Garage Additions to House – Attached Garage Additions

Roberts Brothers Construction knows Garage Additions to House or a Garage Renovation can not only raise the utility of your home, but greatly improve the overall home value and set it apart when it comes time to sell.

Our Company has the experience needed to fulfill any Garage Additions request including 2 & 3 Car Garage Additions, adding an Apartment above an existing structure, detached Garage Additions, and more.

Garages come in all shapes and sizes and they can be an attached garage, attached with double doors, detached garage, or have a breezeway. Even if you already have a garage, Roberts Brothers can help you renovate it to a better space.

Roberts Brothers Construction wants to help you build a Garage Additionthat wont break the bank. With a little help in planning & development from usyoull get from a Custom Garage Addition without adding too much to the price tag.

For Storage Solutions, wecan help you keep costs in line by keeping storage solutions simple. A good approach would be to use metal or plastic storage shelves. These have adjustable shelving and come in a variety of sizes so you can fit them where you have the room. Another option, if your Garage Addition will have 12 feet or higher walls, we can install sheets of plywood to build a platform around 6 feet high over part of your parking area that is great to store sporting gear, holiday items, and others.

Roof Structure: Roberts Brothers Construction knows that most Garage Addition Roofs are held up by standard trusses. These are veryeconomical ranging from $88 each in a length that spans a two-car garage but a downfall is theirdesign blocks the storage space youd otherwise have in the attic. For just $25 more per truss, you can switch to storage trusses, which are open in the middle. Or, for an additional upgrade you can get attic trusses, which allow for a boxed-in upstairs thats easy to outfit with shelves or even use as a bonus room.

Garage Doors: Some Garage Addition Plansprovide for only the main car door and, with Attached Garages, a door into the house. Roberts Brothers Construction can help put in a standard door to your yard as well, so you can retrieve a rake without opening the overhead door.

Garage Windows: In our Garage Additions & Installation process we like to include windows, which make the exterior more appealing and bring in natural light. Thats something youll appreciate, especially if youre planning to use part of the garage as a workshop.

Garage Floor Space: Depending on the room, we recommend building the garage wide enough to allow 4 or 5 feet of space between the car and the walls, which gives you clearance to open the doors plus plenty of easily accessed storage. Adding 2 feet to the width significantly increases usable space but may not add dramatically to the cost.

STORAGE SOLUTIONS

Workspace: With our experience & design team, we can help you create a Small Home Workshopon the back wall with a simple 2-foot-deep countertop (standard kitchen depth), that can make a good workbench. To help with cost we recommend using used kitchen cabinets that you can find on popular online listing sites like Craigslist, LetGo or Wallapop. For even more simplicity you can use the space below for boxes or bins on rollers.

Power and Lighting: When building a new Garage Addition, electricity is vital. If we are building a Detached Garage Addition, we will more than likely add a100-amp breaker on the houses main panel, a trench to carry conduit to the garage, and a new sub-panel there. We will also need circuits for outlets, interior and exterior lights, and an automatic door opener. If you are wanting motion or daylight sensors for outside lights, we can help with those as well. Our team of Licensed Master Electricians can help with the necessary permits & installation of the complete Electrical System needed to ensure a proper functioning Electrical System.

Walls and Floors:Roberts Brothers Construction knows a thing or two about meeting code. When it comes to building an Attached Garage Addition, we will need to install 5/8 inch thick drywall on the wall shared to the house and add a Fire Rated Door to meet Fire Code. Installing drywall in the rest of the garage is optional but something we highly recommend.
