4 Top Hercules Detached Garage Uses

Detached garage uses -- some are simple, others are complex. Whatever you decide, it should accommodate your needs in a smart way. Detached garages were once predominant. It wasn't until the 19040s that attached parking structures began to appear in the country. By the 1950s, many households owned two vehicles. And, with that came a more popular need for an attached garage to make it the single-most used entry point. In the 1960s, 60 percent of houses boosted attached structures and by the 200s, that grew to 80 percent. Now, if your home is still one of the few, you can take advantage of some great detached garage uses.

Detached Garage Cleanout Tips

Before you begin the transformation process, you've got to get things in order. That means it starts with a total garage cleanout. The purpose is to completely empty the space. This way, you'll have a blank slate, which means a clearer picture of what it can eventually become.

More and more homeowners are beginning to discover the advantages of a separate garage when they are building a new house or when it's time to rebuild an old garage. One option fueling this trend is the conversion of an attached garage into living space, then building a separate, detached garage for vehicle and tool storage (and everything else garages are great for). --The Spruce.com

When you begin your garage cleanout, resolve to taking out everything inside. (Be sure to check the weekend weather forecast ahead of time.) Then, divide things into two categories: stuff to keep and junk to junk. You can even schedule junk hauling in advance to cut down on the work.

4 Top Hercules Detached Garage Uses

Now, with your detached garage empty, you can start the makeover process. If you're unsure about what to do with it, here are the four top detached garage uses to consider for your property:

• Lawn and garden shed. Let's begin with the easiest (and perhaps most obvious). You can make it into a lawn and garden shed, along with a place to park one or more vehicles. The beauty of this option is it makes the space multifunctional and very helpful.
• Workshop or hobby space. If you're handy with tools or have a favorite hobby, this is a great place to enjoy your labor of love. It's already there so you won't need to build something and it's not difficult to convert. With just some insulation and climate control, it could serve as a workshop or hobby space.
• Automotive restoration garage. Why not supercharge the space to make it into a car restoration hub? This is the least difficult because it doesn't require that much change.
• Dedicated guest suite. For those with gusto, you might want to go for the gold and transform it into an actual guest suite. Of course, this will require carpentry, electrical, and plumbing work. But, it could well be worth the effort.
