    Final Inspection Auto Detailing moves into a new shop!!!

    Hey everybody. Been absent here for the past month or so. My family and I purchased a 6 acre property and closed on June 30th. Since then we have been going non stop getting the house, shop renovations completed. As of now I'm going to start moving my equipment in tomorrow.

    Before we moved in






    So the 40x60 Morton building is now divided into two sides. Each roughly 40x30. My shop on one side and the other is my wifes barn stalls for our horses.

    In order to get my shop going we first had to remove 40+ yards of fill to prep for a 6in concrete slab. First we started by digging down and sinking 2 55 gal drums for my drain/dry well setup.





    Once that was done. We removed the rest of the fill, checking grade as we went. We also built in a grade to pitch towards the drain. Once finished we compacted, laid down a vapor barrier and had the slab poured.









    Next was a dividing wall framed with 2x6s




    My brother in law handle all the electrical work. 10 4 gang boxes and 6 high bay LED UFO lights. I also pressure washed all the walls to remove years of dust and dirt.

    Lights off vs lights on



    Gave one of my cars the first bath






    And one of our horses looking for treats lol

    Congrats on the new house and barn. Are you planning to add a ceiling and finish the walls on your shop side?

    Morton builds some amazing barns. I built a 48x56 Morton a few years ago and it’s one of the best purchases I’ve ever made.

    Thats exactly the next plan. To insulate the walls and ceiling then have a HVAC system installed this fall.
