A garage is a sought after feature of a modern home and it is something that can really work to increase the value of a home. It is something many house buyers will look for when investing in a new property, as it gives them options for the future and provides good storage options. For people lucky enough to have a garage, it can be used very well to add extra value to a home.

Make sure your garage is functional and doesn’t have issue with damp or leaks. It should be well insulated, using breeze blocks, insulated layers in walls and a door that will keep out drafts.

It also needs to look good and complement the design of your house in order to add value. The door is the most important feature and is probably the first part you will see of the garage. Choose a new door and if you can, get something like a sectional or roller shutter door for aesthetics and convenience.
