Well, since my girlfriend moved in with me, i have a need for a lot more storage space, i am de-cluttering my house, and garage, and trying to make it into a much more usable space.
I have a few things i want to do to get it all up to scratch!
After the initial de-cluttering i will be doing a big dump run, then i will need to find storage for all the rest of the stuff.
So, the project goals are:
1- De-clutter
2- Board Loft
3- Install ladder flush to wall
3- Epoxy floor paint (smooth and shiney, hopefully!) (something like This)
4- High level shelving
5- Paint/cover/carpet walls
6- Plumb into house electrical supply (I think i will get someone in to do this part)
7- Fit lighting/sockets
I have boarded my house lot before, and was pretty happy with the results, so i will get some tonge and groove stuff together and knock that up in a day or so.
I have some questions though...
What is the best way to paint breezeblock and bricks?
How much will it cost to get someone in to stick a cable underground to the garage, is this even possible/legal? Here is the layout courtesy of Google Maps.
Has anyone ever epoxied a floor before? I dont see many in the UK, why is this, are they too slippy in the UK's colder climate!!
Anyone know where i can get a flush mount wall ladder?
