Ideas for Finishing Your Garage

Looking for more room in your Ann Arbor home, but not sure if you’re ready to shoulder the costs of building an addition? Well, you may not have to. Perhaps it’s time to consider finishing your garage. One of the most overlooked areas in a home, your garage may be the perfect solution to your need of obtaining more space and functionality.

Homeowners have transformed their garages into spaces such as:

• Extra Bedroom
• Home Office
• Game Room
• Music Studio
• Bars
• Home Gyms
• Home Theatre Room
• Storage Areas
• Woodworking Studio/Workshop

How you approach the project of finishing your garage depends on if it is an attached or detached structure. An attached garage may require a special type of drywall on the common wall it shares with your home. A detached garage will most surely require additional insulation. It’s also a good idea to consider adding additional electrical outlets when finishing your garage, especially if the desired finished space will be a home office, home theater room or woodworking studio.

Maybe you just want to organize your garage by adding organizational shelving and storage cabinets. Applying an epoxy finish with a texture to your garage floor can help keep a newly-organized garage clean by resisting oil stains from a leaky vehicle.
