Hello
I am going to attempt a "mostly" self-build of a double garage. I can do a 6m x 6m single storey, with pitched roof and gable ends with no planning permission. It is unlikely this will ever hold cars, unless I build one. It is going to be a workshop/man cave and will be used a fair bit in the winter months, so I would like it to be warm and toasty.
Having had a cold concrete floor in a previous garage, I was thinking about under-floor heating powered by a wood burner, but also wondered weather I should use block walls with a cavity, or single block built around wood frames and Kingspan.
Cost is a consideration but not if it ends up being a fridge like my last garage. I will get a brickie to do the blockwork, I could do it but not in a reasonable amount of time, so I will just do the rest.
Does anyone have any thoughts? or am I missing lots of other information?
