What Does it Cost to Convert a Carport to a Garage? Scottsdale, Arizona Carport Conversion Cost
The cost to convert a carport to a garage in Scottsdale, AZ will depend on several factors. This is because you can choose a very basic carport conversion, or one with more options. Some popular options that can increase the cost to convert a carport into a garage include:
- Electrical upgrades & lighting
- Electric vehicle charging station
- Interior finishes, such as drywall or plywood
- Insulated walls or ceiling insulation
- Adding extra doors or windows
- Siding, such as board & batten, fiber cement, or stucco
- Garage storage, shelving, and cabinets
- Garage door choices
- Replacing the concrete slab
- Replacing your driveway
Whatever options you choose, enclosing your carport to create a garage is one of the easiest ways to gain valuable storage space, covered vehicle parking, and home security.
A garage conversion will also increase your home’s value. According to the Scottsdale, Arizona real estate experts at eastvalleyurban.com & PADLAB real estate brokerage, a typical Scottsdale home can increase $20,000 to $30,000 in value when it has had a carport to garage conversion.
If the garage has added features, such as a finished interior, an epoxy floor coating, garage cabinets, or electric vehicle charging installation, the value can increase even more.
