Covering Merseyside
Our garage conversions service in Merseyside covers Liverpool, Birkenhead, St Helens and Southport and more.
Homes in the North West
Terraced housing is a defining feature of many North West towns, which brings party walls and narrow access into most projects, with more space to extend on suburban semis.
What do you get with 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.
- Garage door removal and brick infill with window
- Heating, electrics and data points
- Plastering, skirting and decoration-ready finish

What approvals does a garage conversion need in England?
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. We check the original permission for your house.
What can change the price or programme?
- The garage floor is often lower than the house and needs raising.
- A bedroom needs an escape window or a protected route out.
How does the project run?
- Tell us about the project. Call, use the guide price tool or send the form with a few photos and a postcode.
- 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.
- We build it. Work follows an agreed programme, with inspections at each stage and a final sign-off.
