Hello group members,
I'm new to DIY and have set myself the task of renovating the interior of my outside garage. I figure I can make my mistakes in there whilst using it to learn what I'm doing as I go along.
What I'm trying to do is to batten the walls and roof, insulate and board out all over effectively making it into a regular "room". I've not thought about the floor yet. One end will have gym equipment and at the other end I intend to have workbench and storage.
I've never done anything like this and have so many questions rattling around my head but wanted some general advice on how to approach this in stages, and which stage to do first etc. I had thought I would find this on YouTube as I can't be the first to do this, but I've searched as best I can and can't find any videos going end to end.
The plan in my head is this:
- Batten the walls and roof ready for boarding
- Insulate walls and roof
- Board out with something (do you use plasterboard in a garage?)
A couple of pictures to show you what I am working with:
I'd just to like to get the conversation going about how to start here.
Thanks in advance, Steve
