What is a garage conversion?
A garage conversion turns an attached, integral or detached garage into a habitable room by infilling the door opening, insulating the floor, walls and roof, and adding windows, heating and power. It is one of the quickest and cheapest ways to add a room.
- Planning check (some estates remove permitted development rights)
- Building control application
- Plastering, skirting and decoration-ready finish
What will a garage conversion cost?

Do you need permission for a garage conversion in Craigavon?
Projects in Northern Ireland need planning clearance from one of the eleven councils and building control approval, also from the council. The Party Wall etc. Act does not extend to Northern Ireland, so work near neighbours is agreed directly and documented carefully.
In Northern Ireland, garage conversions often do not need planning permission if the external changes are minor; building control approval is needed.
What can change the price or programme?
- The garage floor is often lower than the house and needs raising.
- Losing a parking space can matter on streets with permit parking.
What are the steps?
- Send us the details. Give us a postcode, a rough idea of size and some photos, by phone, form or the guide price tool.
- Free site visit. We measure up, look at access, drains and the structure, and talk through options and budget.
- Price and paperwork. The design is priced line by line, and we submit the planning and building control applications.
- Build and hand over. Our teams build to the programme, building control inspects, and you get the completion paperwork at the end.
