Remaking your garage into an extra bedroom.
Convert garage to bedroom raise floor.
That is why many people are choosing to merely remodel their garage for use as a sleeping area rather than legally converting it to an interior bedroom.
If there is a dampness problem tackle this first with poly or other liners.
To keep the floor from being cold if you decide to go with hardwood the floor may need to be raised for insulation.
Normally garage floors are about 8 inches below the general house level.
This can easily become longer should any significant obstacles or structural repairs need to be made during the construction.
Many who complete a garage conversion ultimately choose.
While it is nice for a bedroom to have raised floors to protect it from water damage and flooding that entire structure may need to be removed to convert the room back to a garage.
Resulting in a raised floor height that will need to be managed at the garage entryways.
Garage floors are normally of almost the same level as driveways and there is every chance the dampness from surrounding areas could get into your garage.
