers from Oklahoma.... enjoy the dream garage!!

[@FoodOnCrack]

9:23 that is some professional bolt rounding right there fellas

[@humzauddin105]

I got super excited once I saw all those products in your storage cabinet

[@LION509]

Awesome seeing how excited you got as you showed it off, especially the cabinet with all your products in it. Congrats on fulfilling your dreams.

[@laslim7388]

im a detailer have been for 22yrs. i thank you for your point of view, you are a great detailer with out a doubt. you know you changed to detailer today. thanks i always clean up after those trailer queen retailers. they needed you bad.

[@techfreshness]

congrats on that garage. freaking awesome. all your products in the cabinet, so great

[@nickberger3655]

My dream garage would have a drain, an integrated high pressure washer, and heat, so I can detail my cars in the winter!

[@moneygeewtee]

Nick, I hear you man, that would be an awesome accessory to have!

[@nickberger3655]

Don't get me wrong, Larry's garage looks awesome! I think if he had more space, he probably would've put a drain in. I'd want a pole barn so that I could have a designated "washing" area so that none of the other vehicles would get wet.

[@sneakysnakepie1]

Nick Berger well if a water line busts or water heater goes big big mess

[@nickberger3655]

Yes, that would be a disaster. It would be best to try and keep the wash area contained (by walls) so that any accidents wouldn't cause much damage, and so that the water would simply run out through the drain. As anyone can tell, something like this would cost a lot of money in the first place.

[@sneakysnakepie1]

Nick Berger might not be a big problem if it's heated and has good insulation. But if leaks or tank rots and makes a hole it will just take 1 time for anything. but it would have been worth it to do before the floor. then they could of fixed cracks then. but I just hope it doesn't. they do make a container that the water tanks sit in bit you have to route the piping outside. and that doesn't cover if a pipe leaks

[@j.s.3414]

The steel beam install made me more excited than it should have...

[@budracing1320]

I was about to invest in a garage, but after watching your video I am going to invest on my home garage to make more space instead. Thank you for making this video. Best of luck in everything you do.

[@Aucourant347]

Really nice garage I'm sure it's going to be fun to work in there. Don't know if you did it but when I install big compressors like that I usually suggest installing an automatic draining valve. It prevents your compressor filling with water and helps the air filter/dryer.

[@BuildThreadsNorway]

Cool to see Matt from Obsessed Garage here. The garage turned out super clean!

[@blueflames722]

