What to consider when planning your garage conversion
Firstly determine whether your garage can be converted. You also need to check your property deeds for any lease restrictions. The existing structure’s foundation, walls, and roof should be evaluated for soundness, which is the second most crucial factor. This will establish whether it can be transformed into a usable area.
Create design drawings using your ideas. You can better imagine your project with the aid of the drawings, and you can be confident that you understand the desired result before you start. Scaled drawings will also assist the builder in confirming the project’s final appearance, even down to the placement of radiators, light fixtures, and power outlets.
Planning Permission and Building Regulations Approval
As long as the work is internal and does not include expanding the property, planning approval is typically not needed to convert a garage into a living area. In some cases permitted development rights have been removed by the condition which may prevent a garage to be converted. Commonly this is the case for properties located in a housing estate in a conservation area, or a listed building. The conversion of a garage into a living space normally does not require planning approval as long as the work is inside and does not include expanding the property. In some circumstances, the restrictions that would forbid converting a property’s garage to approved development, include properties within housing estates, conservation areas, or listed buildings.
Due to the fact that this type of conversion includes “a change of use,” it typically requires clearance under the Building Regulations. Your project must be declared to your local council by submitting a building notice or full plans application. In order to provide a certificate of completion and ensure that everything is satisfactory and in line with the Building Regulations, a building control officer will likely need to inspect your conversion numerous times throughout the project.
