Garage Upgrades
The insides of many garages have a rough-in finish of exposed wood framing. Many people want the inside of their garage to be finished out with more cabinets and storage solutions. Insulating your garage walls, replacing your garage doors, finishing the interior walls with drywall and various cabinet solutions are all options for you. In terms of storage, you have solutions where you can have built in cabinets or you can go with self-standing shelving. Storing tools can also be with cabinets and pegboards or with movable storage cabinets. Sports equipment is another consideration for various storage options.
