    Good choice, when you dismember your victims the blood will blend right in.

    Quick update to my earlier post.
    We have a 24 X 20 garage with 10 feet ceiling. Builder had done the mudding an taping (just one coat).
    We asked for 6' of Slat wall on all three walls (minus the area leading upto stairs) and L shape overhead storage.
    We got quotes from three different places,
    1) Specialized Garage is at $9100
    2) Garage Living is at 20% higher than Specialized Garage
    3) Storewall is about 30% higher than the Specialized Garage

    Criminal. That’s unreasonably high.

    That does seem awfully high!

    The slat wall and storage, was there any special requests with that? like finished a certain way, accessories, etc...?

    Nothing special. Just two colors. No accessories.
    Metal Overhead storage.
    Here is the break down of the quote from Specialized Garage,
    Wall finishing (Garage Grade) - $ 2375
    Slatwall Including Installation - $ 4740
    Overhead Storage Rack - $ 1560

    I am completely new to this. What do you guys think is reasonable?

    That makes more sense. Wall finishing includes insulation?

    Nope No insulation. Already the dray wall and everything is done by the builder. One coat of mudding a taping also done.
    So the finishing includes may be another coat of mudding and sanding. Only 5 ' of the walls and Ceiling.
    That wall finishing includes painting.

    That sounds much more in line to me. Maybe a little high but such are the times.

    @ganesh I just got quotes from the same 3 companies and found it pretty similar to your price differences.

    Has anyone used Specialized Garage? How are they?

    @s2k_boi at least they are consistent
    That was my question as well has anyone dealt with Specialized Garage?
    I am Leaning towards using Garage Living however I am going to outsource the Finishing of the Garage to some one else.

    Those slat wall prices seem nuts to me, we just run a single Rubbermaid Fast-Track rail with attachments for ~$100.

    @s2k_boi have you made a decision on whom you are going with for the garage?
    We picked Garageliving , however I am having issues with how responsive they are with my queries. I asked them to revise the drawings a bit and asked them to confirm the install dates that was day and a half ago . No follow up at all.

    @ganesh I have made revisions with Specialized Garage and they have been good. They even held a spot for me for June install. Just have to finalize plans.

    However, Garage Living was responsive on revisions for me too but the only reason I am going with Specialized Garage is because I got to look at my buddies place and they did the work last year for him.

    Thanks for the update.
    If you have some pics from your buddies place can you share them ?
    thanks

    Great deal on a 8 piece organizer/work bench. I’m very tempted but I’m also too lazy to clean out my garage to make room for it
