- Building a Metal Garage! Part 1: In this first episode of the detached Garage/Shop build project, we get the concrete pad poured, leveled and smoothed out. This video will show you the entire process from start to finish, along with a price breakdown for the concrete slab!

To answer any questions about the concrete’s strength, it’s 3000psi rated concrete with reinforced fiber mesh throughout the entire slab, with a 4” base and 12” footers. According to Adam from Chobee it should be plenty strong enough for a lift in the future, but worst case if not he’s more than happy to add depth for where a lift will go!
@diiviinemedia any concrete that can be pumped has to have small rock so for it to still be as stronge they have to use a different mix so it's stronge but ends up being stronger
A 4 POST OR LIFT IN STORE???
This is really cool to see and so pumped for the final product. Great to see
Interesting no steel reo in the concrete. Apart from what’s in the drain
No rebar 🤔 not used to seeing that out here in California
Dam mike this shop is gonna be hella sick!!! reach out to boxo to see if they would be willing to sponsor some tool sets and to a lift company to see if they would be willing to sponsor a lift. with your following you could def pull that off.
Would have been if someone would raised the grade thus way floor was highest spot on property.
Glad that you get to build your own garage. Keep up the hard work💪
I can understand running a tad bit short but these guys ran out 2/3 of the way there… did they not account for the footings? Whoever measured for concrete is responsible for that terrible cold joint. Also 4 inch concrete with no real reinforcement is not enough for the lift.
Is it deep enough for the lift anchors? I remember whenever we installed ours they had pretty strict guidelines for even a 4000kg lift. Also a minimum horizontal distance from post to other concrete anchors or edge of concrete. Anyway, hyped for you to have a workspace of your own!
No mesh in it so the floor isn't strong enough for anything heavy
Nooooo biggest mistake ever is not putting in a drain system on the inside 😢 cost me a pretty penny to install one afterwards
Laying concrete is like an art form to me. I have been intrigued by it since i was a kid
Once its rested etc you could have the whole concreate base polished. Thats what most shops do. Those Epoxy coatins and or paints always peal up...
I have a paver driveway leading to my garage and it is very convenient to back out of the garage, wash the car and blow dry it, then pull back in to finish with a detail spray and wipe. Your plumber should be able to easily (and cheaply) get you some water to the garage for a wash sink and your power washer. Oh, and still less grass to cut!
So interesting not seeing rebar used across the entire slab. Im assuming there arent any hoists/lifts going in and it simply just needs to handle the weight of two cars and some storage. But still interesting to see how other countries do it.
No base, no compaction, no wire mesh tied into the rat wall footing rebar, and a giant cold joint. 😬😶🌫️
It’s Florida, the ground doesn’t move there he has fibermesh in the concrete it will be fine.
Cheers from Brazil
I think that all car guys wish we had a secondary garage just for personal projects. Pretty sick idea and I'm looking forward to seeing how you can get OG Matt to deck the space out for you!
Can't wait to see it finished!
Keep the great work man hope you have a great day
“Im biiiig important inspector man, im here to inspect your shit!” Lmaooo
the building and concrete was the quick part for us
Excited for this journey let’s go 🍿🔥
I'm here for this build. Stoked for you
What an epic first episode. Hopefully I can do this one day.
Did you get dale gribble ( king of the hill show) to do the pesticide spraying , dude has a smoke it his mouth no mask on out the spraying it around like hes trying to wright his name 😂
Can’t wait to see it complete Mike 👌🏼
Fun fact. That plastic is actually a vapor barrier keeps water/moisture from coming up through the concrete.
I'd love to have my own shop someday and this is so inspiring to me!
This is going to be SICK!! Nice to see your dreams coming to reality. These are my future goals as well.
Coming along nicely 👌
These guys are very spot on, been working in concret for 13 years, you got a golden job id say congrats you deserved it! / worked .... im hype its all check box from them
@mathieupoitras9087 bro the pad has a giant cold joint in it 🤣
@@buttontooth1I wouldn't be happy about that, unacceptable.
No rebar and a cold joint, too thin for lifts, no drains…..I have also worked in concrete, this was a shit job
The new tat is fire! 👻📷
This is super sick and a big milestone. I think you should’ve went deeper with the concrete so you could’ve installed a lift down the line. But there are other solutions to that. Congrats!
