Why Plaza Midwood Homeowners Choose Total Garage

Plaza Midwood is one of Charlotte's most architecturally distinctive neighborhoods, with housing stock that ranges from 1920s craftsman bungalows to 1950s ranch homes to recent infill new-construction. Many garages here are detached, narrow, or shorter than modern standard. We measure each independently, design around the actual ceiling height and door clearances, and recommend products that work in the space rather than fighting it. Central Avenue, The Plaza, and Pecan Avenue are all in our regular Charlotte service circuit.

Plaza Midwood Garage Storage Questions

Can you install in a detached garage with no electrical service?
Yes, but we recommend adding outlets before the install if you plan to use a workbench, charge tools, or run a freezer. We do not perform electrical work, but we coordinate with licensed electricians and time their work so outlets are placed where the cabinetry will not block them.
Will the cabinetry work in an older garage with non-standard ceiling height?
Yes. We measure the actual ceiling height (older Plaza Midwood garages can run from seven feet to nine feet) and design cabinet stacks that fit. If overhead racks are not viable due to low ceilings, we shift more storage into taller cabinet stacks and use a wall-mount overhead system instead.
Do you handle a garage with a non-square footprint or angled walls?
Yes. Older Charlotte garages sometimes have angled corners, knee walls, or out-of-square framing. We measure each wall independently, account for the actual angles in the 3D rendering, and order cabinet runs that fit without filler strips. The crew brings shims and trim to handle the small variations on install day.
Can you install on a garage floor with significant cracks or unevenness?
Yes, but we may recommend additional prep. Diamond grinding levels minor unevenness, polyurea fills cracks, and the chip broadcast hides the prepped surface. For severely sloped or sunken slabs, we recommend a structural assessment before coating, since a coating cannot fix a structural slab problem.
What size cabinet bank fits in a typical Plaza Midwood detached garage?
A typical detached one-car or one-and-a-half-car Plaza Midwood garage fits a six-foot to eight-foot cabinet run plus a four-foot slatwall section. That is enough for tools, household chemicals, and seasonal items. Two-car detached garages can support a full ten to twelve foot cabinet bank.
Do you preserve the historic character of the original garage?
We do everything we install on the inside. The exterior of a historic Plaza Midwood detached garage is untouched by our work. Interior cabinetry, slatwall, and overhead racks are reversible (mounting points can be patched and painted) if you ever want to restore the room to bare walls.
