Garage conversions
Garage Conversions in Hertfordshire, Bedfordshire & London
Most garages are used for storage rather than cars. Converting yours into a proper room is one of the quickest and most affordable ways to add living space — a home office, guest bedroom, playroom, gym or self-contained annexe.
A proper room, not a converted garage
We build garage conversions that look and feel like part of the house, with a properly insulated floor, walls and roof, and a front elevation that matches your home.
Building regulations approval is always needed, and we handle it for you.

FAQs

How long does a garage conversion take?
A typical integral garage conversion takes 3–5 weeks.
Will converting my garage affect parking?
Some councils require off-street parking to be kept. We'll look at this at the site visit.
