For those who have an unused garage area, why not think about a conversion within Heathfield to make the most from the house. Compare and contrast around 4 totally free prices with our service and find the best price for a conversion.

One of the main advantages with a garage conversion is that the space can be transformed quickly for the extra room you need, whether it's for a growing family or simply just to add to the value of your property.

A garage conversion means you won't need to relocate for more space, which may save a lot of money on solicitor charges, estate agent payments and stamp duty. And the extra room can be transformed into what you need, whether it's an expansion to the living area or kitchen, or a separate room completely.

With the structure already in position it's evident that a garage conversion is going to be less costly than creating an extension too, and won't consume valuable space in your garden. With the outside unlikely to change too, it's a good way to get around restrictions for conservation areas and listed buildings.

If you're serious about transforming your garage, review prices from companies within Heathfield working with our quick and simple service to get the very best deal available.

Heathfield

Heathfield is a small market town in East Sussex, England. The town lies near the crossroads of 2 main roads: the A267 in between Tunbridge Wells and Eastbourne; and the A265 from Hawkhurst. It is almost equidistant from Tunbridge Wells and Eastbourne: roughly 16 mi (26 km). In the past, Heathfield lay on an ancient trackway (The Ridgeway), linking the South Downs with the Weald. Its market charter was given in February 1316 amid the reign of Edward II. The Wealden iron brought prosperity to the town throughout the 16th and 17th centuries; the arrival of the train (the Cuckoo Line) in 1880 gave it another new lease of life. The latter was not a financial success and the branch line in between Eridge and Polegate closed in 1968. The trackbed is now called the Cuckoo Trail, part of the National Cycle Network. The original village, described as Old Heathfield, is now only part of the town, which has grown gradually. The town runs an annual fair called the Heffle Cuckoo Fair each April, and the annual Heathfield show occurs each May in the summertime. There is an Anglo/French market called Le Marché held annually on the August Bank Holiday and a fair that visits during the Summertime. There is a reasonably sizeable football field and a little play area. At Cross-in-Hand there is a rugby club for adults and kids. Within the town, there are 2 floral designers, a variety of churches, a couple of hair and beauty parlor, 2 boutiques, an electrical store, 2 bookshops, 2 ironmongers, 5 charity shops, 2 clubs, a green grocer, a butcher, a baker, 2 antique shops, a grocery store, and a range of banks, estate agents, and eateries. For all your home renovations, be sure to find reputable professionals in Heathfield to make certain of quality.

FAQs

Will my garage conversion cause disruption to the rest of the house?

It shouldn’t do. Most companies will do all the interior work first, and the last job to do will be creating the opening from the house to the conversion. A reputable company will make sure they cause as little disruption as possible during this time.

Will the company deal with the building control application?

Most companies will make the building control application on your behalf and ensure that all the work is completed to the right standards. When a building inspector has inspected it, you’ll get a certificate. It usually takes around 6-8 weeks after completion to come.

do i need planning permission for a garage conversion?

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.

Will I need planning permission or building regulations approval?

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.
