Q: What are the pros and cons of adding a room above my garage?

• <div><p>A new space over the garage offers several upsides, including added living space, more storage space, and <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/do-additions-add-value.htm">boosted home value from the addition</a>. If you create an attached ADU with the space, you could secure more privacy for you and any guests you have, or even some rental income if you rent the area. However, there are some drawbacks to consider, too, including the high up-front cost, the potential need to increase structural integrity, and size restrictions since garages are smaller than an entire floor of your home.</p></div>

Q: Does an RV garage add value to a home?

• <div><p>Yes, an RV garage can add value to a home. In most cases, homeowners can expect to see a return on investment (ROI) of 65% on a new RV garage. This isn&rsquo;t quite as high as a regular garage, but it still increases the value of your home.</p></div>

Q: Can you extend a garage forward?

• <div><p>You can extend a garage forward. However, the existing layout and the amount of depth you wish to add will determine how much effort and money the task will require. Considerations include moving the garage door and support structures, rebuilding or adding onto the roof, and extending the garage floor and sometimes the foundation underneath.</p></div>

Q: Will converting a carport into a garage add value to your home?

• <div><p>An addition like a <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-garage-add-to-home-value.htm">garage can increase your home value</a> significantly, but it&rsquo;s also quite expensive to convert a carport into a garage. In some cases, you may see just a small boost to home value. With that being said, a carport conversion can add value to your experience as a homeowner long before you sell. Garages are useful for security reasons and storing vehicles, plus they can serve as a convenient place for storage and as workspaces or even living spaces. </p></div>

Q: What is the best type of wood for overhead garage storage?

• <div><p>We recommend plywood and solid wood. Particleboard and MDF (medium-density fiberboard) are often too weak to hold significant loads, and could sag or deform under pressure. Plywood or solid wood are meant to last, and can handle the weight of several large items. If you want to spend a little more for a moisture-resistant material, you can consider using steel.</p></div>

The crew showed up just after nine A.M. We had given notice to residents that all cars must be off the lot by 8:00. The final car cleared the lot abou 15 minutes before the crew arrived so they were able to set up and begin. The area near the street was in deplorable condition. The areas near...

SS Builders were great. The guys all showed up on time (or early) and were very polite and efficient. The roof was replaced very quickly and they were able to make accommodations for a pool party that my daughter was hosting ( the timing was unfortunate but we took the installation date because...

We contracted with Dan at the end of September 2013 to perform repairs to our seawall. Our lake fluctuates in height significantly during the year and we wanted the repairs done in the fall because the lake was low. In fact, in October of that year, the seawall was exposed all the way down and...

We needed a shed in our backyard, but we were not impressed with any available at the usual home improvement stores; they seemed to be not only expensive, but kind of shoddily-built. So we contacted Jeff Pokryfke of Appletree Development in our hometown of Minooka. Jeff came right out to look...
