Quote from Versatube (the company I bought my building from)

"Weekends are made for garage building! With versatube building systems you can build a garage in as little as one weekend."..." You and a couple of helpers can cross off 'build a garage' from your weekend to do list in no time!"

Reality=

"The months of January and February are made for garage building! You and 7 friends/neighbors (or used to be friends), several of the bigger kids from your church youth group, a couple of day laborers, and 5-6 hundred dollars in lift equipment can cross off 'visiting the 7th circle of ****' from your to do list... and it may never end!
Issues like you've been experiencing led me to take a different route. I hired a concrete contractor, then a carpenter, then a roofer, a garage door installer, an insulator, a painter, and a gutter guy. Got the 28' x 54' shop done in about 3 months. All I had to do was write the checks!

Good luck with your project!
