For those who have an unused garage area, why not think about a conversion in Chester Le Street and make the most from your home. Contrast around 4 free prices with our service to get the top price for a conversion.
One of the leading benefits with a garage conversion is the space can be transformed quickly for the extra room you'll need, whether it's for a growing family or simply just to add to the value of your house.
A garage conversion suggests you won't need to move for more space, which often can save thousands of pounds on solicitor charges, estate agent payments and stamp duty. And the extra space could be converted into what you need, whether it's an extension to the living area or kitchen, or even a separate room completely.
With the structure already in position it's evident that a garage conversion is going to be less expensive than building an extension as well, and won't eat valuable space within your garden. With the exterior not likely to change too, it's a great way to get around rules for conservation areas and also listed buildings.

It’s often said that a garage conversion can take anywhere between 1 week to 1 month, depending on the size and scope. But many standard conversions without any plumbing can take as little as 5 days. Your contractor will be able to tell you exactly how long your garage conversion will take.
Are you thinking about converting your garage into a new space? Be it a new bedroom, gym, library or playroom, one thing you’ll have to consider before getting started is whether or not you’re going to require a planning permission. Unlike extensions that needs additional space, garage conversion is all about changing the existing structure of a space that’s already available to you - your garage. As a result, these projects are mostly covered by a planning policy that’s a bit different.
For a garage conversion, it’s very unlikely that you’ll need a planning permission. As a matter of fact, only 10 percent of garage conversions has been estimated to need a full planning permission, with the others coming under the permitted development rights. The permitted development rights, however, only provides coverage for home improvements that’s internal which implies that so far you’re not trying to enlarge your garage, you’ll not require a planning permission. But if otherwise, you’ll have to submit an application before commencing your project.
If you’re looking to comply with the permitted development rights, then your project must comply with some specific guidelines. These rules include the following:
• The work should be internal. No plans to enlarge or extend the existing garage.
• You should make sure that the materials used in carrying out the garage conversion is the same with the materials used in building the existing house.
• The building should not be extended.
You may, however, require a planning permission if you’re going to change a detached garage into a living space which could be a bedroom, small annexe or a living room.
Some houses excluded from the permitted development rights include flats, listed buildings, some new developments and most homes in a conservation area.
You may need planning permission if you are planning a larger extension. All extensions will need building regulations approval. An architect can assist with this and if planning permission is required. A reputable contractor will also be able to advise you if this is needed as well.