Big moves!
It’s my dream to have a shop too but also those white fences
hey mike they always order it by 10 yards cause trucks have 10 yards so they always order whats called a tail like if the slab takes 12 yards then its a 1 truck and a 2 yard tail
Be cool if you ended up doing concrete tiles for the driveway to the shop with grass growing in the holes and cracks of the concrete. Always looks really high end when done well. I think you could do it
Nice burnout pad
Wow builders there have it super easy digging in sand, in UK it's rocks and bricks plus hard soil.
I think you may run into problems with the driveway heading into the back garage maybe do gravel base and use pavers instead I feel the gravel would sink due to the weight
@@pinkpantherr93 I could do either, I think nice white gravel would look awesome but I agree it could sink. We’ll see!
@@diiviinemedia You could just compact it down and set another layer of gravel if that happens, no?
what a shoddy job they didn't haul away the left over dirt and left a massive cold joint in the slab instead of knowing how much concrete to order lmao
He wanted the dirt there to make a smooth level up from lawn to slab, but yeah I agree with the join
@@Tube4TTT how much dirt do you need for a 3 inch ramp lmao all that grass is going to die. could have just bought $10 worth of soil bags and would have saved all your grass from dying
First garage, then driveway to garage!
Coming from the northeast it’s crazy the amount of sand lol I just got 46x40 of my garage concrete done my building is 40x80 … the ground is all dirt and rock under my building
Nice
I'm allergic to Grass cuttings , I can't even be around when someone else is cutting grass . So if I had a big yard I would have to pave the whole thing . And maybe lay out some of that green indoor outdoor carpet instead of grass .
Mike are you going to just drive on the grass to get to your new garage or are you going to add a pathway or smt?
Is it meant to be for storing 2 cars? I'm trying to imagine walls, 2 cars, and tools and atleast to me it seems like it's gonna be a small cramped area. Idk maybe I'm trippin!
No mesh in the slab . That's 100% going to crack within 5 years . A garage and driveway should always have mesh in it.
Lifts? Did you happen to read up on BendPaks requirements?
Struggling to understand why you've put the garage slap bang in the middle of the garden. Isn't there a double gate around the side of the house? If you turned it 90 degrees and put the garage facing the gates. Driveway... And still a useable garden?
Im sure om missing alot of things here but just how it looks to me?
Privacy mainly, would rather have it deeper in the yard then out by the main road
Are you gonna make a concrete driveway to the garage or just drive up the grass
Update on the Del Sol?
good job !!! hey what type of camera is that ..... wireless ? what's the brand ?
are you going to have a concrete ramp from yard level to floor level on the new garage?
Where you get to cut your time on mowing you get to add to your weed eating time lmao garage looking fuckin sick!! 🤙🏻
I’m starting the process of doing a similar project in my back yard. I was curious what company you went with for the garage itself.
Should split the money you make of this series with the shed builders
Should have made it a abit bigger so you have space for lifts and tool box and some storage for parts
Are there any plans for a driveway in front of the shop?
Gees it’s all just beach sand out there
Hey Mike. What's the reason that you're placing the garage so far away from the gates to your yard??? You're going to "ruin" your entire yard with the driveway up to the garage....🤷🏻♂️
@@danielhansen4602 I’d rather keep my cars tucked away in the yard than right next to the main road for peace of mind. Easy enough to make a gravel run up to the garage
OG collab right?? 😊
Are going to have a lift
concrete slab DOGO inspector !
Anyone else got an add of the inspector guy? 😂
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
No drain system is gonna bite you in the butt
What is it in Meter?
Roughly 55 square meters
Building was going to be 22x25ft which makes sense that the pad would be 1ft larger leaving you with ~6" aprons everywhere. That works out to be 6.7x7.6 meters for the building giving you 550sqft works out to be ~50.9 sq meters of floor space.
epoxy that and be done
Damn thats expensive for such a terrible job, no base, no compaction, no drain, no rebar or mesh, a cold joint. I paid half that for a slightly bigger pad 200mm thick with rebar and mesh.
How the hell you gonna get a car back there lol
thats crazy that it doesnt even look like dirt.. basically beach sand.
LESS TALK MORE ACTION
cute nails
why tf are your fingernails painted lol
Thing ain’t thick enough for lifts! And no reinforcement smdh
lmfao sick nails
