Responding to your comments and suggestions ! | Dream Garage Ep2 

Probably a headroom problem at the top of the stairs with that solution?

We are boarding the garage with ply then plaster board 👍

Thanks 🙏🏻

That’s the plan 👍

Yeah probably. Two car spaces is just fine 👍

Thanks 🙏🏻 A useful skill to have in my job 😜😂

We are going for wall mounted electric heaters 👍

These guys clean up every night but I know what you mean 😬

Our pleasure!

LOL 😂

👍

👊

Indeed 👍

Wow, thank you

Great point!

I get that concept 👍 leaving the bricks exposed wasn’t really an option due to the damp treatment that was required 😢

​@PetrolPed haha, oops I should've said no internal walls except the damp proofing, I totally understood the damp proofing was needed. I was meaning the partition internal walls 👍 Loving the videos as usual 😎

More to come!

@@PetrolPed yes please 😃👍

Thanks. I hope so 👍

Oh yes 🙌

Hope so!

That’s the best bit 👍

Thanks for this. I’m sure you are right about the rain 😂

Thanks 🙏🏻

Will do 👍

Great idea 👍

Very true!

Turdis…brilliant 😂

😂😂😂

Great tip!

Thanks mate 🙏🏻

Thanks 🙏🏻

Coming soon 👍

Thanks. The scaffold guys were brilliant. Back next week to put a birdcage in the access the roof 👍

@@PetrolPed ouch price wise but good for them doing a proper job and valuing safety

Then you drag the lawn mower through the kitchen 😬😜

Great to hear 👍

Thanks 🙏🏻

Hi Heidi. Big hi to Steve and T says hi too. Can’t wait to share the build. Hope you guys are well 🙏🏻

Any time!

Great idea

Thanks 🙏🏻

Fingers crossed!

Thank you 🙏🏻

That's a great idea!

The glass veiwing square is a good idea, until you come to costing it, then it suddenly doesn't seem needed😢

Nice 👌

Still working on a plan for the doors 👍

Thanks 🙏🏻

Long exam though. 3 hours 45 mins if I remember correctly 😬

Thanks 👍

Thanks for the idea!

That's the plan!

They are brilliant. Really tidy, great work ethic and top quality work 👍

@@PetrolPed iv been in the trade for 35 years and iv never advertised, just word and mouth, old saying look after the team and they’ll look after you 👍

Thanks 🙏🏻

Awesome, thank you!

Me too 👍

👍

Thanks 🙏🏻

😂😂😂

Nice idea 👍

You and me both!

Indeed 🙏🏻

Sure was 👍

👍

Glad you like them!

😂😂😂

Love that 😂

As others have said we all love a dream garage or in my case any..!! 😢 😂 lol, great that your doing these videos 📹 on the build, there a trader who did a similar thing here on you Tube sorry can't think of the name I think it might be Prestige Vision it was great In my opinion so looking forward to the process may be when finished you will have a nice new motor in there me thinks 😉😎😅👍

Hi John We have actually spoken about both of these as well as putting a softener in the main house. Would love to chat about this 👍 Drop me an email 👍 ped.greaves@gmail.com

Thanks 👍

It has full approval from building control 👍

It’s a garage, so an internal Type A fully bonded waterproof membrane (aka black jack) is perfectly fine unless there’s hydrostatic pressure (unlikely). One thing I would have done though is ‘flush up’ the existing wall before painting. If you check the TDS for the product they used, I would pretty much guarantee the manufacturer recommends doing that.

Thanks for the tips!

@@PetrolPedYes I agree…don’t go for the painted floor idea which I did in 1993 and had to redo every five years afterwards as it peels off under the tyre “ parking spots”. I used vinyl heavy duty floor tiles this time with a “coin” finish which has worked perfectly but be careful of colours. I chose a grey floor with red parking bays…it looks good BUT the red has faded back if I compare it with a new spare bit. That is only after two years…in isolation you don’t see it but fading is something to consider. Re the walls…when we did the new bathrooms here, they are all “tanked” with blue sealant painted over tile backer board which is very water resistant unlike standard plasterboard. I’m thinking of the earth retaining walls and would add a layer of tile backer board, seal that again and then the plasterboard finish. Airflow is important as well so maybe some regular ventilation grills along the lower edges to allow for circulation upwards toward the roof and not completely seal the top of those walls. All the internals etc don’t need that but that earth retaining aspect does need multiple protection now it is covered up…my Aunt basement used to be a nightmare in the 1950/70’s for tat very reason. Just some thoughts Peter…use every protection you can at this stage..afterwards is a nightmare!! Richard🤔😀😀😀😀😀

Nice idea but there will be something very cool on the ceiling 😜

@@PetrolPed A Michaelangelo style fresco?

Damn you guessed it 😂

Yeah. I think you could be right 👍

Could be 😂

😂😂😂

Great idea 👊👍

Where would the stairs go ?!

Think there's a Mrs P involved in the equation too 😅

@@PetrolPedthe stairs stay against the back wall, turning halfway as I suspect you have them planned, they’d be open, no wall alongside, that way you can “nose” a car under them if necessary. Otherwise you can put a sink and kettle under the stairs. You’d easily fit your Mini Roadster in this side, leaving two full size bays for your other cars. But hey, it’s your garage…..

It’s a moving target. 4-6 months but they are making amazing progress 👍

Hi 👋

😂😂😂

😜👍

Not yet!

Discussed this at length with building control and they are more than happy with our solution 👍

Not sure how you would do that though 🤷‍♂️

@@PetrolPed yes difficult and expensive. Previously the moisture was getting through and because the bricks on the inside of the garage were exposed to the atmosphere, the moisture was drying off. I hope I am wrong but now that you have sealed them on the inside face the moisture will build up in the bricks and eventually blow off the black tar substance. Anyway I hope it all goes well. It will look great. Thanks for your content

Hell yes…and a wine fridge 😜👍
