Q: Is it cheaper to buy or build garage shelves?

• <div><p>It&rsquo;s much less expensive to build your own garage shelves, and you&rsquo;ll still get stable, long-lasting, and sharp-looking shelves. <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-do-garage-storage-systems-cost.htm">Garage storage systems cost</a> between <b>$615 and $2,635</b>, with the national average of about <b>$1,455</b>. Building DIY garage shelves typically costs less than <b>$500</b>, and the quality of a DIY garage shelving unit will almost always be higher than what you could buy premade for the equivalent price.</p></div>

Q: How much does it cost to build a garage?

• <div><p>Building a garage costs between <b>$16,500</b> <b>and</b> <b>$41,000</b>, but most homeowners pay between <b>$5,000</b> <b>and</b> <b>$70,000</b>. The enormous range in costs is due to a wide variety of sizes and materials, as well as certain projects requiring specialized labor. Some good news is that if you ever sell or refinance your home, you can often recoup the cost of a garage install. </p></div>

Q: What time of year is best to build a garage?

• <div><p>It&rsquo;s usually best to build a garage in the summer or fall, with most homeowners preferring the fall. Winter might bring frozen ground that can make excavating and pouring a foundation a challenge, and spring tends to bring more rainfall, which can delay the building process. Most homeowners who DIY portions of their garage build prefer fall over summer, as the temperature is usually cooler and more conducive to the strenuous work required to build the structure. </p></div>

Q: How much does a garage bump out cost?

• <div><p>A <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/garage-bump-out-addition.htm">garage bump-out</a> is a small addition that extends the size of the garage, usually by just a few feet. Homeowners might install bump-outs to store lawn equipment, sporting gear, holiday decorations, and more. Because you&rsquo;re not changing the existing garage structure as much, a bump-out isn&rsquo;t as expensive or labor intensive as a full-blown garage extension. Expect to pay around $1,800&ndash;$6,000 for 2-by-10-foot bump-out (and more for larger additions).</p><p> </p></div>

Q: What adds more value, a garage or extra room?

• <div><p>It depends on a lot of factors, but generally speaking, added living space is more desirable to most buyers, which means an extra room will be more valuable than a traditional garage. The utility of the new space will determine how much ROI you&rsquo;ll see. An additional bedroom will generally be more valuable than a living room or family room, and converting your garage to a bedroom with a bathroom will likely add the most value.</p></div>
