Have you been thinking about building a new garage this year? If so, then you should definitely make sure that you have your garage planned out well in advance. That way, you can ensure that the space is exactly the way you want it. Here are a few tips when it comes to ensuring that your garage space is able to accommodate your current and future needs.
List Your Needs and Wants Separately
Before building the new garage, you should list out what you need from a garage, and what you want from a garage. Things can be set up differently if all you want is a garage for car and box storage. However, if you have more uses for your garage in mind, then you want to list these out. For example, do you want a workbench? Then this needs to be added into the footprint of the garage. Other things you may need in your garage include:
- Shelves for storage
- A loft to hold tools or toys
- Specialized lights
- A gardening bench
- An entertaining area for sports events
- And more!
Make sure you also list a few things that you want out of the garage. Now is the time to figure out what fun things could be added in your garage to spoil yourself. It is often cheaper and easier to add in niceties now than it will be to add them in later. For example, if you want a drain or water spigot in the garage, adding it now would be easier than when the garage is fully assembled.
