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: How much does it cost to convert a carport into a garage?

• <div><p>The <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-it-cost-convert-carport-garage.htm">cost to convert a carport into a garage</a> averages about<b> $22,000</b>, ranging from about <b>$15,000 and $55,000</b>. Additional cost factors to consider include size, time of year, and how much of the carport you can reuse. Other cost factors include the kinds and amounts of materials used, such as:</p><ul><li><p>Add insulation: $1 per square foot</p></li><li><p>Add drywall: $1&ndash;$3 per square foot</p></li><li><p>Add window: $450&ndash;$2,000 per window</p></li><li><p>Add outlets: $75&ndash;$500</p></li><li><p>Add garage door: $250&ndash;$11,200</p></li><li><p>Enclose framing: $5&ndash;$13 per square foot</p></li><li><p>Replace roofing: $1,000&ndash;$2,000</p></li></ul><p></p></div>

Q: Is it less expensive to build a garage or buy a kit?

• <div><p>It&rsquo;s typically less expensive to buy a garage-building kit than to build a garage from scratch if you&rsquo;re supplying all the labor. However, unless you are an experienced builder, you will still need to hire pros to install the foundation, concrete floor, and add electrical and plumbing to your garage kit. In that case, it&rsquo;s worth the investment to build a garage through a <a href="https://www.angi.com/nearme/garage-builders/">local garage builder</a> who can coordinate the hiring of other necessary pros.</p></div>

Q: Should a new garage with an apartment be attached or detached from the home?

• <div><p>This is a matter of personal preference. However, building a detached structure is generally considered better if you intend to rent out the new space. The advantage to going with an attached garage addition is that you may pay less for plumbing, HVAC, and other features because you can use the existing systems from your home to carry over piping and wires.</p></div>

Q: How do different aspects of a garage influence installation expenses?

• <div><p>Costs depend on the size of the garage, material quality, and additional features like lighting or workbenches.</p></div>
