plastic garage

Ok, were buying our first home, and it has no garage its a very nice home though, anyways as sad as i am about this, life will go on lol, next home will most def have one, so i want to get a plastic one simualr to the ones at home depot, ill spend the money on a good quality one no problem, anyone know where i can get a decent one, and what the $, i live near Ottawa Canada, and will check our Home Depot, ive seen lots! of them in peoples driveways, mostly the cheap everyday white ones, but the other day i saw what looked to me like a dark silver one in color, looked very sturdy, just dont know where to look for it? search around on web sites, but nothing so far, and oh ya i plan on leaving it up all yr around

If it were me I would bite the bullet and go knock on the door of house with the Silver type one you liked the look of.
Most probably the owner would be flattered you liked their taste and would be very helpful.

No garage! I'd take the house back! Just kidding. I'm with Mr Concours, ask the owners of the nice one you like.
I'm kinda in the same situation, but I rent. My next home will definitely have a garage, or I'll build one. Washing my car in the rain is getting old

Okay, I got home and grabbed my Northern Tool & Equipment Co Catalog (www.northerntool.com).

On pages 132-139, for $299.99 was a single car/small boat garage. They also have a double car garage for $899.99.

I hope helps,

David

Hmm...those instant garages look pretty nice. For under $300, it seems like a good deal, too.

Anything would be better than being open to the elements and having to detail in the blazing sun. Thanks for the link, dternst!

Yep trying to detail in the blazing sun, just doesnt cut it, i normally have to wait for sunset approx, if i had to detail during sun, i was constantly rinsing down

well i went over to the house where the tarp was, no one was home, i just measured the garage, and wrote down the comp name http://www.abrisharnois.com/en/produit_XR_11.html I like the XR-11 model in Gray though, perfect size, good construction, lots of options, may get wind straps for extra protection?
