Summary: While adding a garage is one thing, turning a garage into a living area is one of the least expensive ways to significantly increase the amount of space in your house.
Numerous studies have found that the garage is the untidiest place in the house. Remodeling a garage is a traditional way to create more space in a home. A garage conversion is a terrific method to increase space in your home without taking up additional land. Conversion just requires the creation of walls, flooring, and other components that define an interior space because the exterior structure is already constructed. Before de-cluttering, empty the garage of everything. Reseal and sweep the floor with proper sanding and refinishing Oshawa. Discard broken objects, household items containing expired chemicals, and stuff you haven’t handled in the previous two years, and start the preparation task.
Garage floors can have unsightly cracks and oil and grease stains. Applying a clean epoxy coating to the garage floor will make a big difference in the appearance and feel of your garage in a matter of hours. An additional choice is ridged, interlocking hardwood flooring Oshawa, particularly for garage floors that are too oily for epoxy coating. Put your equipment in a small locker room if your family plays sports, and set up cubbies if you have a large family with lots of personal belongings.
It may be necessary to disregard how the converted garage will appear from the outside in order to concentrate on the interior design. Working with an architect has several benefits, one of which is that they can assist you in integrating the garage conversion with the exterior of the house. This may occasionally require significantly changing the house fascia to match the wall covering the garage door opening. You can also apply a coat of house painting Oshawa to enhance the exterior appeal of your property.
There’s nothing that says “garage conversion” louder than a driveway leading to an empty wall. Adjust the driveway so that it ends before the garage if you choose to remove the garage door. To create a planting bed for flowers or shrubs, break up the final few feet of concrete or remove any brick and install a fence and deck Oshawa to add elegance. There is a noticeable separation between the driveway and the garage even with this small gap.
Sometimes garage walls are constructed without any drywall or insulation. You should still insulate the garage and add a basic layer of drywall even if you’re not turning it into a living area.
