Is a garage extension worth it?

• <div><p>A garage extension makes sense if you need more room to work, store your belongings, or park another vehicle. It’s also a smart financial move.

Do you need drywall over insulation in a garage?

• <div><p>You do not need to drywall over most types of garage insulation. However, doing so can increase noise reduction, make the space more attractive, and keep children and pets from touching harmful fiberglass insulation. If you’re using cellulose or some other <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/blown-in-insulation.htm">type of blown-in insulation</a> (fiberglass and mineral wool are common), you will need drywall to contain the insulation material.</p></div>
