Hey guys, looking for a garage 3.6m wide x 10m long. The last 4x3.6 will be a habitable room/study with internal lining and insulation.
3 options to consider.
a) Simple garage kit from supplier - cheap, easy but vertical colorbond cladding. I'd really like a horizontal profile though to match the house so....
b) Metal frame - clad it myself in horizontal hardie plank at 600 centres. But where to buy a simple metal frame garage kit in Sydney? There's a mob on ebay but they're in Gold Coast so $600 delivery :(
c) Timber frame - local mob offering to build a timber frame version but whats the long term reliability? good for lining I guess?
Opinions? contacts for metal frame garage kit?
Thanks, Matt
