    This is probably the most informative cost-to-build shop video I've seen on UA-cam so far.
    If you're concerned about your videos running long,just do your videos in parts. Part 1,part 2..

    I Just built a 60x60x16 in NC. So, 1200sq ft larger. I have 140k in the building like it sits. Pad, building, R13 insulation, erection, two insulated 12x12 doors with side openers, electrical, 3 Mitsubishi 30k btu mini splits. Overhead and wall lighting, And Air system. This doesn’t include lifts or any of the equipment. Only thing I did was the electrical with the help of friends. 200 amp service, 54 slot panel, 12 230v circuits for lifts, mini splits, welders, plasma cutters, etc. Everything else was paid labor. Your equipment rentals are almost as much as I paid for the erection of the entire building. I also paid 23k for flatwork and the concrete pads at 6” thick. I used a foundation company. You lost out on those two things for sure. Don’t get me wrong, I ran into snags as well. But for 33% more building and at about the same price?

    • @kenschopshop
      @kenschopshop  4 місяці тому +5

      Yeah, I definitely over spent on some things for sure, especially the rentals . I later found a company that rents equipment about 40 min away that is much cheaper. Sounds like you got a pretty nice setup. My total cost did include the lift and materials for the mezzanine and lower walls but yeah like you said I definitely could have saved some in areas . Thanks for watching and congrats on your building it sounds nice!

    Thanks for this. Perfect detail and length. I paid more for my shop of similar size 35x70x16 but it was turn key. I always felt I overpaid a bit but I just needed it done so it was worth it. after watching this i think our costs were very similar minus the labor i paid for. Thanks again.

    Thank you for sharing your build costs. Its hard to estimate those especially with all the unknowns, or I forgots that will always pop up.
    I would definitely recommend having more back-fill around the shop. I have a garage that was built up similar that they put a sidewalk around with a strong slope right at its edge, and over its life the sidewalks have dipped significantly and exposed the foundation due to just the rain washing out a little dirt here and there over the years. (I can say with the other work quality it probably wasn't compacted right either) If I were to fix or build new I would have at least 5' of flat (with grade for drainage away) at the minimum, and then fill enough of the slope to mow without feeling like your going to fall over, or have the mower roll back over you (hand mowing)

    • @kenschopshop
      @kenschopshop  4 місяці тому +2

      Your welcome and thanks! It really is , there are so many little things that don't get thought of. Yeah that was something I originally wanted to have a few more loads of fill/topsoil brought in to grade the hill out more but couldn't get my dirt guys to bring any when I was trying to button up the outside for the final inspection but that's something I'd like to do this spring and at the same time run all my gutter drains under ground down to the bottom of the slope also. And I'd like to do like a 4' or so path of blue stone around the back and side against the building too. Thanks again for watching !

    I found an alternative for overhead lights, you might be interested in. I got a 10-pack of LED lights, from the "Jungle Site", for about $100. I think they were Benelli's , or something like that. They came with the connectors, to couple them together, pig-tails, and switched plug pig-tails, along with mounting clips. I used to have 8' florescent bulbs, in my 30'x40' garage, with 10' ceilings. They were ok-ish. But, the led's made a huge difference. They were real easy to replace and a whole lot less expensive to run. just a thought. Nice building.

    I’m a GC is S.FL so I don’t know anything:) but on the paint. I use Porter (similar to SW) and a better paint you will use less paint to cover the same. Less paint means less work. It kinda works out. Better paint has more zink (opaque) in it I believe. There is a reason pros don’t buy HD paint.. they can and HD offers so many deals.. this is to help the next guy out.. great video buddy

    • @kenschopshop
      @kenschopshop  2 місяці тому +1

      Thanks, yeah I used to always use duron paint back when I did remodeling work years ago but once SW bought them out we stopped, I was never a big fan of SW paint but their higher end lines do cover well but their prices are crazy, I started off painting the osb on the mezzanine with SW paint but it still needed 3 coats to get the covrage I wanted so I decided to try the e600 exterior semi gloss paint from HD and it covers just the same and was under a 3rd the cost as the SW so I just stuck with getting the rest from hd . Thanks again for watching and the input, it's all greatly appreciated!

    Super nice shop man. I’m glad I came upon this vid and saw the black insulation on the roof. I had no idea it was an option and was going to paint it which I would have hated every minute of. How big of a bathroom did you frame up? I’m thinking 8x8 because we may put a stand up shower in because it’s close to the pool, just not sure if I want it that big though as my building will be smaller than yours.

      Thanks. I appreciate that, and thanks for watching! So that's a tough question. Some quick response would be I wish I hadn't over dug my footers to use a little less concrete and hired a different concrete finisher in hopes of having a smoother floor . But after thinking on it for a few hours now and I also just got asked another question on a different video that made me think about it more one of my biggest pet peeves is the wind load cables on the 2 side walls (60' walls ) the are out in the I-beams and infront of my wood walls and it makes it a pain to put anything on those walls . Had I thought about it before hand I might have had them design it so the could be on welded brackets on the back of the beams if that was possible or have done that myself before I put the wood up . The other thing I second guessed myself on a few times was building orientation. I like what I have and that's what I wanted and fit my property best but sometimes I wondered if I would have been better off turning it sideways and having 3 bay doors on the 60' wall . But in the end I'm happy with what I have and if money allows in a few years I'd like to build a 30' wide by 60' long lean-to on the left side where I have cars parked beside the building nowand maybe close that in . If I had flipped the orientation, that wouldn't really have been a useful option imo.

