If your garage needs an update or you need a home addition, new construction is the most effective option. Adding a separate, detached garage to your property has many benefits for your lifestyle and the value of your home. Here’s what you need to know to make a decision.

Why Plan New Construction of a Detached Garage

1. Secluded Space

When your garage is separate from your house, it creates a new, private work area. If you like to use your garage as a workshop to repair your car or do woodworking, a separate garage gives you room to spread out your projects. It also means the noise of power tools or a car engine won’t disturb your loved ones in the house.

2. Safety

Whenever your car is running, it produces fumes. These can lower your air quality if they get into the house. Driving in and out of an attached garage or idling inside can sometimes lead to health issues, even with the garage door open.

If your garage is detached, the fumes can’t seep into the house, so your air will stay fresh and safe. Also, if you store hazardous materials like gasoline, chemical cleaners, and paint in your garage, having a separate building makes the main house safer from fire and other hazards.

3. Room for a Home Addition

If you currently have an attached garage and plan new construction for a detached one, that space in your house is now up for grabs. Depending on its size, that garage could become a new bedroom, an office, a hobby room, a den, or even a generous master suite.

Finishing the area will increase your home’s square footage, and will also allow you to replace the garage door with a more attractive facade, both of which increase your home’s value.
