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>

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>

Q: Where do you start with garage remodels?

• <div><p>The first place you start with any garage remodel, regardless of the project, is with repairs. You want a stable foundation to avoid problems from arising down the road. Once any necessary repairs are addressed, you&rsquo;ll want to move on to layout changes, like installing new walls, running new electric, plumbing, and HVAC to the space, if required, and then finishing work.</p></div>

Q: How do I maintain a remodeled garage?

• <div><p>Keep the space clean, maintain storage systems, and promptly address any water leaks or insulation issues.</p></div>

Q: Do you need permission to convert your garage into an ADU?

• <div><p>Yes, you&rsquo;ll need to get building permits from your local municipality to convert your garage to an ADU. You can get the work covered under a remodeling or general construction permit, which can include permission to run or extend utilities to the space to make it legal. If you also plan on renting the space, you&rsquo;ll need to apply for a rental permit.</p></div>

Provider was only at my home for 10-15 minutes. It did not go well. First of all his body odor was terrible; almost made me sick to my stomach! It was at the end of the work day so I assume he had been working all day but he smelled worse than one day at work. My guess is he had not...
