Just finished this a month ago, waiting till spring to pave the driveway and add a 80'x8'h retaining wall at the low end, and I'll finish the inside next year. It is 50x30 with a full second floor(49x21x9'3"h), doors are 3-9'wx8'h and 1-9'hx9'w, painted to match my 80x50 barn for the horses.

Thank you, it was hard to commit to the placement of the garage but I'm happy with the end result, its getting there. More money would get it finished faster. lol

Default Put them to sleep for the night.

With the rains not giving us much of a break here in the PNW, decided to get them all clean and covered for a slumber. Pic looked cool with all the cars covered. Left to right 991 GT3 991 Turbo S and GT4.

Default Question

Hi everyone,

Didn't know where else to post this.
​​​​​​i would like to improve upon the appearance of my garage at some point before I acquire my first porsche. I live in the NY where I'll drag a lot of garbage on the floor during the wintertime.

I don't plan to place a lift or do any mechanical work in the garage. Would you recommend an epoxy floor or something like racedeck? Also, for the exposed concrete on the walls would a concrete stain be appropriate?

lastly would you hire specifically a contractor specializing in garages? I dont need anything fancy just a clean, basic

and timeless look.

Thanks!

I've got industrial type tiles in my garage. Installed about 6 months after the heated concrete slab was poured. Water lines in the concrete. This is very common way to heat houses in Scandinavia.
Haven't had any issues with cracks.

Skinny hasn't been driven a lot this summer. Every time I go out there I always pick the 4.0l. At least they're not cold during the long winter. Keep it at a comfortable 68 degrees in there.
