The Most Cost-Effective Way to Expand
──

Building a brand-new home addition involves pouring new foundations and framing new roofs, which can be incredibly expensive. A garage conversion, however, utilizes the structure you already have. At Taurus Contracting Inc., we help you unlock the square footage that is sitting right there in your driveway.

We understand that losing storage space is a concern, but gaining a playroom, home office, or guest suite often outweighs the need to store old boxes. We approach every conversion with a focus on comfort and compliance. We ensure the space doesn't feel like "a garage with a rug," but rather a seamless extension of your main house that is fully insulated, heated, and legal.

Possibilities for Your Garage Space

──
We handle the entire transformation from the concrete slab to the finishing touches. Here is how we can transform your space:
 

Home Gyms & Fitness Studios

Stop paying for a gym membership. We install rubberized or durable vinyl flooring, mirrors, and proper ventilation to create the perfect workout environment right at home.


Home Offices

With more people working remotely, a dedicated office is essential. We can soundproof the walls and install ample electrical outlets and lighting to create a quiet, productive workspace separate from the noise of the main house.


Playrooms & Rec Rooms

Give the kids their own space. We create durable, safe, and warm play areas where toys can stay organized and out of your living room.


Guest Suites & Bedrooms

Need space for an aging parent or visiting family? We can add a closet, proper egress windows, and even a bathroom to create a comfortable, private suite (subject to local zoning laws).


The "Infill" Wall

The most dramatic change. We remove the metal garage door and frame a new exterior wall with windows and siding that matches your home perfectly. From the outside, no one will know it was ever a garage.

Our Conversion Process

──

Step 1: Structural Assessment & Code Review

We evaluate your existing garage structure to determine the necessary upgrades for insulation, heating, and egress.

Step 2: Demolition & Framing

We remove the garage door and tracks. We then frame the new exterior wall and any interior partition walls needed for closets or bathrooms.

Step 3: Rough-In & Insulation

Our licensed team installs electrical wiring and plumbing. Once approved, we insulate the space thoroughly to meet residential energy codes.

Step 4: Finishing

We hang drywall, install flooring, and finish the trim. The result is a beautiful room that looks and feels exactly like the rest of your home.

Frequently Asked Questions About Garage Conversions

──

Will the room be cold in the winter?

Not if done correctly. We build an insulated subfloor over the concrete and insulate the walls and ceiling. We also install a dedicated heating source (like a mini-split) to ensure the room maintains a comfortable temperature year-round.


How much does a garage conversion cost compared to an addition?

A garage conversion is typically 40-50% cheaper than building a home addition of the same size because the foundation, walls, and roof usually already exist.


Can you keep the garage door but still finish the inside?

Yes. Some homeowners prefer to keep the exterior garage door for "curb appeal" or storage access while finishing the back half of the garage for a gym or office. We can design a layout that works for you.


Does converting a garage lower my property value?

It depends. While you lose indoor car storage, you gain valuable square footage. In many parts of Long Island where living space is at a premium, a finished, legalized additional room increases the overall value of the home.
