How to convert a garage into a room - DIY transformation
Vložit
- čas přidán 27. 08. 2019
- This is how to turn a garage into an extra room. This DIY transformation is simple to do and provides an extra room in the house for growing families. We used timber to frame out the brick pillars and then attached the plasterboard / drywall to the bricks. We also built an internal wall to seal off the room and provide a small storage area when the garage door is open.

This is a very low cost way of doing it. For people asking I'd say under £500. Good job man 👍🏽
You make it look so easy!!! Inspiring to do myself...I want to renovate my garage and believe I can do it. But I would need the tools to. Thanks for a great video and tips.
Great idea with the roller door storage . A great option than replacing with glass.
I like that they kept the garage door and made a functional space as well. What I hate most about garage conversions is the exterior and the driveway going up to a wall, leaving the garage door makes it look aesthetically pleasing and natural to the house’s exterior
Cheers bill you are definitely invited to the underground garage rave in my newly renovated garage sesh den
If only a conversion were that simple in the UK. There's so many regulations around insulation, access, heating, etc, etc, that it makes is much harder. Glad you or the customer were happy.
Nathan Brown The regulations here are quite strict too. I could be wrong but I’m assuming that they were the customer and that the planned conversion wasn’t certified as a habitable area prior to commencement.
it looks simple but at same time turned out really NICE 👍🏼 👍🏼
LOL you came in with so much energy in your introduction i nearly jumped 😅
🤣🤣🤣🤣
love the storage behind the wall and the barage door brilliant idea.
It may not be as correct as it should be but it does give insight into the art of taking on this particular type of project. I'm sure there's plenty of people who could benefit from the video.
A vapour barrier should be installed along with your insulation. (It’s a special plastic sheet, different mil. thickness available). Check the placement of the vapour barrier based on you climate. The vapour barrier should be installed properly around vents and sealed using special tape to maintain air impenetrability.
The installation didn’t meet any building code I’m familiar with.
I'm a student of CZcams DIY channels. This job looked like something a homeowner would do instead of a pro. How could they put drywall in front of the garage door with no plywood or insulation. And the garage door will probably get water underneath. They didn't try to make any attempts to waterproof that opening. Maybe the homeowner gave instructions to do a quick and cheap job.
Awesome job thanks for putting this together made the job feel a lot more easier
I love your videos. Thank you
Legend mate, thanks!
Thanks for this video - I am wanting to add cabinets to my garage but couldn’t figure out how to add the studs in between the brick piers!
Do you have a detailed video on how you finished the opposite side of the wall, that is now the storage area to prevent moisture from ruining the barrier wall?
I think you just blew their mind... haha
Where’s the vapour barrier?
Moisture won't affect the Barrier wall as there will be so much ventilation.
Great watch, looks fantastic 👌
Awesome vid mate!
Brilliant mate, great video
Quick,easy!DIY just astonishing.

Good job lads. Looks great.
well done mate
Awesome work!
I have learned a lot watching
Warm humid air from the inside will want to go to cold surfaces (the brick wall) in the wall. Is there a ventilated air-gap behind the insulation?
You make it look so easy. I assume you worked in the US with your use of the term baseboards instead of skirting boards.
Did anyone else notice the cowboy job of plastering around the PIR security sensor in the top corner of the room? Surely you would take that down and rewire it....
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
What about connecting a vent for a/c or heat?
Amazing job guys - thinking of doing this with a garage myself and it's so useful to see it done step my step. A lot of graft here but absolutely worth it in the end - well done.
Ive had mine boarded with insulation board but theyve unsulated behind the boards..are boards alone enough to insulate
This is so awesome- thanks so much you made it look so easy.
where do you get the metal bars to frame where the garage is?
Aren’t you supposed to start top from bottom when hanging drywall?
THANKS MATE
Awesome 👍👋👋👋👋👋👋👋👋
You are amazing!
