I want to frame my exterior garage walls and add drywall. Currently the walls are poured 8" thick concrete, not cinder blocks with some type of insulation just nailed up to the walls. I want to frame it out and add R-13 insulation.
1. Should I use white wood or PT? if PT, use PT on the whole project or just the floor?
2. How do I connect the frame base to the concrete floor? nails, screws, etc.
I have a two car garage and only use it as a home gym. Never park inside it. I want to remove one of the garage doors and frame it out and a standard 36" exterior door and then finish it off with the matching vinly siding. No electrical or plumbing.
Do I need to go through the county and obtain permits for this? Live in Warren County, VA.
Thanks,
