Covering Daventry
Daventry is about 12 miles west of Northampton. We also cover Rugby (9 miles to the north-west), Towcester and Northampton.
Homes in the East Midlands
The East Midlands combines red-brick terraces in the cities with a lot of post-war and modern estate housing, so rear extensions, garage conversions and loft conversions are all common.
What goes into 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 check (some estates remove permitted development rights)
- Building control application
- Plastering, skirting and decoration-ready finish

Planning and building rules in Daventry
In England we deal with the council’s planning team for permission or a lawful development certificate, with building control (the council or a registered building control approver) for inspections, and with neighbours under the Party Wall etc. Act 1996 where it applies.
An internal garage conversion is usually permitted development in England unless the house is listed, an Article 4 direction applies, or it is on an estate where the planning permission removed permitted development rights.
What can affect a garage conversion?
- The garage floor is often lower than the house and needs raising.
- Losing a parking space can matter on streets with permit parking.
From first call to completion

- Survey at your house. We look at the existing structure, services and access, and agree what the design needs to achieve.
- Price and paperwork. The design is priced line by line, and we submit the planning and building control applications.
- Construction and completion. One site lead co-ordinates every trade through to the building control certificate.
