The Ultimate Guide to Converting Your Garage into a Liveable Space

Enjoy the following pic ideas. Don't forget to leave us a quick comment below.

And please share this post within your social networks.

  • Garages don't have to only be for cars. With more people than ever staying home, rather than going out, extra living space is a necessity!

    If you are looking to expand your liveable space, converting your garage is a great option.

    The garage is already built and attached to the house, which means no pesky additions. There are countless ways to renovate this space into suiting your family's wants and needs.

    Before ripping off your garage door and getting this renovation started there are some things you should consider.

How should you prepare for a garage conversion?

Notes:

  • Start With a Plan In-Hand

    We have curated the ultimate guide to converting your garage into a liveable space to help you navigate the garage renovation process. This will help you formulate a plan that can be addressed with a contrator.

  • A local general contractor should be called before starting your garage conversion to see if your house can handle this dramatic change. Simple things such as HVAC, plumbing, and electricals need to be reviewed before the process can begin.
  • The contractor can also estimate how much the project will cost, which will leave you with fewer financial surprises later on. This estimate is essential for calculating the return on this investment.
    • How Much Do Garage Conversions Cost?

      A full garage conversion can cost up to $50,000 depending on the condition of the garage and the remodel you perform.

    • Garage-to-office conversions typically run about $5,000, whereas garage-to-guest home conversions cost upwards of $22,000.
    • Will the Converted Garage Add Value?

      If you are looking to increase the value of your home, a garage conversion may not be the route to take. In fact, many times a garage conversion decreases a home’s value.

    • This is just a general perception and if you are planning to live in a home for many years to come, the living space will most likely be of more value to you.
    • While not necessarily adding value, a converted garage can often lead to an extra stream of income. Renting out the converted living space is one of the common choices homeowners make.

Do you have enough storage space?

Notes:

  • Remember that when your garage can no longer be used as storage, the items will have to be moved to another location in your home. Some questions to ask yourself are:
    • Do you have room for these items in another space?
    • Will you easily be able to access these items in their new space?
    • If there’s no room in your home, do you have the budget for a backyard shed?
  • These are important questions that determine if your garage may be better used as storage space.
  • Speaking of Sheds:

    Backyard sheds are great storage units for lawn equipment, garden supplies, and if large enough, for garage-like storage such as bikes, auto, and other garage items:

    • Choosing Your Shed:

      One of the most important parts of your backyard or any yard is – storage shed. An important question when shed-hunting is what all options are out there and what do you need it for?

    • Think about things you’ll be using it for. Do you need it to store garden tools or vehicles? With so many of the sheds and metal carport kits available, here are the top picks we’ve compiled for you –

What are the required permits and regulations?

Notes:

  • Depending on where you live, you may need a building permit to convert your garage. These can cost up to $2,000. They cover the main building permit, HVAC installation, electrical wiring, and plumbing.
  • If you are planning on creating a secondary living space, the proper permits may vary as some states have actually outlawed this process. It is best to look into local ordinances before beginning the garage conversion process.

Garage conversion ideas

Notes:

  • Here are three common ideas for converting your garage into a liveable space.
    • Studio Flat:

      Converting your garage into a studio apartment with a separate entrance is a great side-hustle to bring in some extra cash.

    • College students and recent college graduates are always looking for their first “adult” apartment and these are often great options for them.
    • Older family members, such as parents or grandparents, can also use this as a place to stay in order to be closer to you in the event of an emergency.

    • Home Gym:

      With many of us working from home, it can be easy to skip out on the typical after-work gym session. A home gym can make working out much more convenient.

    • Teen Hideaway:

      Teens need their own space. In order to give them this space and privacy while also keeping them close, convert your garage into an awesome teenager hideaway.

    • Your teenagers will love a space that they can call their own, whether they have their bed there or just a couch for lounging and a convenient study space.
    • Garage conversions are a great way to add extra space, create a space for your parents to live, or create the dream family room that you have always wanted.
    • Think of what is most beneficial to your family when beginning the garage conversion process. For more garage conversion ideas, check out this visual below from Angi.
