Garage? Could you define that term? Is that where I'd put my golf cart if I had one?
Is the inside of your home's garage painted?

We just had a detached 24x24 garage built, we left it with raw studs showing since it's just an overgrown storage unit.

The painting contractor told me he would have garage painted before we moved in. It would give the house a nice touch. That was in March of 1989....maybe he will show up this weekend.

No way! $1,200 is way to cheap, I would have asked for an estimate and put them to work.
After we got done sheetrocking we got a quote from a pro to do the texture of $1,000 alone. A $20 gun from HF and a bucket of texture from HD was much cheaper. Plus it was fun since it was only the garage.
For pretty much the same cabinets we built it was going to be $10,000 by a cabinet manufacturer installed. $960 in supplies from HD and we built them ourselves.

Painted? Ours isn't even drywalled! There was originally a DIY built-in workbench, but we ripped it out when it became clear that it was just a glorified shelf, and without it we could put in lots of shelves.
Ours is a detached garage, so it isn't part of the house. That makes the finishing seem less important.

I wish I had a garage! A carport just isn't the same.
My daughter and her husband bought a house with a garage. This past month, we've been helping them insulate and drywall the inside (walls were only finished outside; open studs inside). My daughter plans on finishing the drywall and painting it nicely. They use the garage primarily as a game room.
