Garage Makeover

Finished GarageWe are a little late posting these photos, but we couldn’t be happier. Back in rainy January we decided to do a little cleanup in the garage until it was dry enough to work on the yard. For good or bad, the rainy weather didn’t last long and the garage project lingered.

Our plan was a quick insulate and drywall project. This would help with appearance and temperature management. Things were going pretty quickly until we got to the mudding and taping. That really slowed us down. But once the yard work was done, we put our full concentration on the garage. We finished the drywall and then hopeful that the epoxy will make the floors a little easier to keep clean. It was easy to apply, although we had to get up at 5 in the morning to do it. Of course the week we wanted to finish the garage we were in the middle of a heatwave and the paint sets up very quickly in high heat. At 5 in the morning we were at 72* so we had an hour and a half to mix and apply the epoxy. We finished in just about an hour.

Next up was putting everything back in the room. Julie got out the graph paper and drew up the room and each of the items that needed to go into the garage. With a little bit of time and playing around we were able to find room for all the tools and bikes and stuff and still have a little bit of room for Bill’s car.

We still have one picture to take, the one with Bill’s car in the garage, but it looks so nice and clean right now.
