How To Turn A Storage Shed Into Living Space

Yes it's easier to turn a storage shed into a living space, than most people think. Even a small building can be easily converted.

What you need:

1. Insulation - Install the best insulation possible to reduce energy expense

2. Install the wiring and electrical outlets, lights, etc. Separate breakers in orderto prevent electric problems later.

3. Install drywall or concrete board onto the walls. Remember that small spaces build condensation easier than larger spaces. Concrete board over the walls will prevent the condensation from building in smaller spaces.

4.Install, or have someone else install, waterproof flooring. Any leaks can be harmful to your flooring, so waterproof flooring in any home is essential.
