Insulating 3 car garage/shed
Page 1 of 1
I want to do this so that during summer I can put air con on in there and have people over. My house is not huge so I see this as a logical choice for extra living space. I won't be using it to store any vehicles as there is enough covered areas to house a couple of cars.
I have had a couple of builders come out and look at what I want to do but have never received a quote from anyone. The walls are plain metal walls.
I want to keep the roof area open. Ignore the contents in the area.
This is one of the ends, the projector screen will be going back on the wall
The back wall has power & data outlets and TVs will also be going back on this wall
The other end has a bench along the enter end, although it is a nice and sturdy bench I'm happy for it to be removed if required.
The other wall has the 2 roller doors, a hinged door and the kitchenette. These are going to remain.
A closer look at the bench

Back (looking at putting a storage shed behind this one)
