If I remember correctly it was around 28 squares.

$13,300 is what I paid. They used the Owen's Corning 5 part system with duration shingles. The duration shingles seemed like a good middle of the road shingle when I researched them.

Just thought that I would give an update. After talking with the roofer he agreed to put ridge vent back on there. Here are some pics of the finished roof if anyone sees anything out of place just let me know. Thanks

Thanks again for all the replies. I will nicely try to convince him to put it back on in that area. The bad part of the scenario is that I paid for 1/2 of the job already over the winter as a deposit and it was not brought up until now so it is not as easy as just use someone else. Hopefully he...

Thanks for all the replies so far. The house currently does have a ridge vent there and I believe the soffit on the bottom in that section is vented. I want it done right but also do not want to make the roofer mad and question his credibility and create problems if something has changed and...

Yes, the ceilings are vaulted for the most part. The spot that is bumped out has a normal flat ceiling for 1.5 feet or so then it angles up to a vaulted ceiling.

I know this is way off topic but thought that I would ask here since there are a lot of people here experienced in different things. We are getting our roof replaced and the contractor is saying that he is not going to put ridge vent back on in the area circled. He said most new houses do not...

Thanks for all of the advice given. I just thought that I would give an update. I ended up going with the 14x28 metal shed. I did have them add another layer of 5/8 flooring on top of the 3/4 treated plywood floor. I put the car in it today for the winter and everything seemed fine. Next summer...

I just looked at the sheds for less website and prices have gone up a lot from what you posted (I am sure due to prices now vs pre-covid). A 12x24 garage is listed at 8,599 and that does not include the garage door, shingles and roof trim or paint.

Thanks again for all the replies on this. Yes I do need a building permit and it has been approved. I am not sure if a shed would be taxed or not but probably in my town. In the long run a garage with a poured pad would probably be better but for timing now the shed is a better fit for me. The...

Around here it is just standard for them to block it. It is a extra charge to have gravel brought in and leveled but I think it is worth it as it will only be as good as the base that it is on.

Thanks for the replies so far. I will also have the people come in and put down the gravel base and level it properly so hopefully that will help it be as sturdy as possible.

I am looking at buying a prebuilt portable garage shed that would be 12x28. I would be buying it store my duster in it over the winter along with some other stuff. Does anyone here use one for car storage and if so how is the wood floor holding up? The specs on the floor would be 2x6 floor...

Thanks for the info so far. I will wire it using the starter relay.

I am starting to install a painless wiring harness into a 69 cuda that is in process of being put together. The car is not going to be stock so factory appearance and workings does not matter. It looks like the instructions show how to do it without the factory starter relay on one page and then...
