    You got an absolute steal on your prices!! We literally just had the same building installed up here in Ohio. Cost just a hair over 11k. (Purchase and install) our concrete slab and digging was almost 13k!! (Went a little thicker to have a 2 post car lift installed) but still. We haven't even started on electrical and insulation and all that yet. Crazy. Good job to you man

      Damn! Yeah, I know things have gone way up since I first ordered this building… And I was fortunate to have a hook up on the concrete… Good luck with the building in the build out👍🏼

    Looks really good. I did something similar about two years ago and I really enjoy it. My building is 28 x 20 and looks almost identical to the one that you did. I used rigid insulation as well but I did not leave an airgap like you did so I definitely learn something by watching this video. I may pull it off and put something back there to space it out and give me that 1 inch gap. Great job! Look forward to watching more of your videos.

I ordered from a dealer for Carolina carports and since I’ll be trying to keep my shop warm I spent the big cash for their insulation package.
    Thanks for the tips with electric and water, I’ll be doing the same hopefully soon.

    here in AZ bought 28 x 30 metal building with 4 windows cost 20k. yep got it when prices jumped. Plan were $1300 but permit was only $140. But I also upgraded my steel to 12 gauge. I do like the wooded panel may do this and add shower inside since i will be living in it for a while til house is built. Love the plant idea. We hava alot of wind here and holding down plants was a concern.

    I got a nice concrete pad in my back yard that I'd love to build on, but it is sloped for the rain. I'd like to make a 35' wide and 38' long metal shop, but that slop is probably going to be an issue, right?

    • @The_Heights

    What made you go bubble vs foam? I'm reading that bubble wrap is best so long as you're not cooling more than 8-10 hours a day. Also, I'm in Tampa also. Care to refer your friend's concrete contact?

    • @The_Heights
      @The_Heights  8 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      It seems like the reflective bubble wrap would work as well in my mind I was thinking the R-value would probably be better on something thicker that also has a reflective backing like the foam board so I just chose that… i’m sure either one would work. It’s Leola concrete but they’re a giant brand. I’m not sure the actual crew of guys who came out to do the work. I don’t think they normally do small jobs like this.
