It’s not uncommon for older Lakewood homes to have aging garages unfit for any use other than storage.  Thankfully, this homeowner problem will be addressed during an upcoming “Knowing Your Home” workshop.

LakewoodAlive will host “Knowing Your Home: Garage Repair & Replacement” on Saturday, April 22, from 10 a.m. to 12 noon at Cleveland Lumber Company (9410 Madison Avenue in Cleveland). The sixth workshop of 2017 for this popular home maintenance educational program is designed to specifically address aging Lakewood garages.

This workshop aims to serve as your first step when looking to repair or replace your garage, equipping you with knowledge and confidence to proceed with your project. The Great Garage Company will provide a presentation focused on:

• General garage repairs like foundation rot, issues related to dirt floors and no foundation, doors, roofs and carpentry issues
• Leaning garages and what can be done
• Replacement - what to expect when going through the process
• Garage kits
• Working with contractors and architects to get what you want
• Understanding local garage code
