Are You Considering Remodeling Your Garage

Remodeling your garage can bring many benefits. Firstly, you can enjoy a nice garage for your cars. Secondly, if you intend to sell your property in New Jersey, having a nice garage will definitely increase the chances of a buyer being interested in your property, and can even raise your property price. There are some things that you will need to think about when remodeling your garage, including the floors, walls, insulation and whether or not you want to replace the entire garage. Are you thinking about remodeling your garage but are unsure how you should get started? Read on to find out more garage remodel ideas!

Install New Garage Floors

One thing that can make a huge difference to the garage is the garage flooring. Nowadays, there are many garage flooring options. For example, concrete, tiles, hardwood, carpet and more. The most common flooring is concrete flooring. If your concrete garage floor has cracks or other damage, you can resurface your floors. To spice up the boring and plain concrete color, you can consider painting it an interesting color. One of the major problems with concrete floors is that it is easy to stain. In order to prevent this, choose to epoxy your floor instead. This can help reduce the possibility of grease seeping into the floor.

To elevate you garage, consider investing in a foam floor mat to park your car on. They can help prevent damage to your concrete garage floors and are very affordable.

Give the Walls a Fresh Coat of Paint

Once you have decided what to do for the floor of your garage, you can proceed on to choose a new wall color. Ensure that the color of your walls and floors are complementary and do not clash. If your walls are currently made out of concrete, you can think whether or not you want to install new garage walls. This can help give your garage a facelift and can even allow you to add insulation to the garage.

Add Insulation to the Garage

No matter what kind of garage you have- whether it is detached or attached, you must not overlook insulation. For attached garages, several rooms have the same floor or ceiling which means that it will be difficult to regulate temperatures in those rooms if the garage constantly allows cooled or heated air to escape. This can negatively impact your energy bills as the air conditioner or heater in those rooms will have to work even harder to achieve a certain temperature.

For detached garages, insulation is important to prevent your cars from getting affected by the extreme temperatures outside. This can help prevent condensation or ice forming within the garage on an extremely cold day.

Choosing to remodel your garage is a smart choice as it can not only save your energy bills, improve your garage’s aesthetics, and safeguard the condition of your car, it will also boost the demand of your NJ home when you choose to sell it.
