Building a new garage? Add a bathroom.

Adding a garage or a shop to your home?  Before you pour the slab, give some thought to adding a bathroom!  A bathroom in your new garage or shop will take up only a small amount of space.  Yes, it will need both a water line and a line to the sewer or septic but the additional cost to install them is minimal.  Going to Home Depot or Lowe's and purchasing an inexpensive sink, vanity, toilet and shower will not break the bank.  And small water heaters are inexpensive.

It will add additional value to your home if you decide to sell in the future.  Many people shopping for property are just as interested in the garage and shop than they are in the home. 

It will save time and add convenience to your property.