I like the work put into this project! Personally I would have left the brick columns exposed to separate the drywall sheets to add/keep some aesthetic to the room but it looks great nonetheless!

What about permits and how to you stop water coming in as the new bedroom floor is not higher - water from outside will seep through from the roller door??
Brilliant.
incredible; very good; keep it up; finally 'THANKS'
Great stuff. What about damp proofing?
Bill, can you upload any video related to filling holes in the door and door frame after removal of locks from door, door hinges, using a method like Dutchman use please. Thank you for sharing all your videos with us.
Good work
Vapour barrier? I would imaging the garage door alone would not provide much protection. Do you have a video showing how this achieved?
Nice!
Amazing
good job
Is this done using a permit so you can add the extra sq ft to the house?
thanks for the vid. although not exactly what i was looking for. it was def. entertaining to watch! keep it up!!
Insidious Gaming hi
quick question as I don't know. Why didnt you use a moisture membrane? I've seen a few people use them and I'm not sure why its needed. Thanks, just doing my research before I start doing some work. great video Thumbs up
30 seconds in and I've seen you throw your hand out more times than I've seen all year in all the other videos I've watched
very cool im doing this to my home too how much did it cost.
Kevin Naderi how much approximately should we pay for this service?
I posted here since he liked your comment
Yeah man answer the guy
About tree fiddy.
@@greasytacomeat9046 🤣🤣 got damn loch ness monster
All that effort to insulate has gone to waste because of the thermal bridge between the brick turrets and the plaster board 🤦🏻♂️
Should’ve built an independent stud wall 10mm off of the brick work and insulated that. Would’ve shrunk your room a little but would’ve been a more sound option.
Unfortunately this was the only way to maximize space in this room. The insulation was installed for temperature control as well as acoustic. considering the plasterboard is being installed directly on the brick wall , the insulation was installed to provide as much insulation as possible with this method used 👍
The ol Thermal Bridge hey......
Anthony Harper - I was just about say that. Brick is a horrible insulator. He could have extended the stud wall and put a rigid foam board creating a vapor/draft barrier. Guess they do it differently "down under".
@@dereknyc4402 Superquilt would have been perfect and hardly eat up any additional space.
Some people dont consider that water can travel through brick. Brick is not waterproof it actually soaks up water like a sponge. So, attaching plaster board directly to it as others already mentioned is not a good idea. If you find you have done this already, go paint the outside of the brick with waterproofing or render the outside.
Hi I’m wanting to do this to my garage for teenage sons, how much is all materials, my garage is the same size & same window, but I also have a internal window from the lounge room, how could I make that into a door as I only have the garage doors either side to access the garage.. great work by the way, me and my sons could easily do this together..
no plastering on the plaster board?
Wow 🤩
How about with a separate entrance hallway
Thanks
Amazing Vid, I enjoyed watching it. You guys are Great! Thanks.
👍👍👍
What supplies did you use to build your wall? Thank you!
Thats great job done how much it cost?
I want to do the same
I actually need to do this. we just bought our house and the the garage is a room....however we want to take the garage door down. So i like the idea of building this wall. What do you recommend on the outside? Should we just leave it? Or maybe you can do a video on taking out the garage door and replacing it with siding!
Leaving the garage door is a personal preference as many people choose to leave it for the purpose of resale. If you ever wanted to turn the room back into a garage it’s much easier and quicker to do 👍
Billshowto we want to remove it. It’s a small space, and we just bought this house. We just want it to look like it’s part of the house and not like it “used to be a garage” . Thank you for this video!
Hi Bill, Great video on this project, How would you attempt this if the garage you wish to reno doesn’t have a roller door but a flip up front garage door and a roller door on the back?
Would love your input. Thank you
Very nice mate, great video!
Glad you enjoyed it 👍
You literally have the same hand jester for 10 minutes 😆
Superb video mate - looks awesome!
