@@LovingTechLife I wish. I don't have such a storage room to turn into a regular room but I always like to see what creative things people are up to. Have aspirations to do so maybe in a future home with multiple (spare) rooms.
Great video. Amazing your layout is exactly the same as my garage and reasons for converting the same as mine. Thank you for the informative video. Out of interest, is this a renovation in Australia. How did you go with building permits and council approvals? Ie class 1, class 10 structures etc.
Fantastic Video Bud! What a great end result Im fellow local Aussie based in Melbourne - This is exactly what i would like to do with my garage, i know its a long shot but would love to have a bit more of a chat with you about it and if you had to get any council permits. etc. Cheers!
Hey @@paulp1802 , no insulation. It’s concrete with an Epoxy coating for protection and some office carpet tiles. I did consider a cork tile but decided against it for budget purposes and I’ve been really happy with this flooring setup.
Nice job. Do wonder if you wouldn’t have been better getting the paper backed insulation and stapling it to the framing . When you doubled it up on walls and ceiling it would have given you an air gap further deadening the sound.
Hey @@colmbright9822 ! Yeah that might have helped. I don’t have that kind of insulation available where I am I don’t think. However by far the biggest game changer is the Mass Loaded Vinyl.
Is there a way i could do this whilst living in a rented property? Like do it in a way where i could remove it all when i move out? I dont expect it to be as final and permanent as your room but just a close alternative ya know. Thanks for the help bud

Really well put together video mate! What a fantastic result
Hey Rawkandetc! Thank you for the great feedback. It was a lot of work but definitely worth it in the end.
Great result David! And excellent video 👌
Thanks Robin, appreciate the feedback!
Very nice end result!
Thanks Cerasus! It was a lot of effort at the time lol! 🥵
Are you thinking of doing something similar?

Good vid. Exactly the info i need.
Hey @Zintuet! Glad it was helpful. 👍🏻
Did you insulate the floor before doing the epoxy?
Superb - next time you're in Ireland I must just get you over for some of my minor, yet impossible to some, diy jobs
Great work!
Hey Jamie! Thanks, it was a fair bit of work at the time but reaping the benefits now. 😀
@@LovingTechLife looking at doing something similar in the near future so took a lot of inspiration from this
That’s awesome, let me know if you have any questions. DM me on Instagram if you need .
@@LovingTechLife Thank you mate, I will likely take you up on that

Wow! thanks for this excellent video.
Hey@@picturesLondon! You’re very welcome! 👍🏻😀
Pretty awesome man!
Thanks Supersonic!
Was the floor insulated?

Building control wouldn’t allow that in uk
@paulp1802 interesting! Is the floor insulation just for energy saving purposes?
@ yes must be insulated in uk
Great result and great video! What sort of permits and approvals did you need to get? Im looking to do the same thing (in Melbourne).
Hey @@richardsmallwood2645 ! I’m in Melbourne too. DM me on instagram @lovingtechlife if you like and I can answer any questions you might have. 👍🏻

Hey @@scottharris1552 ! Maybe you could but I never would have in all the years I rented 😅
Just ask your landlord for permission. They might be happy for you to do it. The next tenant might prefer it too.
If you were my tenant, I'd give you written permission and even recommended contractors.
@15:55 Could you link the door seal? Cheers!

Too much talking than hands on
Hey Bonfruits! Thanks for the feedback, hope you still got some valuable information for your own project! 👍🏻
Thought it was spot on personally
Hey Paul! Thanks mate 🙏🏻
We don't need to know why you needed to convert your garage into an extra room. Just get on with telling us how you did it.
Hi Ivan, appreciate the feedback. Hope the rest of the video was helpful.
@@LovingTechLife you are a very kind man. Keep up the good work
