GARAGE ADDITIONS

Maximizing your living space

Why a Garage Addition Is Worth Every Dollar

Most homeowners think about adding a garage when they need more space for their cars. That’s a perfectly good reason. But the moment you start thinking beyond the car, the possibilities get a lot more interesting and the value of the investment gets a lot more compelling.

Standalone or Attached: You Have Options

One of the first decisions homeowners face is whether to add onto an existing structure or build a standalone garage. Both have real advantages. An attached addition offers convenient access from inside the home and can blend seamlessly with your existing architecture built to match the home.

A detached structure gives you more flexibility in placement and can serve as a completely separate space for work, hobbies, or guests.

The right choice depends on your lot, your lifestyle, and what you plan to use the space for.

The ROI Is Real

Beyond lifestyle, the numbers make sense. An attached garage addition consistently ranks among the top projects for value added to a home across nearly 1,300 U.S. markets. For Indianapolis homeowners, that matters in a competitive real estate market where storage, workspace, and flexibility are increasingly what buyers are looking for.

Modern Touch Contracting Garage Remodeling Experts Bring Your Vision to Life

This is where homeowners often surprise themselves. Once the walls go up and the floor goes down, a garage addition becomes a blank canvas. Here’s how Indianapolis homeowners are putting that space to work:

Vintage Car Storage — Climate-controlled space for collections worth protecting
Woodworking Shop — Dedicated room for tools, projects, and sawdust
Art Studio — Natural light, open space, and room to make a mess
Home Gym — No commute, no membership fees, no waiting for equipment

Golf Simulator — A growing trend that needs ceiling height and square footage
A Garage Band — Soundproofing potential away from the main house
Home Office — Separate from the house, separate from distraction
Guest Suite — Add a bathroom and you have an entirely new living space

A well-built garage addition doesn’t just add square footage. It adds a whole new category of living to your property.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We have now done our 3rd major renovation with Modern Touch, and again just the best in indianapolis. A significant renovation to the main level with flooring, drywall, backspash, plumbing, baseboards, and major updates to the basement. Beyond phenomenal customer service, transparency, and quality that is unmatched (March 2026) Modern Touch Contracting went ABOVE and BEYOND our expectations when visualizing this project. We used Modern Touch in May of 2021 on a full bathroom renovation and we realized that the quality of their product and service was second to none. We went ahead in choosing them without hesitation on our upstairs/attic master bedroom renovation. The outcome of this project was more than what we ever would have expected. Miguel and Adam both took time in the months preceding to understand what our goals and desires were for upstairs, as well as being conscious of our budget. The customer service that modern touch provides is outstanding. They never make assumptions on detail oriented work, they never rush through meticulous detail, and they always ensure that we are satisfied with the job done. It's easy for us to say that Modern Touch has earned lifelong customers! Thank you to Miguel, Adam, Darius, and the rest of the incredible team on making our home even better, and we can't wait for the next project! (March 2023)

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We couldn’t be more pleased with our bathroom reno by modern touch! Their communication was great through the whole process, and more than that, we appreciated their transparency. They were very detailed and thorough and provided great recommendations. They were thrown a couple curve balls (aka finding a cast iron tub 🤯) and handled everything great. We definitely recommend modern touch and will be using them in the future when the opportunity arrives. Thanks Miguel and team!