Thanks👍
@@billshowtohow to contact you for projects
I'm going to start a project similar to this. What does you guys put on the floor? I've currently got bare concrete. Also was the material 3x2 or 4x2?
To the walls have to be straight when building a frame or does it matter
how much do you charge to put up a internal wall between garage door
At the 6:07 mark whats the point of putting those spots of paint? Those circles of paint next to each other as seen at 6:12
That was where we patched the screw locations👍
Are you darth vader doing the chocking thing?
What about ventilation... any a/c? Ya girl lives in FL. This definitely wouldn't work without air.
A/c was installed afterwards 👍
Can you do this with a roof? How would you do the roof on the room. seems overwhelming. I just bought a house and need to do this in 2 weeks
Since you converted a garage into a room, how do you install an a/c vent to cool down the room?
Youd have to knock out a portion of the wall and install a split system, very pricey. That's why builders really push cooling when you build a house as it's really costly to do later.
Excellent, thanks 👍
Awesome loved it
I would love to do something like this, but I've never learned the skills required to do so. I need something new and a project to work on. If any one could shout my way how to get started it'd be much appreciated!
Hey bro How much would this cost to do to my garage plus Labor??? And if you can recommend someone to do this job, thanks
A single brick skin conversion wouldn't pass code in the UK as a habitable room. You will have moisture and mold problems after some rain. You'd also have problems selling your property without the building regs sign off.
Can you do a video on changing the main water valve..my knob is bent an wont turn...an my pipe lays flush on the ground so I’m not sure how to cut it an solder a new ball valve
No vapour barrier?
How much did this cost to do?
Tiling: no floor insulation or dpm, and most garage floors slope towards the door for drainage. Did you just tile the floor "as is"?
I noticed that too. I was waiting for a raised floor to go in at the end, but he just left it with a step up to get to the house. Bit of a bodge
thats how it is in Australia, why would you need to insulate the floor? its on a slab the rest of the house is on the exact same slab with nothing under the tiles, just straight onto the slab
@@ImShiftehh I guess you forgot about capillary action? It may not get cold in Australia, but I bet you must have some rain there at some point.
Ironbuket I’m not going to bother arguing with you because everything they did in this video is literally how every single new house is built. Yes I understand in America I’ve seen in some videos they put dimple mats ect under tiles/flooring but all I can speak on is how it’s done here. Slab / mud / tiles that’s it nothing else
Ironbuket and I don’t get OP is saying about drainage. Yes the floor slopes towards the door. From back to front. So why would you have to do anything about drainage ? It’s not as if the back is lower then the front. So unless you on the bottom of a hill there’s no chance any water is getting close
What insulation do you need for the garage slab
How long you reckon
How much will it be if ask someone to do it?
I'm curious what it would cost me to do something like this ?
More than it cost him, as you would probably want to do it properly?
Great video!
How would you deal with doing this project with a roller door at back and a flip garage door at the front? Would it work & what adjustments do you suggest? 🤷♀️ Thank you
Remove the roller make windows finish with wood
What is the name of metal he put up for garage
how much did this cost you?
Why didn’t you skim the plasterboards??
Come do ours? Nice work!
9:40 Is that a step down into the room? Could insulate the floor a bit and put in radiant floor heat. :-D
3:16 What kind of climate is this in? That doesn't seem like a well enough insulated room. Though, that might depend on your location.
This looks like Sydney or Melbourne - temperature extremes aren’t too bad here. Us aussies are way behind the euro building standards anyway
chrisfi3d C Melbourne winters can be pretty extreme, to be fair.
Great video, my garage is in a state any advice on how to start the transformation?
Rent a skip and chuck out everything you can live without
where are you located? please come help me
What would you do about power to the room?
5:30 Any concerns about covering up a means of egress for the house?
Maybe for size it only needs one door ? Per square foot I barely started learning did you ever find the answer ?
Did you guys build a restroom and kitchen also?
Ceo of hand waving
