Across Wales you find valley terraces, coastal towns, rural stone houses and newer estates, so access, slopes and local materials all feature in the design.
What do you get with a garage conversion?
Most integral garages already have the walls and roof; what they need is a new insulated floor, an infilled front wall with a window, and heating. We check whether your permitted development rights are intact, handle building control and finish the room ready to use.
- Planning and building regulations checks under Welsh rules
- Planning check (some estates remove permitted development rights)
- Building control application

How is a garage conversion approved in Caerphilly?
Welsh projects need planning clearance from the council under Welsh rules, building regulations approval under the Welsh approved documents, and party wall notices where the work affects a neighbour’s wall or foundations.
In Wales, converting an attached garage usually does not need planning permission unless rights have been removed by condition or the building is listed.
What should I think about before starting?
- A bedroom needs an escape window or a protected route out.
- Losing a parking space can matter on streets with permit parking.
What are the steps?
- Tell us about the project. Call, use the guide price tool or send the form with a few photos and a postcode.