CREDIT TO Doseofreality100 as he wrote this in reply to a comment but I felt it needed to be seen! The dude was acting like his flooring was super special. It looks like your run of the mill epoxy or a polyaspartic coating. Only real difference he talked about was instead of acid etching the floor they used diamond grinders to essentially just sand the floor. Online they say for a 2 car garage a professional install of epoxy or polyaspartic coating shouldn't cost much more than $6/sqft. I have a 2.5 car garage like Larry. I don't know his dimensions, but mine are 23 feet and 4.5 inches wide by 27 feet and 3 inches long.... roughly (just measured to get an idea because I am currently looking to fix up my floor and stumbled on this video a few days ago). That's like roughly 640 sqft. Multiply that by 6 and you get $3,840. Let's say he overpaid, or that company overcharged for the "pro" experience of using diamond grinders instead of acid etching. Let's DOUBLE the cost. That's still far less than $10,000. If I had to guess.... $6-8,000 for the flooring. According to Home Advisor, having a steel beam installed costs anywhere between $1,200 and $4,700. HomeAdvisor cost breakdown: -The price of an engineer who views the site and plans to determine the proper size and strength of the metal beams needed, which costs $400-$600, on average for a project -The labor rate of the contractor or contractors who perform the installation, which takes about half a day per beam and costs around $200-$400 for each beam -The cost to deliver the beam and lift it into place (if this is not included in contractor pricing), which can cost from $600-$1,200 for labor and equipment rental per day to lift the beam into place. Not sure if Larry's install is considered 1 or 2 beams..... but let's go with two, just because HomeAdvisor hints at a single beam install taking half a day and Larry here says "at the beginning of the day I had a lally column and at the end of the day it was gone." So I'm taking that as it was a full day of work. So let's go with this being a 2 beam install.... which makes sense. Going on the high end of those HomeAdvisor estimates then that's $600 for a dude to come out and determine what you need. $800 for contractor labor. And then to have the beams delivered and lifted into place - $1200..... having to lift two beams I can't imagine it costing more....... but let's say it does and that costs $2,000 even. That's $3400. Let's DOUBLE that for no reason and that's still only $7,000 just about...... and that's well over HomeAdvisor's estimates.... not sure how accurate those even are. I think shooting $2,300 over their estimate is definitely playing it on the pessimistic side. So likely grossly overestimating the cost of the floor and beam installs that's maybe..... MAYBE $15,000 for both. As for the cabinets..... They don't look overly fancy to me. No better than, say, what NewAge Products offer. He also "only" has 3 lower cabinets, 2 upper, and 2 lockers. Over on NewAge Products' website their top of the line "Pro 3.0" series costs like $4,000-$4,500 for TWICE the amount of lowers, uppers, and lockers. So I'm guessing the cabinets AT MOST cost $5,000..... but more likely around $2-3,000. That major overkill of an air compressor he installed isn't as expensive as I thought it would be either. A quick search online for "Jenny compressors" and I found a site that sells them. The 80 gallon model in which he got costs $2,600. If he paid more.... he bought from the wrong website, haha. The QuickJack model he got costs $1,365. As for the electrical and plumbing work..... I have no clue. Not counting the plumbing and electrical costs..... my likely GROSSLY overestimated cost for this build is about $25,000. Grossly overestimating the little electrical and plumbing work he had done.... let's say $30,000. More conservative estimate. $15-20,000. I forgot what else he installed. I think there was some sort of air filtration system for his compressor. Whatever that costs, through that in there as well. MY estimated total..... $15-20,000..... my OVERESTIMATE $30,000 for everything. And $2600 (not counting tax and shipping) of that is for that massive overkill of a compressor PLUS the filtration system for it. Take that out of the picture and you can lower the total cost by $3-3500 (however much that filtration system cost plus the 2600 bucks $400-$900 seems a safe average to bet hence the $3000-3500 estimate). So sans the overkill air compressor and accessories, that;'s about $27,000 for the rest of the install for an OVERESTIMATE. Searching online and using other more knowledgeable people's/website's estimates and then just doing simple math, conservative estimate sans air compressor+....... $12-17,000. And if you just get a normal garage floor, epoxy installed by pros, the internet says that shouldn't cost more than $6/sqft. This website has a MUCH lower estimate. @t Specifically that website says this: The size of the floor to be finished with epoxy directly affects the overall project cost. The larger the floor, the higher the total cost, but the price per square foot usually drops for larger spaces. NSI Epoxy mostly finishes two- or two-and-a-half-car garages, which are about 400-450 square feet. Here are price examples based on floor condition and size: Fair shape 400- to 450-square-foot garage floor: ~ $3 per square foot = $1,200-$1,350 total Damaged concrete on a 400- to 450-square-foot garage floor: ~ $3.25 per square foot = $1,300-$1462.50 Water-based epoxy that needs to be removed from a 400- to 450-square-foot garage floor: ~ $3.25 per square foot = $1,300-$1462.50 A 400- to 450-square foot garage takes a two-person crew two days to complete. Fair shape 600- to 800-square foot showroom floor: $2.75 per square foot = $1,650-$2,200 Fair shape 10,000-square-foot industrial floor: $1.75 per square foot = $17,500 My first thought on this is.... damn, 2-2.5 car garages are only 400-450 sqft? There is no way in hell my garage can be considered a 3 car garage but it IS at like 630 sqft...... about 23 feet wide and 27 feet long (wider and longer by a few inches). Anyways, the estimate for the 400-450 sqft is only $3/sqft. So for me I can look at about a professional epoxy install setting me back about $1900. $2,000 let's say. So $2,000 for flooring. Over at NewAge Products website I can get their Pro 3.0 series cabinets and lockers for $4500 and get twice the lowers, uppers, and lockers. I don't have any columns to remove in my garage. I don't need nor do I know a single person who needs an 80 gallon air compressor. This dude details cars..... does he use pneumatic polishers? haha. Air drying..... you can do that with a much MUCH smaller compressor. Or an actual, designated air blower that they make and are on the market FOR detailing cars. I'm assuming he does other things other than detailing cars...... he has to for that compressor to make any sense. Bottom line I could probably have a similar looking garage for less than $8,000 for some sick cabinets and excellent flooring. I think people, especially the peanut gallery on social media AKA the comment section, grossly overestimate how much things cost. If you're still reading this. I rewatched the electrical part of the video. He just had electricians essentially install 6 light fixtures and a light switch. Then they ran power for the under cabinet lighting and for the air compressor. The internet says that to have a light fixture installed it will cost between $95 and 250 bucks. To have a light switch installed the average cost (robbery) is $98-193. So just with that let's say each light, which they piggy backed off an existing fixture, they charged $150 (since they did 6) per light. Then let's say they charged $150 for that light switch. I can't imagine the cost being all that steep just to run wire.... but let's say that cost $100. For probably a little over a half day's work I'm guessing..... GUESSING the electrician bill was about $1,200-1,500. Let's assume that was the same for the plumbers. That's $2,400-3,000. That seems VERY high to me to just run a few wires, install a few fixtures, and install some new piping. But we all know.... electricians and plumbers a professional robbers, haha.

