If the answer the question is very rarely or more likely NEVER, but you do struggle for living space in your house then why not consider a garage conversion?

With most modern families expanding and new home getting smaller family space is of a premium, think of all that potential extra space that cold, un used garage holds. Not to mention the fact that a well planned, well finished conversion can add substantial value to your property.

Did you know that a standard single garage is approx 12ft wide, a width that wouldn't allow you to fully open the doors on an average family saloon when parked inside. That 12ft however converted into a new room could make all the difference to your family home and the way you lead your lives. If you have a double garage then the perfect solution could be a part conversion, maybe one side of the garage so that you can still park you car away at night and still gain a room. The other option is converting just the back half so that you can still use the front as storage, still allowing use of the large garage doors.

Some of the potential uses of this space are:

• a family room
• a children's playroom
• a bedroom with or without en suite
• a gym
• an office or home study
• a kitchen or utility
• a dining room
• a home cinema
• a workshop or home business facilities
• or an extension the adjacent room

A standard internal garage conversion (not requiring an increase of the footprint size) does not require planning permission so the only think you need to think of is what you want to use this space for. When you have thought about how this space will work best for you, give us a call and let us

This was a double garage fully converted including a raised cushioned floor. The room did however keep one fully functioning garage door behind the curtain. The other door remains on the outside but internally is closed off.
