Garage conversion house extension: Garage conversion is becoming a more popular way to increase the ground floor living space in homes. A single garage conversion will add approximately one hundred and fifty square feet of floor space whilst the double garage adds twice the space. The garage is usually in the best place for the additional home extension without reducing natural daylight to any other rooms. Most garage conversions add additional daylight to the home.

Garage Conversion Company: Vogue Construction has a dedicated garage conversion company with building teams who convert a garage to living space. The teams ensure that the building works are completed to the highest standards meeting or passing every building regulation. Quality building works complete on time by dedicated garage conversion builders. When a garage conversion is started our team are onsite every workday until the project is complete. We only use employed staff to ensure quality of work and when the labour is on which project. When Vogue arrange for the skilled staff to be on site they turn up and complete the work on schedule.

Garage conversion special finishes: A completed garage conversion should blend into the home so it does not look like a converted garage. Every brick is bonded to the existing walls (cutting each brick into the existing brick bond). Bricks are always matched to the existing house although the brick match will be good because of weathering of the existing they are unlikely to fully match. We can colour match all the bricks using special finishes if you already have some bricks on your home that don’t match the rest of the house our special finishes team can if required match those bricks at the same time.

Garage conversion adds additional light: Making a new opening from the garage into the hall, living room, dinning room or kitchen with glazed doors will add fresh new natural light into your home.

Garage conversion planning permission: Generally planning permission for a garage conversion is not required. Vogue garage conversion design team will on every project contact the local authority to ensure this is the case and if required Vogue will obtain the permission required.

Garage conversion building regulations: Building regulations are always required on garage conversions. The local building inspector will want to see that the building is being converted correctly. Today’s insulation standards are quite high and particular attention needs to be given to the insulation of your converted garage. The inspector will also be keen to make sure that the correct damp proof membrane is in place to eliminate damp. Converting a garage without the correct permissions will make selling your home very difficult. Solicitors are now checking that garage conversions are converted with the permission and standards imposed by the building control department.