Congrats on the new place Larry!! Congrats on a new garagemahal too. Its every guys dream with what you've done to your garage. Also love my new quik jacks. Bought them shortly after seeing them displayed at the National Roadster Show in Pomona last year,they were well worth it for working under my cars.

[@tomkuster7345]

Nice shop! A little tip...if possible, route your air compressor intakes outside - you'd be amazed at the sound level difference!

[@jeffreyhicken]

Mounting outside isn't always possible. Freezing temps, potential CCR's and just annoying your neighbors can force you to keep it inside. As he noted, it's got an 80 gallon tank, his use of pneumatic tools is limited so the compressor kicking on probably doesn't happen often.

Fantastic detailing garage. This is a dream I have, I have a passion for detailing and I’ve started my own car wash at the age of 13, since then I’ve fallen in love with detailing.

[@INNO222]

@0:15 I love the AGIP sign you have up! Excellent clip!

[@JaredVeale]

Would hate to lose a screw on that floor hahaha

[@jmannetje1]

Jared Veale Or one of those tiny C clips

[@Ryan-iw8yw]

I don't see why people use those chips, you can't find sh!t when you drop something. Those floors are for guys who don't really do a lot of significant work on cars. Light gray with no chips 👍🏻

[@jeffk464]

Oh well he is a detailer, not a mechanic. Think about it in the aviation world where every nut, screw, and bolt have to be accounted for.

[@Rhaspun]

At first glance a problem.But I would lay a flashlight on the floor pointed towards a wall instead of pointing it down towards the floor. I've found many things with this technique. Even a contact lens.

[@kentaylor5842]

I did decorative concrete floors for a number of years and they call that a color chip floor and i hate them for that reason, get an epoxy solid light color floor with epoxy sealer and will last years being able to spill even aviation fuel and not hurt it.

I'm sure Matt from Obsessed Garage would like to help you get your garage in the right shape lol

[@martinw3265]

LBigJake14 I would like someone else's opinion but don't you think the flooring he uses is stupid. Can't sweep it, small bits get stuck, can't wash it. Expensive.

[@LBigJake14]

I guess I should've watched the video first lol

[@hustlinharmon]

Martin W It was clear coated

[@Danathor666]

Martin W he clear coated it

[@apsilonblue]

It was sealed with a clear coat which I'm assuming is also a polyaspartic coating like the base coat so it can certainly be swept, washed etc. It's pretty much a commercial grade flooring system so abrasion and chemical resistant as well. Perfect for a garage and I'd certainly love to have a set up like this.

[@SeppDelaney9]

Great job, Larry. I’m impressed. I’m proud of people who realize their dreams. Good on you!

Awesome video. Question, I noticed you stored your products out there, but do you keep them out there even when the temps start dropping? I was wondering if it was ok to keep cleaning products out there in the temp swings, is it ok as long as they don't freeze, or should they be stored in a certain temp range? Thanks!

[@AMMO-NYC]

For AMMO products, as long as they don't freeze you're ok. Thanks for watching!
