Q: Are prefabricated garages worth it?

• <div><p>A prefab, or prefabricated garage, requires far less construction work than one with a foundation and frame, but it&rsquo;s not nearly as desirable and may not be a worthwhile option. A prefabricated garage won&rsquo;t be as durable or long-lasting, and it doesn&rsquo;t provide the same protection for your belongings and vehicles. Plus, you can use a standard garage for more uses&mdash;like living space&mdash;whereas a prefab garage only serves as a space for storage. Lastly, building a traditional garage will add to your home value, while a prefab garage usually won&rsquo;t.</p></div>

Q: Is it cheaper to build or buy overhead garage shelving?

• <div><p>The <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-do-garage-storage-systems-cost.htm">cost of garage storage systems</a> is, on average, between <b>$615 and $2,635</b>. A <a href="https://www.angi.com/companylist/home-and-garage-organization.htm">garage organizing specialist</a> usually charges between <b>$55 and $75 per hour</b>, so completing this project on your own can save you a significant chunk of change. That said, hiring a professional can save you time, and they can help create a perfect system for your items.</p></div>

Q: Should I build a garage myself?

• <div><p>If you're handy, you may want to take on building a garage as a do-it-yourself project. However, whether it's a good idea to build a garage on your own or not depends on the type of structure you want to build and local permitting laws. If you want to work with a pre-fab structure, you may be able to DIY. However, if laying a foundation is involved, you're better off working with a professional builder.</p></div>

Q: What is the best material for building a garage?

• <div><p>Wood, steel, fiberglass, and aluminum are among the top building materials for a garage. Wood is highly customizable, naturally insulative, and durable in mild climates but can be expensive. Steel is lightweight, low-maintenance, and cost-effective, but it&rsquo;s susceptible to rust. Fiberglass is low-maintenance and doesn&rsquo;t shrink or expand in changing temperatures, but it can become brittle and crack from prolonged high winds and sun exposure. </p><p>Unlike steel, aluminum isn&rsquo;t susceptible to rust and is low-maintenance, but its ultra-light weight makes it less durable than some materials, and it&rsquo;s susceptible to saltwater damage, making it a poor choice for coastal homes.</p></div>

Q: Does adding a garage apartment add value to your home?

• <div><p>Yes, a garage apartment is generally considered a valuable asset as long as the new structure has been legally built. It's important to weigh the cost to build a garage with an apartment against the<a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/garage-conversions-add-valuable-living-space.htm"> cost to convert a garage to living space</a> if you already have a garage.</p></div>
