  • If you are thinking of covering your shop or garage walls, there are many options. The 3 cheapest options are drywall, metal siding and OSB. Depending on you application, any one of these may be fine for your shop. For me, OSB was the best choice. OSB is cheap, mouse resistant, flat, and able to be screwed to. These reasons fit all of the criteria for my shop, so it's what I installed.

    Thank you so much. I have been trying to figure out for months the best way to finish a garage Im renting out of because Im absolutely tired of looking at the insulation! I appreciate you so.

    Wanting a very inexpensive option & having wondered about putting this in my garage (2/3 unfinished), I'm thrilled to see it done, and to have your experienced opinion. I know nothing about nothing re: building & woodwork, but this seems pretty straight fwd. Thank you!

    I put 7/16 inch OSB up in my workshop out back. Surprisingly, my stud finder can still locate stud through it. I was a little surprised. Plus, I can easily find where they are just by looking for the nails.

    I live in Michigan and have a small machine shop. I finally heated it with Nat Gas and decided to wall with OSB. Glad I did. I agree with your reasoning. Now I have to decide on a ceiling after two winters out there. I insulated the walls with 13 and the ceiling with 38. What's cool (no pun intended) is the shop stays cool in the summer now without AC. Plus almost zero humidity if you keep the doors closed. I'm thinking 3/8 rock up top painted white.

    Hi from the UK, i have just started doing this in my garage using 11mm thick OSB, I like you do like the plane look of the OSB what I have done is use counter sunk machine screws and used threaded inserts for the same reason incase I need to get behind to add a nogging or two for extra support for weight. Nice video

    I only use two gang receptacles for an extra few bucks you save the wire multisnakes. Also amazon has multitasker box blades which cut all four sides one and two gang boxes. We are going big bucks for trusscore in apartments. Expensive on the truck way less on the wall with decades of no paint.

    Whatever you use you should have raised it at least a quarter to a half inch off the floor so it wouldn't wick any water off of the concrete.

      I agree, it looks prettier done like that. It's also a major structural advantage where needed. This didn't require any additional structural support, nor did it need to look pretty.

    Not a big deal, but I would stagger the joints to add a little more stiffness to the wall.

    • @Challenged1
      @Challenged1  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I thought of that before I started, but couldn't find a practical reason to do it. With the outside of the walls clad in metal, I don't think the walls would need to get any stiffer.

    OSB is a great choice for your application. It is durable, resists dings, and provides solid backing for anchors. Drywall is a less expensive alternative, but it dings easily and could absorb moisture if installed too close to the floor. Moisture Resistant drywall on the lower course would provide some moisture protection. I like drywall because when painted, it is very bright. That becomes more important to me as I get older and require more light to work indoors. In my opinion, metal roofing/siding is a poor choice, because it could trap moisture in the wall cavity and not allow the wall to dry out because you already have an impervious barrier on the outside.
    One option you did not discuss is a combination of these materials.For instance, OSB could be used on the lower 4 or 8 feet, with drywall above. This puts the durable material where it is more likely to get dinged, with the cheaper alternative above. One could paint the lower course a darker color to conceal dirt/finger prints, with a brighter color above to help with light reflection.
    One last suggestion; stagger your joints. Breaking sheets on the same stud screams DIYer. You did a great job with your installation but stacking joints puts you in the same class as so many other weekend warriors. Your attention to detail tells me you're a step above that.

    • @Challenged1
      @Challenged1  ปีที่แล้ว +5

      For drywall, I would agree to stagger the joints. For OSB, it serves no practical purpose when the exterior of the building is clad in metal siding. No additional wall strength is needed.

      Hopefully your still looking at comments...anyway, I hv 30x40 pb, I'm working on. Woodstove in corner. I'm using 36 in wainscoting around the bottom. I came across some 1/4 inch pegboard I'm using on an endwall that will cabinets/ shelves etc. I'm going with 1/2 drywall above that. Osb is pushing 20 bucks a sheet and going up with no end in sight. I hv used pb insulation for walls and attic 9 in thick.
      So with this. I'll hv to put up vapor barrier over insulation first. Got lost here. But another option is pegboard, if you watch the weight your hanging in wall

    I am leaning towards doing this to my detached single car garage as well and I was wondering if I need to do anything with the seams. I would have to tape and bed the seams for drywall, is there an equivalent process that is needed with OSB to close up the seams? Thanks.

    • @Challenged1
      @Challenged1  ปีที่แล้ว

      In my opinion, OSB is probably for those that don't care about the seams. I'm not saying you couldn't mud and tape them, but the rest of the board that isn't mud and taped wouldn't match the texture of the finished areas.

    Sheet metal is expensive, but maybe add a 4" strip of sheet metal along the bottom so mice don't chew thru the OSB?

      I did. I bought the trusses from chicken house that was being torn down. They were originally designed with an angled vertical section attached directly to concrete on the ground with angled canvas walls. To get the height that I needed and have straight walls, pillars were placed at the base of the trusses, and walls were placed vertically inline with the outermost point (top) of the truss. Hindsight, I should have just bought new trusses with straight legs. Sometimes, you just work with what you have.

Her only options was to take it up, or sell the cabin. She sold. My friend had experienced lung damage from diesel fuel working as a tug boat captain in Valdez. That could have made her over-sensitive to it. Also, she purchased the OSB over twenty years ago, so maybe things have changed.
