Adding a garage addition is no small task. A lot goes into building the perfect garage, and the experts at Garage Pros in Grunthal south of Winnipeg have the tools and the know-how to get it done.
However, before embarking on your project, there are five things you should consider before building a garage addition.
Zoning laws & permits
In most cases, you require a building permit to build any carpool structure. Whether detached or attached to another structure, such as a house. Knowing what zoning laws exist where you live and what permissions are required is a vital first step in building your garage. Additional permits may be required if electrical work is done on your garage.
Your municipality will also require a building permit for your garage addition. This permit application documentation often includes a site plan, building plan, design, owner’s statement, and other forms. Garage Pros will help provide the documentation required, submit your application, and obtain the permit for your building project.
Purpose
Another thing to consider when building your garage is its full intended purpose. For example, do you plan to only store your vehicles, or do you need space for your hobbies or tools? Will your garage double as a workshop? Having an idea of what you want in your build helps you determine what unique elements you will need. Learn more about optimizing your garage space!
Car size
Ventilation
You may not think ventilation is essential in a garage. After all, you can just open the doors when starting your car in the winter. However, while this warms your car up, it releases harmful toxins. Having good ventilation will allow these toxins to vent out of your garage. Ventilation is especially key if you plan on using the garage as a workshop.
Deciding on a plan
The final element of the garage building process is deciding on your ideal garage plan. There are many options when it comes to plans for a new garage. If you consider everything above, you have an idea of what you need to include. Meeting with the experts at Garage Pros is the first step in developing your perfect garage plan.
