The 4’ increment trick is great! Thank you! Im looking to build a garage room for my daughter because our family is growing. With the housing market and inflation so high it makes more sense for me to do this rather than find a 4 bed room house and add $900 a month to my payment. Thank you so much! This video makes me excited to start!
This is awesome man. But for ANYONE WATCHING definitely install a carbon monoxide monitor if you are going to put a room in your garage. Since its proximity is so close to your car, this room would be the most vulnerable.
@@debrasalinas2831 I understand, but the only vehicle that parked inside was my 1963 VW bus that doesn't get driven much and when I do it gets hand pushed into the garage.
I agree with you on the sensor, that would make it safe, but I wouldn’t worry too much since you need a car to be running for quite a while to fill the garage with cm, and the garage seems to have windows too… but better safe than sorry.
Subscribed for two reasons: 💖💖 this video, and noticed u took the time to answer people's questions in the comment section. You and your wife have big hearts, and it shows!!
Thanks for the Sub!!! The whole reason I do videos is to help people. If I make $1 or $1000 off TH-cam I could care less. It's fun to do and love to help where I can. For the last 4 years we have been hosting kids around the world... we love it and hopefully we get our 6th kids this year, but the COVID 19 is messing everything up....Fingers Crossed!!!
"...my wife likes it; I guess that's all that matters" 😆 No truer words have ever been spoken. Thinking about building a room in my garage for my wife's little side biz...This video has some good tips...nice job!
I know absolutely nothing about architecture, painting houses or anything close to it! All I know is that this is so amazing. This is making me want to get up and build a few things but again I have no experience *AT ALL* whatsoever lol
Well a welder, carpenter, plumber where never born as one. They just started picking up the tools and making it happen. Today could be the day you pick that first tool up and make it happen!!
Great video, definitely helped me decide I can finally tackle the same thing. You showed enough hacks to simplify the process for my brain that try’s to over complicate things. Business office here I come!
It wasn't too hard. Even if its not perfect your not modify the structure of your house. If you have any questions let me know.....always glad to help!!
This is awesome! My husband and I have been trying to figure out how to add a room to our house for our teenage son and this video has been such a huge help!
Hopefully I gave enough information to help you out. Another option is a portable building in back yard (depending on your location of course). You can make some nice rooms out of them if needed... plus give you and him more personal space if needed.
Very cool. I've been looking for something just like this. This is much closer to what I would want to do, and you've helped make it look so clear for the steps. Much appreciated.
Wow job well done! This is impressive! Thank you for documenting this entire process. I love it & will likely use a lot of your ideas to convert my third garage space. Again, outstanding as this was utterly impressive!
Thank you for blessing me with your sample . I’ve been racking my brain of how I’ll add a room in my house without major work . God bless you and your family. From Honolulu, Hawaii 🌼❤️
It’s so cool how you kept everything within codes for your area because even though she’s an exchange student the company or place that does do placement for exchange students would have to make sure that the room is within code and that is in safe conditions too so I am a very impressed I’m gonna be doing a build on the back edge of our garage it’s gonna be at least 8 foot or more front to back of the garage and then roughly over 25 feet and it’s gonna be turned into a hydroponics room and I think your ideas are right on spot right on this is for an amateur carpenter electrician and plumber jack of all trades master of none and former apprentice in construction I love working with wood and construction is so much fun and the smell of the wood is rewarding or I should say intoxicating to me
It made it easy and my exchange student loved it. My son loved it so much when I redid his room in our new house he wanted all the walls like this...lol.
Nice work man. Just bought a property that my sister and daughters live in, and I'm building an apartment in my shop for myself. Place is amazing. Sealing the concrete then building the walls. Bathroom is there, just adding a shower and hot water heater, then turning the already built office into a kitchen. My bedroom will be roughly 17x12. I did have a good bit of demo work considering it's a shop in a rural area...small woodland critters, with a bad case of the shits. What a mess that was...legit, full face plexy gas mask, hooded cover and shit kickers that went to my knees. It was bad in the beginning.
Excellent job man. I'm going to do this for my wife as well, only less space and will have to make it lower for clearance of the garage door. Not a problem, just intimidated by the slight slope that you mentioned. Anyway, great vid!
