An attached garage can be a lifesaver during cold winters, providing a sheltered space for your vehicle in the summers and, of course, additional storage and square footage to work with!
Before starting construction, check local zoning and permit requirements. This is crucial as Guelph City Hall can be tricky to navigate sometimes.
When designing, consider whether you want a single or double garage and what features will be most useful, such as built-in storage or even a workspace.
Insulating the garage walls and ceiling can make the space more comfortable year-round, especially if it’s attached to the home.
A slight slope in the floor will allow any melted snow from your car to drain safely.
Installing weatherstripping around the door will help seal out drafts, keeping the garage warmer in winter and cooler in summer. Adding a garage heater is also an option for added warmth.
