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: Can I remodel a garage myself?

• <div><p>DIY is possible for minor updates. Professional services ensure proper insulation, wiring, and structural changes.</p></div>

Q: Do you need planning permission to change a garage door to a normal door?

• <div><p>In most cases, you do not need planning permission to change a garage door to a normal door, unless a specific restriction is present on your home&rsquo;s deed. If you&rsquo;re changing the door because you are trying to convert the garage into a living space, you will need to work with building control for proper signoffs to ensure your conversion meets all of the necessary construction standards. </p></div>

Q: Is renovating a garage worth it?

• <div><p>On average, you&rsquo;re looking at an<b> </b>ROI of around 80% for a garage remodel, so it&rsquo;s very often a worthwhile investment. However, the utility and value your project adds will have a major impact on that number. For example, doing a basic remodel and just maintaining your garage&rsquo;s current purpose will add minimal value, but converting it to living space might make your home significantly more appealing to some buyers.</p></div>

"It's been a few weeks since Scott and Chase installed my closet system. Scott came over to measure and give me a bid. He listened to what I wanted and provided me with a draft of exactly what I'd asked for. He provided the dimensions/measurements and draft drawings, even before I accepted the proposal. I couldn't be happier with the results. I have much more space. After the install, I realized one of the hanging rods was just out of my reach. Scott was back the next morning to lower it and even installed another shelf above the rod. I highly recommend this business for closet systems. "
