With the new year comes a list of exciting new projects. I am kicking off 2018 with a basic garage renovation at a new to me place in HB. We are moving in a week.... Basically this is a two car garage with a storage attic/loft above. My long term plans for the garage are tbd. I need to move in and really get use to the space a bit. For this project my goals are the following:
- Keep two parking spaces cleanly
- Cabinentry and workspace must be designed efficiently
- Figure out better lighting
- Make Washer / Dryer area easier for my wife to work with
- Short term bikes will be in garage - planning on building them a shed
I have a shop and now a storage loft for seasonal items. Also my wife has more interior storage for her items that she has had in the garage in the past. One curve ball on this place is the laundry is in the garage - since I like hanging out with my wife - thumbs up -but this does make me design some aspects differently.
Here are some before pictures. Floors have some nice epoxy already laid down. There was some cabinets installed in the garage when I bought the house. They looked really nice but once you have had really nice metal garage cabinents it is hard to substitute. So I ripped them out and am starting blank slate. I have left the laundry sink and area as is so I have clean clothes.
