why move

WHY MOVE HOME WHEN YOU CAN STAY.

  • Why spend thousands of pounds on stamp duty, estate agents fees, legal costs and removal costs when you can stay.
  • Do you know that if you moved home the additional costs, on a home valued at £300,000, will be in excess of £25,000.

NO SALES PERSON WILL VISIT

  • In line with our professional code of conduct, we do not employ any sales staff.

DO I NEED PLANNING PERMISSION ?

  • No. If you are converting your existing garage you do not need planning permission. If you are able to either extend or build above the garage then you will need planning permission. If you require either an extension to your garage or to build over it we will handle the application for you.

WHAT IS INVOLVED IN CONVERTING A GARAGE?

  • We would normally recommend having a wooden floor, plastering the walls and ceiling, creating a door through to your hallway, creating one or more windows, installing power points and one or two radiators.
    You can either leave your garage door and we can brick up behind it or we can remove the garage door and create a new brick wall and install a window.

CONVERT YOUR GARAGE INTO?

  • Many people are converting their garages into all types of additional rooms. An extra living room, a T.V. room, a larger kitchen, a playroom, a nursery, an office, a bedroom or a combination of two rooms such as a living room and a downstairs W.C. or any combination of any other two rooms.
  • If you have an integral garage (built into your home) you could even extend at the rear.
  • If you have an annexed garage (a garage built next to and adjoining your house) you may be able, subject to planning consent, to convert the garage and to build a second story above.
  • We do not normally recommend converting a garage that is situated away from your house. It would not be economical.

HOW MUCH WILL IT COST?

  • Prices can start from as little as £4999.This is a very approximate guide for a basic conversion. If you decide to have additional work such as extra rooms, extra plumbing, installation of kitchen units or a bathroom, this will increase the price.
  • We will guide you and assist you on price at all times.
