Is it a good idea to turn a garage into a bedroom?

• <div><p>If you're planning to sell your home in the future, buyers have mixed feelings about converted garages. Some people may prefer to have a usable garage instead of an extra bedroom. However, this project could be beneficial for you if you're in need of extra living space. As you weigh the <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/pros-cons-of-insulating-garage.htm">pros and cons of insulating a garage</a>, consider getting a quote for a bedroom addition before you begin a garage conversion to see if adding more square footage could be a better option. </p></div>

Can adding plumbing to my detached garage or shed increase property value?

• <div><p>Adding plumbing to a detached garage or shed can increase the value of your house, especially if the garage is properly insulated, conditioned, and finished so that it can serve as additional living space—as a rental property, for guests, or as an in-law suite. However, it’s unlikely that the cost to add plumbing to a detached garage will increase the property value enough to recoup your investment (and don’t forget: you’ll likely see increased property taxes after the renovation). </p></div>

Q: How long does it take to convert a garage into an ADU?

• <div><p>You can expect a garage conversion project to take an average of between two and four months. Your timeline can vary, though, and it could take six months or longer if you need to run utilities to a detached garage, make structural changes to the building, or carry out foundation and structural repairs before the conversion begins.</p></div>

Q: Will a 20x20 garage fit 2 cars?

• <div><p>The smallest size a standard 2-car garage can be is 20 feet by 20 feet, so at these dimensions, you could reasonably expect to fit two cars inside. However, it&rsquo;s going to be a tight fit, especially if you have larger SUVs or pickup trucks. For smaller cars, 20 x 20 should be plenty for parking and some space to maneuver around the cars. A larger garage size would be better to ensure you have room to open the doors and transport groceries or other items around the cars.</p></div>

Q: How hard is it to turn a carport into a garage?

• <div><p>Depending on your <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-is-a-carport.htm">carport's configuration</a>, foundation or slab condition, and location in relation to the house, turning a carport into a garage has a lot in common with adding an addition to your home. However, you can skip some of the necessities of adding living space to your home, such as fine flooring, trim work, or even drywall or HVAC. It might be possible to DIY the conversion, but it&rsquo;s complicated and potentially dangerous work, so it&rsquo;s best left to the professionals. </p></div>

We have used Fillo Painting for several years. We use them both for our investment properties as well as our personal home. They are great painters but have expanded into other areas of construction and have performed well for us there too. I would highly recommend them.
