[QUOTE="STXDriver98544, post: 15487980, member: 140519"] Interesting. Oldmodman, I actually had someone tell me that I needed to seal off my house attic area from the garage attic space, which wouldn't be hard because my attic door comes right up to that split so there is already an area there to stand on and I could put a wall up. My house does not have any insulation it's completely naked over the garage so my guess like you said is that they used the dry wall as a half ass way if insulating. They also used the cheapest materials possible on the garage door, it's a low grade Wayne Dalton POS system it opens and closes at least haha. It's a D.R. Horton home I've been in it for about 5 or 6 years and it's been a great house but I'd like add storage. Sleek 98 that makes sense because these cookie cutter builders cut spending where they can, I'll probably just keep bulky items up there like coolers and jack stands, etc. Just stuff that I can get up a regular A frame ladder to lift up there. I don't think I'll do the whole garage just about a quarter of it that should be plenty of extra space. I'll weigh the costs of both jobs of removing drywall and sealing off or building suspended overhead shelves and figure out which one would be more effective. I bet if I sealed off the garage with a wall my energy bills would plummet in the Texas summers here. [/QUOTE]
