Camper Garage Progress Report

Shop/garage project took on some real progress today with the roof getting framed out. The roof frames were assembled on the ground and winched into place. Contractor said that project should be done by mid next week.

    Very nice Dave. Going to insulate the inside?
    You are going to enjoy keeping your rig out of the weather.

    What are the dimensions?

    Jim, the roof is insulated for condensation. I'll have to see whether I want to insulate the walls. I'm contemplating sheathing them to like 6 or 8' with plywood. 24'W X 36'L X 15.5'H

    Good you will like the absence of that condensation. When we had ours built, all metal, we insulated the whole thing. It's really nice!

    We now have the Camper cave, garage and shop all the same color. Shop has 2 roll up doors. 16x12 and 8x7....

    Pretty much moved in to the shop... Note the shiny insulation reflecting the overhead lights.

  • Now that it is done can you place a sewer dump out along side the driveway along with a hose bibb?

    There is a sewer cleanout at the curb in the front of the house that is easily accessible. When I start my landscaping I will be running a hose bibb to each end of the garage.
  • Really nice, perfect for a TC, thanks for sharing pics and dimensions.
