GARAGE MAKEOVER IN LORRAINE

Espace Garage Plus’s Bespoke and Turnkey Solution

Founded in 1960, Lorraine was planned by businesspeople to be almost exclusively residential, with no industry, and as a result, it is home to many families living in single-family homes with attached garages—often double garages, but rarely well-organized. Whether your home dates back to the early days of Lorraine’s residential development or is a more recent construction, your garage has the potential to become an organized, sustainable, and truly functional space. This has been Espace Garage Plus’s mission since 2006: to transform residential garages in the Greater Montreal area and the North Shore—including Lorraine—into bespoke and turnkey spaces.

Recognized Expertise Since 2006

Espace Garage Plus was the first company in Quebec to specialize exclusively in residential garage makeover. For 20 years, the company has been a leader in the field, recognized by media outlets such as La Presse, the Journal de Montréal, Les Affaires, and the Montreal Gazette, and holds a general contractor’s license from the Régie du bâtiment du Québec (RBQ #8344-6948-41). This dual expertise—interior design and renovation work overseen by a licensed contractor—sets Espace Garage Plus apart from mere suppliers of storage furniture

The Reality of Garages in Lorraine

Lorraine has experienced rapid residential growth and many of its double garages—though spacious at first—quickly fill up with tools, bicycles, sports equipment, and seasonal items. The result: a space where it becomes difficult to park two vehicles due to the lack of a structured storage system. Meanwhile, year after year, the concrete floors suffer the effects of salt and calcium brought in by cars during the winter. Espace Garage Plus designs bespoke solutions to restore these garages to full functionality.

Products Designed for Quebec’s Climate

Espace Garage Plus’s product lineup directly addresses the challenges of a four-season Lorraine garage:

  • Custom-made furniture in melamine or polymer, with countertops in solid colored beech or stainless steel, for durable and attractive storage.
  • Modular furniture made of 18- to 22-gauge steel, available in over twenty colors, and resistant to moisture and impact.
  • Waterproof and mold-resistant PVC wall-mounted storage panels—a major advantage against the humidity typical of Lorraine winters.
  • Ceiling-mounted storage brackets, capable of supporting up to 800 pounds, ideal for freeing up floor space in compacts garages.
  • Sika hybrid epoxy/polyaspartic floor coating, designed to resist salt and calcium—a solution particularly relevant for Lorraine residents.

Comprehensive Services, Under Direct Supervision

Beyond products, Espace Garage Plus acts as a general contractor for all related work: insulation, drywall, electrical work (including charging stations for electric vehicles, which are increasingly in demand in Lorraine), plumbing, painting, and installation. All work is subcontracted to RBQ-licensed contractors under the direct supervision of Espace Garage Plus.
