my garage refurb

[jackofnotrade]

have been in our house for a couple of years now and havent had time to sort out the garage properly yet.

Have managed some new windows and re sheeted the roof as was leaking like a siv.

Inside has remained untouched apart from a couple nails to hang some tools on

here are some pics of it up to date

Did a few sketch plans on sketchup

also ordered these yesterday

wheel barrow bracket

3 of these

So thats us up to date, plan to paint walls white new shelfing and work bench and possibile new floor or leveling screed, undecided as of yet

bracket screwed on to wall

folded up

and bike on it

Not sure the wee screws will hold it long, may need to resin the screws in to make sure it is plenty stiff enough

also got my wheel barrow bracket on the wall

had to put it on the pillar so the handles could go down the side or wouldnt work with my wheel barrow

 

[jackofnotrade]

got a shelf above my bike sorted

more shelf brackets arrived

tool hanger

and the mess i still need to sort out

 

[jackofnotrade]

shelfs up

may buy some more brackets

next task is the workbench

Looking good! You've made real progress. Those tool hangers are a great space saver too.

Looks like it is coming along a treat. Im jealous infact thatyou have a garage. I'd love somewhere to store my tools and work on my car.

The wheelbarrow holder is a great idea. where did you get it?

il try remember to post the link up tomorrow

made no progress on the garage as have been on holiday for last 2 weeks, actually probably made more mess as started to mono block the drive. got about half way up, take a while doing it all yourself

will update with some pictures in next couple days

WOW, that's coming on a treat! Well done, any chance of some more photos? This sort of thing gives real inspiration to the rest of the Forum users.

Nice work

Can I ask, how much did you have to pay to get rid of the asbestos cement roof sections from the garage, as I wouldn't mind doing the same.

I like your idea of using google sketch for your garage plan DIY. More people should do that. Quicker than using 3d studio max!

Well havent done much on this at all recently. only update is that the fence is now finished, still need to haunch the back of paviors at garage door and sort out a small step at the path, maybe get some more work done in the next fe weeks, will see
