Garages are made for practical purposes and your home’s beauty.
The garage used to be the place that stored the family car, the lawnmower and a lot of stuff that was hard to find when you needed it.
The above description may still apply if you have an older home. Possibly you just have a pad where you dream of having a garage. That dream probably includes a beautiful door, a clean floor, new cabinets and lighting that highlights every aspect of the structure.
No matter your situation, the professionals at Mt. Tabor Builders in Clear Spring, MD can help make it better. Below are some things to think about when building or planning an upgrade to your existing garage.
What makes a great garage?
Below is a garage upgrade list from Mt. Tabor‘s representatives.
Maximize storage — Adding cabinets, shelving, pegboards and overhead racks will get items off the floor, organized and easy to find. This approach
removes clutter and frees up space for that “bigger” feeling everyone likes. Locker-style storage is a great way to create a simple drop zone for coats, shoes, and backpacks, especially if your spaces double as a mudroom.
Space for a workstation — A workstation is perfect for DIY projects, gardening and quick home repairs. A dedicated workbench as the centerpiece will come in handy at just the right time. When this station is paired with good lighting and smart tool storage, it makes the space both practical and enjoyable to use.
Upgraded lighting and flooring — Quality lighting instantly improves safety and visibility. This is really appreciated when needing a dry work area in winter. Durable flooring — such as an epoxy coating or even rubber mats— can completely change the look and feel of the space.
Boosted curb appeal — Don’t overlook the outside of your garage. This is important if you take pride in the look of your home or if you’re thinking about its resale value in the future. Little things, like wood accents or bold paint color on the doors, can add character and elevate your home’s overall appearance.
“With just a few updates, your garage can go from cluttered to completely functional and maybe even a space you enjoy spending time in.” — Mt. Tabor representative
