Total Garage Makeover Made Quick and Easy By Builders Cheltenham

Written By Arnold Jackson

If you want to do a Total Garage Makeover, let the Builders Cheltenham do it for you.

Normally, garage floors are concrete and do not have insulation so you should concentrate on making your floor warmer and more durable, especially when you are considering doing a total garage makeover. You can accomplish this by lining the floor with wood strips and laying plywood on top. Put in mind to use only pressure-treated wood or a protective layer of felt paper to prevent the wood from directly touching the concrete.

Measure the floor. For sloping floor, level the floor by adjusting the joists. For parallel floor, taper them all or prop them using shims. For perpendicular floor to the slope, rip down or shim up each beam.

How to set the wall evenly with the foundation? * Check them out first * Set the walls back from the foundation or protrude in other areas * Get lumber in a size that can extend the frame work beyond the concrete * Notch each end of the furring strip and attach to the face of every wall stud

What to expect during the garage makeover? * Expect to encounter several obstructions when working on the garage walls and floor - wires, pipes, ducts and other snags * If the obstructions are small like wirings or small pipes, you can modify the furring strips so these obstructions can be hidden in the walls. * If the obstruction is big such as a water heater or anything functional that you need to access from time to time, you can build a frame that will enclose the object. * If you want to make provisions for a water heater, build a frame and cover the three sides then make the fourth side removable for easy access.
