Turning Garage Potential into Reality: See the Before & After of this Colorado Garage
Watch how an Aurora garage transformed into so much more than just a place for parking
There’s nothing we love more than transforming Colorado garages into functional, beautiful spaces that don’t just look great, but work hard for homeowners all year long. We recently had the opportunity to complete this garage remodel in Aurora, and it stands out as a prime example of creative thinking and craftsmanship working in harmony.
Go behind the scenes below to see the process and the final garage reveal. Every detail was added with purpose—and always in alignment with the way this homeowner wanted to use their garage. This process showcases the difference when space, skill, and strategy come together in a garage!
This garage was ready for a transformation!
A Colorado Garage With Room to Grow
Located in Aurora, this garage came with a canvas that felt full of promise. High ceilings and windows filled the space with natural light, making it the perfect setting to maximize function without sacrificing form. With a blank slate like this, our team saw endless potential.
Our client’s garage looked like many others we’ve seen—functional but leaving plenty of room to better utilize the space. The unfinished garage was framed while boxes, storage, tools, and miscellaneous items filled the area, even blocking the windows. The concrete floors showed years of natural wear and damage in multiple spots. Our goal was to improve every square foot of the garage with function, efficiency, and beauty.
This garage is a perfect example of how smart organization can add valuable space to your home. With overhead racks, slat walls, and cabinets, we’ve seen many of our Denver-area clients reclaim 200 square feet or more of usable space in an average 2–3 car garage. That added space expands your home’s functionality, keeps things safely stored, and eliminates so much daily stress coming in and out of your home.
Every project begins with listening. We learn about our clients’ daily routines, storage challenges, and vision for their space. This insight allows us to create garage solutions that are both highly functional and visually striking. With the homeowner, we developed a detailed game plan:
New drywall installation and paint
Repair and refinish the garage floor with our coyote color flaking
Custom overhead shelving to maximize the vertical space
Cabinet and slat wall installation
Refinish the stairs
Base cove finishing for the final touches
New lighting to make the whole garage shine!
The Process
While the homeowner prepared the space and moved belongings out, we were ready to get to work. However, like any good story, not everything was smooth sailing. The cabinets were delayed by the manufacturer, so we kicked things off with the drywall, paint, and flooring for the first phase of this particular project.
Each project starts with a solid foundation. As part of our flooring process, we grind down and fix any existing cracks prior to applying any coatings. We seal all cracks and imperfections and fully prep the surface using an industrial grinder. Then, we apply our base coat of epoxy before the flake color.
Epoxy flooring can shift, expand, and shrink due to changing temperatures – especially in Colorado’s hot summers and cold winters. The polyaspartic floor withstands those changes as it bonds directly to the concrete leaving our customers with a durable, safe, spectacular floor that is built to last.
We equipped the garage with slatwall panels and overhead racks to maximize storage capacity and keep everything organized. The slatwall system provides adaptable storage—perfect for hanging tools, garden equipment, and seasonal accessories. The client now uses it to store shovels, rakes, leaf blowers, and various other items, all within easy reach yet safely off the ground.
The overhead storage solution is particularly noteworthy. By taking advantage of the unused ceiling area, we added accessible space for bulky items and seasonal belongings that aren't needed daily. Two sturdy shelves installed above head height—one extending the full garage length—keep storage bins and larger equipment out of the way while remaining convenient to access.
While the customer awaited the cabinets, the completed garage floor and shelving already allowed them to park comfortably in the garage and use overhead storage.
Once the cabinets arrived, we returned to complete the final stage: installing custom cabinets with lockers, tool storage, and all the accessories needed to fully maximize space and utility.
The final result!
Built for Real-Life Colorado
Garages in Colorado do double duty—storage, hobbies, gear, vehicles, and more. That’s why we design every garage to be as hardworking as it is handsome. This Aurora homeowner now has a space that fits their lifestyle perfectly, meeting all the needs of a Colorado family in motion.
The final reveal is truly something special: a bright, organized, and functional garage that brings ease to daily routines while looking incredible. From the polished floors to the custom storage solutions, every inch is thoughtfully designed and expertly executed. The homeowner now enjoys a garage that’s not just for parking cars, but a space that enhances their life and home.
Your garage could be next. Whether you’re in Aurora, Denver, Highlands Ranch, or anywhere in between, we’re here to help you create a space that works for your life.
