[QUOTE="STXDriver98544, post: 15487849, member: 140519"] Ok SVTP architect home masters I have a question. As with pretty much all newer builders homes these idiots like to drywall the garage ceilings. The home I grew up in was a detached garage with open rafters and my dad was able to use it all for storage by simply laying plywood down and boom you have shelving. With these homes nowdays where the garage is attached to the house are they dry walled for temperature control and protecting the HVAC system? My question is, if I removed some dry wall to open up the rafters in my attic space what kind of problems would it cause if any, keep in mind this is a 1 story. Even though heat rises I would think it would help airflow up in the attic if you opened up some space but maybe I'm wrong. Just wondering the reasoning of why they do it if it's for aesthetic purposes or for an actual purpose. I've seen tons of videos on how to build overhead shelves but then I got to thinking why do that when you have all that un-used attic space over the garage. You can't haul anything wide through the width of that slim attic door like big coolers and stuff. Plus it sucks pulling the vehicles out every time you need to get something down. [/QUOTE]
