World's ugliest garage...the DIY transformation
5 Attachment(s)
I moved into a modest home, ranch style, built in the late 50s...have added two additions to the house, and am almost finished with the garage. It's nothing elaborate, but I spent about $6K to do the entire project. I've always wanted a insulated, heated garage for Wisconsin winters...I thought I'd share my DIY...Here's how it started.

The cabinets are by Whirlpool's Gladiator Garageworks...http://www.gladiatorgw.com/home.jsp |
HUGE difference! Looks great!
On a side note, where in WI are you at? |
Looks like a fun project.

Very nice job................however, you must be very, very young.
You have not accumulated very much junk in your garage. Where are all of the cans of bug spray, lawn mover, hedge clippers, weed eater, the family's outdoor shoes, camping gear, etc? I have so much stuff lining my walls, I figure is would take over 30 wall feet of tall cabinets to hide it all!!!! hilarious |

Did you say, "Snow shovel?" What is a snow shovel?
I don't have one of those!! |
Living in Wisconsin, he should have a snow blower or a quad with a snow plow attachment!
|
very nicely done!

Nice job..love the simple clean look.

What kind of insulation did you put in? |
Great job! A world of difference

What kind of insulation did you put in? Jetta...I have a brick exterior on the two side walls, and an insulated garage door. There is one shared wall with the house. I used fiberglass on the exterior walls, blown cellulose on the ceiling, and installed radiant heating under the floor. |
Nice bedroom ........for the turbo
