Change is almost always a good thing; it’s a well-known saying that ‘a change is often as good as a rest’. A big change in most people’s lives is when it is time to move home. There are many reasons as to why moving house has to happen, but in nearly all cases it can still be a big drain on time and can become quite stressful. If you are considering moving house it is probably worth considering some alternatives before you jump in.

There are many reasons that make people decide to want to move house, if you have to move because of work or family commitments there are few alternatives. However, if you are moving for extra living space, then leaving an area that you like can be a tough decision to make.

If you are lucky enough to have a house with a garage then you may have a ready made solution right under your nose. Most people use their garage for extra storage space or to store their car or motorbike. However, this can usually start with the best intentions, but can over time the garage can quickly become a room filled with all of the items you know you need to throw away but just don’t have the heart to! Or they become the place to store old toys, Christmas decorations and old pieces of furniture, not the best use of the space!

Removing all items from a garage can free up a surprising amount of space in the home. Once cleared, adding quality flooring, ensuring the roof is water tight and custom fitted storage solutions will make the humble garage a usable space. If you store your car in the garage, by adding bespoke storage you may free up room to store items as well as your car, for example, wall based storage and shelving can be really effective in adding even more storage space.

Giving your garage a makeover means it can make a perfect home-office, gymnasium or games room. With new flooring and soft furnishings it can be a great play room for children as they will be able to create mess and spill things without the worry of them breaking or ruining anything in the home. Much better that they spill paint on the floor in the garage than all over the television in the living room!

Of course, by utilising the space in your garage effectively can mean using at as a more effective storage area. Organising what is stored in the garage can free up space in the main living areas, especially the spare room. Also, if you use heavy duty, secure storage that can be locked there may be an opportunity to store more of your possessions in there, such as golf clubs or racing bikes – items that many would rather store in the house due to their value.

Moving home can sometimes turn out to be a very long-winded, stressful experience. So, if you are moving just to gain a little bit of extra space then it could be well worth taking the time to see if there is any potential to squeeze any more usable space out of the home you already have.
