Garage Conversions in Caterham
If you have a garage that is underused, it makes perfect sense to have it converted into a space you can enjoy. Whether you desire office space, an extra bedroom or have ideas to open up your garage to extend another room, anything is possible.
Garage conversions in Caterham have become popular as a means for homeowners to increase the amount of usable living space in their home. Because the garage is already built (be it barebones) no planning permission is required to proceed with the project, so long as the conversion doesn’t extend the house outward.
In our opinion, garage conversions are an even better choice than attic conversions because they are more affordable and can give you a greater return, with most estate agencies agreeing it can add 10 to 15% to the value of a house.
How much does a garage conversion in Caterham cost?
The average cost to convert a garage in the Caterham area is £8,000 for a small garage and £15,000 for a large garage. Your garage conversion will probably fall somewhere between these two figures. The price depends on the square footage of your garage and the amount of work required to make it a habitable room.
These prices include reconfiguring the external wall to remove the garage door and replace it with a wall and window, raising the floor level to match your house, raising and creating the roof to match the floor, and boarding and plastering everything. The electrics and central heating will also be connected.
How long does a garage conversion take?
Garage conversions in Caterham typically take 2 to 3 weeks to complete with most projects falling somewhere in the middle.
The work is not disruptive because it can be carried out while you are at work and while your house is unoccupied. Your contractor will not require access to your main house so you can keep this locked or leave your key with them.
