Planning permission is a system where local authorities can consent to building works by granting permission for the proposed work. Garage conversions will usually not require planning permission, so long as the work is internal and you do not intend to expand the structure of your home. Garage conversions are usually protected by permitted development rights, which cover a variety of home improvement work. However, these rights have been rescinded in some areas by local authorities, particularly in new builds, so it is always worth verifying with your local authority. If you are preparing to undertake a garage conversion on a listed building or live in a conservation area, you will require planning permission. Furthermore, if the walls of your garage are shared walls with a neighbouring property, you will require a Party Wall Agreement. You must comply with all building regulations related to your garage conversion whether or not you need planning permission. These building regulations cover aspects of the conversion like insulation, escape routes, fire proofing and ventilation, so it is generally a good idea to utilise an architect to draw up technical drawings and approve designs in order to ensure compliance with these regulations. You will likely still need to submit plans describing the change of use of the garage to your local authority. If planning permission is considered from the start of the project, it is much less likely that there will be any trouble further down the road. The vast majority of planning permission applications in England are approved.