I was thinking about making part of it short to go under the door and make that area a closet. That way you get the space, but wouldn't notice it very much being a closet. The slope isn't bad... you just have to custom cut each stud on the one wall. Thanks for watching!
Wow you just blew my mind .. I was gonna do while garage and this just makes it much easier not to loose all my garage… but my problem is I do t have a window… that to me will be a scary project to put a window
turned out nice. would be great if u add list of materials (woodboard, insulation, 17:23 bench) & furnishing (lampstand, lamp over the door, etc) and what is the 17:23 drape on the right was supposed to do?
I could add a list, but the list will never be the same for anyone as the sizes will be different. The bench is just a countertop I had laying around that you can buy at Lowes/Home depot. All the decor came from Marshalls or Ross. The drape on the right is the closet "Door". She didn't need much room and worked out perfect for her.
Just design it out on paper first, measure twice and cut once and if your having any kind of motorized item in there add a detector like I did to be safe! Most of all have fun and if you have any questions let me know!
@@watsonst04 thank you my husband is an electrician. So he's definitely going to wire in a carbon monoxide/ fire detector. We close on our house soon and I need a room to make merchandise. We weren't sure how hard or what it would be. This is extremely helpful i saved the video to go back to to watch and definitely will ask you if I should come across any questions thank you so much for making this video!
Love the video appreciate you sharing. I'm halfway through the video and you must have said ahhh at least seven times. You're so soft spoken the mic is so quiet. Mama said annunciate your words better. And then you have the loud music come on after I had my speakers all the way up to hear you.. lol. Thank you for sharing the video very informative and helpful thank you sir my bearded brother from another mother.
I love it! Could you give me an approximate cost of what you did, please? Just a ballpark, and I understand that there could be + or - a LOT depending on all that it depends on! Thanks.
Materials was around $600 I think, but I didn't have to do any electrical or HVAC work. It was basically 2 insulated walls, rug I cut for the floors, (wood floors was left over from another house) and I already had all the tools.
Great 👍 job! You can get a storage box 📦 the same length to that desk you build with cushion on top to sit as bench and to storage her stuff and use ceiling space if possible to add shelves and if have under bed space buy those storage thinggy that you push under bed for more storage to put her stuff... perhaps you did that already! 👋
Those are some great ideas. This room was only built as a temporary room for my exchange student. She didn't have very much stuff, but if your gonna make it a permanent room then yes I would have added more storage.
Thanks.... that's why I like to make videos. Help someone out and get them better at doing DIY type of stuff. I also learn along the way, so it works both ways.
Family members really need an extra bedroom, so I'm researching how to do something low budget. Can you tell me approximately what you spent on materials? Did you create a material list that you can share? Thank you! It turned out beautifully!!!
I didn't do a materials list. Basically you need to measure your walls length (lets say you have 2x 10' walls). So you'll need 4x 10' boards for the top and bottom plate, and divide 10' by 16" = 7.5 (each wall) So you'll need 16 boards to make walls (studs). For each door or window in the new wall add 2 or 3 studs to make the opening and header for the top. Being you have 20' of wall you'll need 5x pieces of plywood for the outside and 5x paneling for the inside at a minimum. Hopefully that makes sense, if not let me know.
@@watsonst04 that is a good price.I hope I can get mine done here in Australia,I know itl cost more though thank you for all the ideas and how to do it.God bless
It was a temporary room for my exchange student. I asked her how much closet space she needed... she said her family doesn't hang clothes very much and just needed a dresser (I have shelves under the bed and at the foot of the bed). I basically only added the closet as my counter top didn't go from wall to wall, so it was just something I added to fill the gap.
This may have been asked already but there’s hundreds of comments. Do you have a complete list of materials how many lengths of timber and at what length? This is a great project one I’m looking to do almost exactly the same. Many thanks.
think you could post the full material list in the description in a comment? it would be very much appreciated! I plan on building the same exact idea in my garage, so yeah, a material list would be great so i know and also so i can go ahead and price everything first. thanks for your time brother!
Love the video! You gave me the confidence to start this project in my garage! I was wondering how you did the framing. Did you lay it all on the ground attach it then stand it up? Thank you!
