I've tried laying brick a few times and failed miserably so I employed the professionals to do the easy part of the build and a couple of weekends later the foundations were in.



Sadly the pit was below the water table so the idea scrapped


and the pit area backfilled.


The very first of my vehicles to enter the new garage


Walls go up at a tremendous rate




Gable end up and steel beam set


Then it was my turn and the roof trusses were put in
Sadly when working alone there is the risk of something going wrong
I was rushing to beat the rain and had not secured the trusses properly when the wind caught them and they went down like a set of dominos taking the gable end out with then



and boy did it rain a half hour later
