A total garage remodel may cost some money, especially if you choose high-end cabinets and flooring, but the results will look great!!! Most homeowners have used their garages for car and junk (unused item) storage. Some have even taken the valuable floor space in their garage and turned it into another room. What if you changed it up and decided to make it a “high-end” recreational space; a home gym; or even make it a car restoration studio, if you enjoy working on cars. Whatever you decide to change your garage into, you can create an accessible storage for all the essentials, and still leave room for the cars, (or the at least for the time being). Once you clear the clutter, you can figure out exactly how much space you have available, then you can make the most out of your garage.
Storage Systems
Perforated hardboard– One of the oldest walls systems that still works well today in the garage. The material contains holes in which you can insert metal hooks into to hang items (such as tools, bikes, sporting and exercise equipment).
Modular cabinet systems, includes both cabinets and wall-hung options, (which makes for a flexible storage system), and can accommodate just about everything that most people need to store.
Flooring Options
Concrete is perfect for garage floor, because its hard and durable, and it can carry a tremendous amount of weight without damage. However you can upgrade and improve your concrete floor by painting it with a specialty floor paint, that creates an attractive, custom look.
Brightly colored floor tiles laid in a unique pattern make a strong design statement.
*Once completed your flooring will look exquisite; but it will also depend on how you maintain its cleanliness.
Garage Mechanics
Lighting is simple. Putting up an overhead fluorescent light for general room illumination.
Ventilation on the other hand is not so simple. Your garage ventilation needs are directly proportional to the activities conducted in the space.
*Both will make your garage space livable and inviting.
