Whether a garage or an extra room adds more value depends on several factors, including local market demand, location, and typical buyer preferences. Generally, added living space is highly desirable to most buyers, which can make an extra room more valuable than a traditional garage. The return on investment (ROI) often depends on the utility of the new space; for example, an additional bedroom is typically more valuable than a new living room, and converting a garage into a bedroom with an en-suite bathroom will likely add the most value. A well-designed extra room can also serve specific needs, such as a home office, guest room, or entertainment space. However, adding a garage may be more valuable in areas with limited street parking or harsh climates where protecting a vehicle is a priority.

Yes, you can pressure wash epoxy floors, but you must take precautions to avoid damaging the surface. While most epoxy floors can be cleaned with a mop, you might choose to pressure wash if the floor is stained, has ground-in dirt, or is covered with mold or mildew. To do so safely, first soak any stains or dirty areas with a gentle cleanser. Use a lower pressure setting with a gentle nozzle, such as a green, white, or black tip, or a 45-degree angled tip. Keep the spray nozzle at least 18 inches away from the floor to protect the surface. Using a surface cleaner attachment or a rotary scrubber can also help prevent overspray. Be cautious if using a power washer that heats the water, as the combination of heat and pressure may be too powerful and could damage the epoxy coating.

The amount of paint needed to cover a two-car garage floor depends on the surface area and the product's coverage rate. On average, a standard two-car garage floor measures 400 to 500 square feet. Coverage ranges from 100 to 200 square feet per gallon for epoxy paint, depending on the product and application method. After some quick math, you may need 2 to 5 gallons of epoxy paint with two coats to cover a two-car garage floor. 

You have plenty of options if a standard sectional door does not fit your home. Consider glass, fiberglass, sheet metal, or faux wood doors, or a folding, tilt-up, sliding, carriage, or trackless pivot style. A local garage door installer can match a style to your garage shape and size.
