A game room is a great way to provide your family with a place to gather and have fun. It can also be a great way to entertain guests, especially if you are tight on interior space. If you don't have an extra room in your house to spare, the game room of your dreams might be hiding in your garage. With some planning, imagination, and elbow grease, you can transform your garage into a purposeful game room, man cave, dance floor, or living space that everyone loves.

Benefits of a Garage Game Room

There's a reason arcade games and pool tables are popular in bars and why playrooms and parks are a thing: no matter how old we get, we always want to leave room for some fun. Having your very own rec room can be a game-changer for your social calendar and personal fulfillment. Convert your garage into the very best entertainment space in the neighborhood. 

Increasing the livable area of your home can be appealing, especially if you're working from home or your family is growing. Updating the flooring and function in your garage can instantly give life to a seemingly unusable or disorganized space. With our concrete coating system, your under-used (or unused) space will get not only an aesthetic makeover but you will enjoy increased durability for years to come. Add to your home’s future value and create the opportunity to enjoy a more functional room in the present. Here are some of the benefits of converting your garage into a rec room:

• It can be a great place to entertain guests. You can have game nights, movie nights, or just hang out and relax with friends and family.
• You can relax and unwind there. You can watch TV, read a book, or just take a nap in your own private space.
• It’s the perfect place for your kids to play. They can have their own space to run around and play games without having to worry about making a mess in the house.
• Get more space to store your belongings. If you don't have a lot of storage space in your house, you can use your garage as a place to store things like holiday decorations, camping gear, or tools.‍
• It can increase the value of your home. If you ever decide to sell your home, having a rec room can make it more attractive to potential buyers.

Essential Upgrades You Need for a Garage Game Room

Concrete Coating

At Webfoot, we use a unique coating system that meets our standards for durability, ease, and quick installation. Our services turn your stained, marked, cracked concrete into a surface you can be proud of. A concrete coating will not only enhance the overall look and feel of your space, it provides protection against stains and spills, and is much easier to clean and maintain than traditional concrete floors. In our opinion, it’s a game room essential. 

‍

Because our coatings are non-absorptive, oils and other fluids will not seep in and stain permanently. Concrete coated floors are much easier to clean and maintain then traditional floors and are a great option for pets that shed or families with allergies. Whether the look you’re going for is traditional, contemporary, or if you lean more towards eccentric design, you can find a concrete coating option to match your taste and style. The end result? A game room floor strong enough to withstand the wildest poker night and yet stylish enough to serve as a aesthetic focal point.

Cabinets & Slat Wall Storage 

Even if your garage is small, investing in a custom storage solution will help you maximize the available space and keep things tidy while allowing you the flexibility to play with the designs you prefer that fit your specific needs.  Choosing custom storage solutions is a great way to properly store your items and make room for everything you want to do in your garage. Whether you need a locker for tools, sports equipment, your board game collection, or seasonal items, a garage cabinet system will help you stay organized and make it easier to categorize your items and store them according to your preferences. 

‍

If you want to make some items more easily accessible without having to dig through drawers, wall shelving is a lifesaver. Slat walls— which tend to last longer then other shelving systems— are a perfect example of wall storage that help you keep the floor clear.