This is awesome! I am planning on building a room myself in my garage. However, I noticed you did not have any heating or cooling (other than a fan I believe). I was raised in Texas and I know how hot the summers get there, just like here in Oklahoma. I intend on putting in some kind of A/C unit and electric heater, haven't figured out how just yet. I am also going to put in a subfloor with air channels because my garage floor condensates in high humidity and I don't want any chance of mold growing. Good job and thanks for the ideas!
I used portable unit for this room (remember I built this as a temporary room for my exchange student). Long term I would just put a window unit in the wall to climate control it. Most slabs won't swear if they place plastic down before they poured concrete. I made sure they did that.
Simple is usually best. This is similar to my garage project coming up for my utility room. I already have water pipes. I just want my WD enclosed in a nice room. I have a huge attached garage. 22’x34’.
@@ramildevera3055 No problem.... that's why I created a channel.... to help people if I could. Hope you have a Happy New Years and I hope 2021 is alot better than 2020!
Favorite part... The rustic wooden walls. I am gonna need to convert my garage to two rooms for my twins to have since they're getting older and they want privacy. I think I can make 2 8X16's or 8X14's... gotta measure when I get home.
You are so inspiring ! I need to do this for my daughter she has been sleeping on the floor in my granddaughters room for 2 years now ! Do you think I could do this
It not very hard... being this doesn't support anything structurally (roof, etc). Its not a big concern. Mainly just make sure you seal it and insulate it.
Wow nice. We just bought a new build house and we will need to do this for a 5th bedroom. We have no experience in doing this so what are some of your most important tips??
This is a easy build. Just make sure your studs (2x4 wall) are on 16" on center to make sure your plywood lays out right and easier to get insulation for as well. I didn't have to do any electrical (that made it easy). I also used screws for everything as it makes a tighter connection, also easier to undo if you make mistakes.
Thanks!!! My wife though I was crazy when I told her what I was going todo.... after it was done she was like "We should have done this a long time ago!!"....lol
People that can build like that are artists and don’t get enough credit. The room looks awesome!
Thanks!
The 4’ increment trick is great! Thank you! Im looking to build a garage room for my daughter because our family is growing. With the housing market and inflation so high it makes more sense for me to do this rather than find a 4 bed room house and add $900 a month to my payment.

This is exactly where i want mine in my garage. Different dimensions. Thanks for the tips. You saved me a day and a few beers.

How much was the cost around
This is awesome man. But for ANYONE WATCHING definitely install a carbon monoxide monitor if you are going to put a room in your garage. Since its proximity is so close to your car, this room would be the most vulnerable.
100% agree!! I installed a CD/smoke detector right by the door just in case!!
YUP YUP YUP carbon monoxide trap unless they park outside... TOXIC & possibly deadly this CAN NOT BE UP TO CODE ... nope 👎🏼 it’s cute but spooky
@@debrasalinas2831 I understand, but the only vehicle that parked inside was my 1963 VW bus that doesn't get driven much and when I do it gets hand pushed into the garage.

We love having kids around the world. It really breaks up the everyday same old thing. They keep us going and have fun the whole time!
Great job!
Can I ask how you secured the bottom plate to the floor?
Being this was a temporary room... I didn't secure it to the floor (I did lay a bead of chalk on the bottom to keep bugs out).
Chauk or caulk?
@@brookewitham2978 sorry I guess I got auto corrected... it's caulk that was applied with a caulking gun...lol.
Great job.
Thanks!

Great job! Love this idea!
It was easy...I'm sure you can do it yourself!!
Wow nice. We just bought a new build house and we will need to do this for a 5th bedroom. We have no experience in doing this so what are some of your most important tips??
This is a easy build. Just make sure your studs (2x4 wall) are on 16" on center to make sure your plywood lays out right and easier to get insulation for as well. I didn't have to do any electrical (that made it easy). I also used screws for everything as it makes a tighter connection, also easier to undo if you make mistakes.
This is beautiful! Great job
Thanks!!! My wife though I was crazy when I told her what I was going todo.... after it was done she was like "We should have done this a long time ago!!"....lol
Just moved in our new home and we’ll most definitely build an extra room in our garage. We’re complete noobs though !
It was a easy project. I got a little lucky as there was electrical plugs and a window already in there. Either way good luck with your project!
