Garage conversion industry experts in South Queensferry

For those who have a unused garage, why not look at a conversion in South Queensferry and make the most from your home. Review up to four free quotes with our service to get the best price for a conversion.

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

A garage conversion suggests you won't have to move for extra space, which will save you thousands of pounds on solicitor charges, estate agent payments and stamp duty. And the extra room could be changed into anything you need, no matter if it's an expansion to the living area or kitchen, or possibly a separate room completely.

With the structure already in position it's evident that a garage conversion will be less costly than building an extension as well, and won't consume valuable space in your garden. With the outside not likely to change as well, it's a great way to bypass rules for conservation areas and also listed buildings.

South Queensferry

Queensferry, additionally called South Queensferry or merely "The Ferry", is a town to the west of Edinburgh, Scotland, generally an imperial burgh of West Lothian. It lies ten miles to the north-west of Edinburgh city centre, on the shore of the Firth of Forth in between the Forth Bridge, Forth Road Bridge and also the Queensferry Crossing. The prefix South offers to identify it from North Queensferry, on the opposite coast of the Forth. Both towns obtain their name from the ferry service established by Queen Margaret in the 11th century, which continued to operate at the town up until 1964, when the Road Bridge was opened. Its population at the 2011 census was 9,026 based on the 2010 interpretation of the region which in addition to the burgh includes Dalmeny.

FAQs

do you need an architect for a garage conversion?
Have you decided to convert that under-utilized space ( garage) in your home to a more habitable space where you can do anything asides general storage or parking a car? If yes, then you’d probably want to know where to start or if you’d require an architect to get started. Well, you’re not alone! This is one of the most frequently asked questions when it comes to garage conversions and reasonably so. Talking about where to get started, when it comes to home improvement projects the first step to take is determining whether or not you’d require a planning permission or if your proposed garage conversion is covered under permitted development rights. Once you’ve been able to conclude on that, the next step is deciding whether you’re going to complete the project yourself, hire the services of tradesmen or employing a builder. And this ultimately brings us to the question of whether you’ll need an architect for a garage conversion. To get started, it’s highly recommended that you employ the services of a professional architect or an architectural technologist to assist in designing your garage conversion. However, most garage conversion projects are straightforward with no complex changes to be made so far you wish to avoid applying for a planning permission and staying within the set guidelines of the permitted development rights. In such events, if you’re properly trained and well experienced in the field, then it may be cost effective to design your garage conversion by yourself. It should, however, be noted that it all depends on your personal preferences and budget. If you’re on tight budget and don’t mind a straightforward design, you can save cost by not hiring an architect.
how long does a garage conversion take?

Garage conversion is a great way to add extra usable space to your home without having to extend your property. A fun fact is that, in the UK if you have your car parked in the garage, you’re in the minority. According to a research carried out by Admiral Loans, just about 33 percent of home owners in the UK store their cars in the garage. For most people the garage is literally a dumping ground that’s never fully utilized as such. In recent times, the garage is now being used to store a variety of other stuffs asides a car which includes garden furniture, tools and appliances, utilities such as washing machine, fridge and freezer as well as food and groceries. These facts show that more and more people are underutilizing their garage when they may actually be in need of more usable space in their property. So why not put into consideration converting the garage into a new space that would be able to serve more purpose?

If you’ve decided to convert your garage, you’d probably want to know the how long the project will take. There are a wide range of factors that can determine the duration of a garage conversion project. These factors include:

• If the foundation needs reinforcing

• If the floors, walls, or roofs are in a bad condition.

• If the ceiling height needs some raising

• If the insulation required in newer builds.

All aforementioned factors will make the garage conversion project take longer than expected. However, in normal situations garage conversions are relatively quick to complete once you start the building works. A single-car conversion will usually take about 3 to 4 weeks to complete depending on the existing garage’s structure.

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.

How long will my garage conversion take?

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.
