What is included in a garage conversion in Ebbw Vale?

- Garage door removal and brick infill with window
- Heating, electrics and data points

How is a garage conversion approved in Ebbw Vale?
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 Ebbw Vale homeowners check first?
- Some new-build estates have a planning condition keeping garages for parking.
- The garage floor is often lower than the house and needs raising.
