Garage Remodeling Ideas - extra space, more storage, & cool ideas

Many people find that a garage offers the perfect environment to house their home office, studio space, or workshop. As many garages are attached or near the home, they can often be easily fitted with the same comforts as a home: heating and cooling, phone wiring, even plumbing.

However, transforming your garage doesn't mean you have to sacrifice your storage area. Many garages today have become multifunctional, allowing for cars, general storage, and a home office or workshop all in the same space.

If you find you will be losing too much storage space in your garage, consider building a small storage shed in your yard to house tools, sporting equipment and seasonal items. A building separate from the house will expand your storage space, allowing you to use the garage in ways that you could not use a shed: electricity or heating, for example.

In addition to remodeling your current garage space, you could also consider an addition above the garage. Raising the roof and adding a room for work space above your existing garage can give you additional space, not to mention increase the value of a home, without changing the floor plan.

    I run my own workshop from my garage. Although it's not always ideal, my running costs are very low, and the journey home takes seconds!

    I used this garage shelving to keep all my tools and materials organised. I also have a dedicated telephone line into the workshop, and a small PC to answer and send emails.

    I recently added a gym to my garage, lots of work done. A nice powerrack and about 400 lobs of weight.

    Garage remodeling, utilizing an existing garage, is a great way to add on to your home. Simply convert your attached garage to living space! The wall structure is already in place, and with some easy modifications and the addition of more walls, doors, and windows, as needed, you can take advantage of space you already have to accommodate your growing family.
