Q: What is the least expensive way to convert a garage to a living space?

• <div><p>The least expensive way to convert a garage to a living space is to perform as much of the work yourself as possible, using materials you can acquire at discount prices, and avoiding making structural changes to the building. While you can&rsquo;t control what type of garage already exists on your property, converting a detached garage to living space will cost 20% to 30% more, so going with an attached garage conversion will save quite a bit.</p></div>

Q: What are the dangers of using budget garage flooring products?

• <div><p>As with anything you buy, be wary of prices that seem too good to be true. Some low-cost flooring products can contain chemicals that release harmful VOCs (volatile organic compounds) in the form of fumes that can be inhaled or dust that can cause skin conditions.</p><p>Even good-quality products can be dangerous for DIY-ers who don&rsquo;t take proper precautions. Always carefully read manufacturer instructions and wear the recommended protective gear when working with paints and other chemicals. You can also hire a <a href="https://www.angi.com/nearme/garage-floor-coatings/">local garage flooring pro</a> with the experience and equipment needed to perform the installation safely with no lingering fumes or debris.</p></div>

Q: Do I need an architect to build a room above my garage?

• <div><p>As with most large-scale home renovation projects, <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/do-you-need-an-architect-for-addition.htm">you&rsquo;ll need an architect</a> to map out the exact layout and specs of your above-garage room, which is required in many municipalities. Some general contractors will serve as your architect, or they may bring on a residential architect to assist with the plans. </p></div>

Q: How much does it cost to turn a garage into a gym?

• <div><p>The average cost to remodel your garage into a home gym is about <b>$800</b>, ranging from <b>$200 to $6,000</b>, depending on the equipment and the extent of the conversion. Some common <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/garage-home-gym-ideas.htm">home garage gym ideas</a> include insulating the walls, covering the concrete flooring, adding HVAC capacity, adding bright lighting, and installing a gym organization system.</p></div>

Q: What features should be included in a new garage design?

• <div><p>Adequate storage, workspaces, and energy-efficient systems are key considerations.</p></div>

Angus did a great job! He was very prompt and professional. He was happy to do the work and didn’t let our messy garage deter him at all. He happily put in some long hours to get the job done. We would hire him for anything electrical in the future.
