Inexpensive Ways To Revamp Your Garage

​Renovations are a fun way to change and improve any part of the house. However, most homeowners tend to forget about the garage. The garage is an area that you can transform into a workspace or storage area for other items.

Build A Magnet Board
A magnet board is somewhat the same as a corkboard: you place essential items for future use, or you display products for better organization. With a magnet board, you can put equipment or tools for better access. Get a thin sheet metal and use screws to fasten it onto a wall. You can put magnets so that you may post reminders, and also make sure to put it at a level that’s accessible to anyone in the house.

Create Ceiling Cabinets
The garage most likely stores a lot of unused items, but it also wastes a lot of floor space. Purchase large, square cabinets and get the measurements. Then, have a shelving plan according to what design you want. Once you install the ceiling cabinets, make sure to place items that aren’t used that much but are also not that heavy for the container to fall or collapse.

Install Outlets
If you plan on using the garage for future tinkering or making it a workplace to build and fix items, then you’ll need more than one outlet. Most houses only have one outlet, and it makes it harder for homeowners to work efficiently. You can DIY and make several outlets from open studs. However, if the walls have covers, use metal or plastic channels for the wires and an outlet box you can place on the wall.

Create A Garage Wall Storage
A garage wall storage is easy to install because all you need is a drill and a circular saw. With French cleats, you can mount any item or product on the wall. You may also customize the arrangement of the elements according to your preferences. However, make sure that you know and follow instructions when building a garage wall storage to avoid accidents and falling items.

One of the first places that get damaged when there are floods due to storms or heavy rains is the garage. Ensure that you have flood insurance to avoid high costs.
