Slab down and first 800mm of wall up.
Wall to be core filled then tanked on the back to water proof before the aggy drains go down and back filled with rock.

The wall closest to the camera is a step up to the existing garage area.

All non-retaining walls on the bottom level will be framed and skinned with render bricks.

The garage entries will be a 4.8m and 6.0m panel lift, about 3 metres in height.

By comparison, my little 4m x 5m lean-to is well, somewhat embarrassing.

Looks good Jason! I might have to come up so I can change my fuses (no room in my shed to do that!).

Bugger! That looks like it'll be a pain to move. How did he manage to stuff it in there? Looks like he's cut the corner too sharp.

ROFL!


On another note, Jason, when are you going to get the driveway and your street sealed? Surely you're not going to let your Cobra's et al live in that fantastic garage all dirty?

Default Seperate houses

Didn't he say a house for him and a house for her at the start?? - lol

I reckon its a B&B on the go and will be oriented towards motoring enthusiasts.

Yes I'll have the full english breakfast when I get up at 10am Jason!
