$22, 500 was the total for everything and just for concrete and frame was $11, 300 not a bad set up

I like your logic and your process. A really nice building that will serve you well for years. Nice job Lucas. 👍👍

[radoslavtomov]

This is how dream garage is supposed to be build. May you enjoy it for many years :)

Nice shop. I'm not far from you and was fortunate to find someone selling 2.75" thick foam board that came off a roof at Marathon. Got enough to do a 30x48 pole barn for a few hundred dollars.

Having had a couple of buildings built in the same timeframe as you, Lucas, I can say you got a DEAL!! Awesome how you and your son put in the effort to be able to have the shop of your dreams. Now clean up that floor!!! 🤣😂🤣

[CALB]

WOW!!! What an awesome deal!! Thanks for sharing all of your tips and sources to help save money on the build! ~Christy~

Thanks for the video! I’m starting a 28x36x10 now. Southern Indiana here.

[wmsterlingwright]

Thanks for the video. I'm about to build a 30x40 with a lift myself and this helps.

[markvelarde]

Great job sir. Sweat equity provides so much satisfaction for you and your family. I hope you all enjoy your shop for many years.

[OrangeismyNewGreen]

That’s a great deal for the size shop, you saved a lot of 💵 by doing the work yourself with Cameron👍🏻. Have a great weekend Lucas 🙂🙋🏼‍♂️👍🏻

[jamesharless]

Thisis excellent. We learn from our mistakes. Fabulous vids on this build.

Now I just need to find a large property to build a similar dream garage. :) Thanks for sharing your experience!

[MTXSHOvVSHO]

Fantastic.. Over the years this will certainly pay for itself and probably 10x more "comfortable" than my 2 car garage with the HOA hovering over me. I have to limit my projects to things that can be finished in one or two days time. Looks like you could do a full, custom build from the frame up and work as late as you want into the night. I've been 100x worse off than what you're doing right there because the work absolutely had to get done. I really hope you're enjoying and do some great projects there.

Thank you for your great videos. That garage wouldn't be allowed in Massachusetts, unfortunately. To build something that size would cost me over 150, 000. Enjoy your great garage.

great info! I"m looking to build a shop for my business and this first hand experience is priceless. thanks!

[roadglide]

Congrats 🎈🎉🍾! I absolutely luv it! I want to do the same myself!

Automotive lifts are required to be able to safely operate picking up 25% more than they are actually rated. So to get an 11, 000 lb capacity rating requires actual lifting capacity of 13, 750 lbs.
(7, 000 lb rated: will lift 8, 750 lbs;
9, 000 rated: will lift 11, 250 lbs)
I have installed hundreds of lifts of all types. Rotary, Challenger, Gilbarco, Ben Pearson, etc. 4 inches of reinforced concrete, ¾" anchor bolts, holes drilled all the way through, never had an issue.
