Northern Ireland has a high proportion of detached houses and bungalows outside the cities, which often suit side extensions, rear extensions and upward extensions.

What is 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)
  • Heating, electrics and data points
  • Plastering, skirting and decoration-ready finish

Planning and building rules in Dungannon

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 should Dungannon homeowners check first?

  • A bedroom needs an escape window or a protected route out.
  • Losing a parking space can matter on streets with permit parking.

How does the project run?

  1. Send us the details. Give us a postcode, a rough idea of size and some photos, by phone, form or the guide price tool.
  2. Free site visit. We measure up, look at access, drains and the structure, and talk through options and budget.
  3. Price and paperwork. The design is priced line by line, and we submit the planning and building control applications.
  4. Build and hand over. Our teams build to the programme, building control inspects, and you get the completion paperwork at the end.
