The tin should all be finished tomorrow

All the walls are up , roof is on

Roller door and gutters to go and I think he's about done

 

Concrete on Monday

Then paint the floor boxing day (maybe) and start moving stuff back in and figuring out where it all goes

Leave it for at least 7 days neil
3 steps to painting concrete
acid wash the concrete then hose off then let dry
then i would primer the concrete with a concrete sealer
then 2 coats of industrial paint
dont use cheap shit paint it will peel off fact

I also fitted one of these to my shed roof along with insulation. You can actually go in there in summer time, not to do any work, but you can at least go in.

Looking great Neil. A good shed is like a car resto, do it once and do it right. Slow down on the floor paint, like Gene said it needs time to cure. My favorite finish is 'nuMark' with the fleck sprinkled on it. Rock hard, that cat couldn't scratch it. Marty

I'm happy to go the right way with the floor paint

But as you can see theres very little new concrete going in

So not sure I need to wait too long

And with the current summer weather shouldn't take long for the mud to dry up nicely

 

And Jeff... send me that Camaro anytime

 

No theres no roof insulation yet

Can barely afford the shed

I still want a mezzanine floor too !!!
