Garage conversion specialists in Wingate

For those who have a rarely used garage area, why not consider a conversion in Wingate and make the most from the home. Check around 4 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 converted quickly for the extra room you need, regardless of whether it's for a growing family or just to add to the price of your home.

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

With the structure already in place it's evident that a garage conversion will probably be less expensive than constructing an extension too, and won't consume important space in your garden. With the exterior unlikely to change as well, it's a good way to get around rules for conservation areas as well as listed buildings.

Wingate

Wingate is a town in County Durham, England. Wingate is a previous pit village with a mix of 19th-century, post-war, and extra recent housing developments. It was initially occupied by around 30 farmers prior to 1839 when coal was uncovered. It is located in the East of County Durham, 3 miles southern west of Peterlee, and also 7 miles north west of Hartlepool. As with a lot of villages in the area, it proliferated with the development of coal-mining in the area. The name Wingate is claimed to derive from the Anglo-Saxon words windig (gusty) as well as geat (road) meaning gusty road. Like all County Durham towns, homeowners are understood to speak the pitmatic dialect although new housing developments has actually seen a sharp rise in the town's population. An electoral ward in the very same name exists. This ward stretches north eastern to Peterlee and also has an overall population, taken at the 2011 census, of 10,302.

FAQs

do i need building regs for a garage conversion?

Are you considering converting your garage into a more usable space in your home? If yes, then you’d probably want to know if you’ll require building regs before converting the garage. The answer to this question is yes. Although you may not require planning approval to convert your garage into a more usable space, but you’d usually need approval under the Building Regulations.

When re-structuring your garage into a habitable space, the following should be taken into consideration: structural alterations, ventilation, moisture proofing, insulation, fireproofing, escape routes as well as the submission of a building building notice or full plan application to the local council in order to inform them about the planned project.

• Walls

You’ll require an approval if you plan to infill the garage door with a window and a new wall. This is because the garage may have been built of a shallow slab which implies that a new foundation would be needed for the new wall construction.

• Floor

Even though there’s a high possibility that the garage floor is strong enough for domestic use since its designed to withstand the weight of vehicles, you may however need to upgrade to make sure it suitable for both thermal insulation and damp proofing. In addition, there may also be the need to to alter the floor level in such a way that it matches that of the remaining parts of the house.

• Ventilation

According to the Building Regulations requirements, there’s a need for adequate ventilation for each individual rooms which includes garage conversions for general health purposes. What’s going to determine the ventilation level that’ll be required is the frequency at which the room is used. Ventilation can be provided through purge or simply opening the window or via trickle ventilation.

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.

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.