      Thanks @tauntlines7712 good deal I'm up in spotsylvania. So I originally was looking at doing a pole barn but didn't want a flat ceiling (from the wood truss) and then started looking into company's that used steel clear span trusses like miracle truss and stroud building supply and the miracle truss route was going to be way more expensive and places like stroud weren't willing to work with me to get engineered drawings that would meet my county requirements so I said screw it and started looking into red iron and after getting a ton of quotes that were either all over the place on price and what they came with or they just never responded or gave such a generic response that I knew they didn't care I ended up going with maverick not only because they were the first to get back to me with detailed information, price and preliminary drawings but their price was on par or better then most of the other quotes and the customer service is what 100% sold me on them . If you do start looking into the red iron route hit them up and talk to Josh he was the sales rep I delt with and he answered all my questions and was super helpful. If you have any other questions hit me up I'll try my best to share whatever info I can . Thanks for watching !

I gather you went with their standard 14 gauge steel and not optional 12 gauge, I gather the steel is plenty thick to give great confidence of the buildings strength and integrity ? Sure does seem like few columns with long distances for girts and Purlins , when used to pole barn 8, pole spacing…thx

      Thanks I appreciate that , I'd have to go back and look at the engineered drawings to find the exact specs on the metal now but I went with what they suggested (the engineer) and according to all their specs they far exceed all the snow and wind loads my country requires. But coming from a background of stick building homes and garages and remodeling work (years ago) this is a very solid structure I was very impressed with it . And comparing it to say my metal carport that I can't walk on the roof without denting the metal this building I walked all over it without a worry other then the insulation dust I had to keep cleaning off the bottom of my shoes so I wouldn't slide off haha . Thanks again for watching and the comments!

    Nice shop, Thanks for sharing. How big is the Mini splits? and does 2 of them keep the entire shop cool? and is that your heat source too? Thanks for the info.

    • @kenschopshop
      @kenschopshop  6 місяців тому +1

      Thanks I appreciate that! They are both 36k btu (3 ton) units and yes I use them for heating and cooling although this is the first winter . But in the summer I kept them set at 70-72 and at that setting on the hottest days it would creep up to around 74 on the opposite side of the building but I couldn't crank them down and easily drop it to 68 in 30 min or so with them on the turbo mode . And for this winter I have been leaving then set at 64 and when we have gotten in the 20s/lower 30s at night it gets around 58-59 on the opposite side of the building but I can bump them up to say 68 or 70 and within 30-45 min I'm taking my jacket off because it's already feels good especially if I'm doing something. Hope that helps that's what I have experienced so far and for more background on weather for my area I'm in va near Fredericksburg so you can compare your weather to mine . Thanks again for watching !

    I was wondering a couple of things. How high are your walls? And how high is your measurement? And what would I be able to put a car left underneath? Is what I would like to do in a building that I built. Please comment back very nice garage

    • @kenschopshop
      @kenschopshop  16 днів тому

      Happy to answer, so my wall height of my building is 16' . Under the beams it a little shorter . Most average car lifts require about a 12' ceiling height as a minimum but my lift is actually 13'1" . My mezzanine floor height is 10' so the ceiling under it is about 9'1" . The office ceiling I think is right around 7' if I remember correctly and the bathroom ceiling slopes down with the roof . The storage loft above the office is like 4' tall at the front and 18" tall at its lowest point 10' back so that floor space there is like 10x11'4" . Thanks for watching and thank you ! If you have any other questions just let me know I'll try my best to answer or better explain

      Newby here, trying to prep for mine… Whats “Ghost piped”?
      Asking because I’m on well, & plan to build shop/garage 200’ from house & want it to be on its own (solar for electricity & well for water), but trying to figure the plumbing out. I want to run a full bath & would love some insight/ideas if able on how to do it.

    • @kenschopshop
      @kenschopshop  3 місяці тому

      @bradmason8334 I don't want to answer for him but I believe he's referring to having everything roughed in to come from outside to its final location in the building but instead of leaving the pipes stubbed up through the concrete 2' to tie in later he's got them covered with something like a coffee can about a 1/4" below the concrete so that way he can pass inspection for the building then add the plumbing after without inspection like I'm doing and just chip the concrete out pull the can and easily connect to the hidden pipes . But for mine I just put my pipes in the floor after the footer inspection and stubbed them up 2' and also outside the building a few feet under ground then did the concrete then for my final inspection I just piled up old insulation around the pipes to hide them lol

      Very true I didn't think to add those, the insurance I think only went up about 100 per year I think with adding 150k replacement value for the structure and adding like another 100k in person property to replace its contents . As for increased taxes I haven't seen that yet as they said I won't see the increased amount until this upcoming year . So hopefully they don't hit me too hard on that . Thanks for watching

      Damn 51k for a fully finished inside and out 40x100 that's good ! If my site had been flat it would have been much cheaper but we had to build it up over 4' in the right rear plus completely removing a bunch of large trees and roots . You got me curious about your building like was it a flat site to begin with? What year did you build it ?what type of building is it ( red iron, post frame , stick built , block , box tube ,ect...) ?and what part of the country? I only ask for curiosity sake to see how things compare in different areas or times or construction types. Anyway thanks for watching and hope your enjoying your shop as much as I do mine !
