Thats what it suppose to do is match the house. I've checked on the brick yet but the people I bought the house from say they have the name. I hope the still make these brick.

Sweet, you gonna pour a 6" slab so you can put a lift in there?

Cause you know you're gonna want one eventually.

I want to cut the centers out of my trusses and engineer them so I can put a lift in there, but I'm gonna probably have to reinforce my floor where the pads go for the lift.

Either that or just build another darn garage.

I am going to put a lift in there one of these days but didn't think about the concrete needing to be 6 ". I was going to put wire down and pour a 4 " slab. I'm assuming the problem would be the anchor bolts for the lift would need to have 6" around them to hold properly.

Nice looking mulli.. Gonna be a super manacavo!

Hyraulic cement is a powder that you add water, knead like a putty, and shove in the openings. You can use it even on a hole that is dripping, running water. Used it in my first house in the middle of a rainstorm when water started coming through the foundation. Worked as well as the little Dutch boy, and didn't require feeding :)

Ok but I'm lost on the reason of the hydrualic cement being needed. There will be little dirt added around the shop because it's just about perfect now. I won't have water going towards the shop it will be going away. I think I will seal the outside with something and call it good.
