How can someone tell if their Garage is suitable for conversion?
There are many types of garages, the typical least expensive option is the garage enclosure built at ground floor level forming part of the original house footprint. Therefore the superstructure or main building enclosure must be sound or at least of sufficient size to consider this kind of conversion into additional habitable space.
Run us through the different stages of the Garage conversion process - what's involved?
1. Superstructure condition, assess building elements and extent of any additional reinforcements required;
2. Design, evaluate design constrains and potential layout against the owner's requirements;
3. Feasibility, from 1 and 2 above a basic costs exercise is required; so the owner can be certain of his capability to intervene and complete the project.
4. Planning, arrange Local Authority submissions including all relevant information.
5. Tender, arrange Building Regulations and SE pack along with Scope of Works for tender.
6. Prepare Party Wall paperwork to avoid delays;
7. Building, once suitable contractor selected decide if PM or self-administration path matches the client expectations;
8. Completion & hand over, prepare a snagging list and arrange for BCO final inspection in lieu of Completion Certificate.
How can someone tell if their loft is suitable for conversion?
Aside of the imposed particular planning restrictions like Conservation Area or Listed Building, generally speaking the available internal headroom height, proposed layout and building access constrains would dictate the feasibility of this type of work.

Refurbishment
Whether you are looking to refurbish your existing office space, renovate an unused part of your building, or transform a section of your property for another purpose, Riobuild Building Services has the skills and experience to ensure your project is a complete success. With previous experience in many different sectors we’ve had to adapt our style of working to suit each specific project and can negotiate the complexities of each working environment.
Our refurbishment projects often occur in live working environments, so we ensure that we cause as little disruption to your business as possible, whilst also ensuring that the work is completed on time and on budget. We systematically plan our refurbishment process so that the internal transformation of the building does not interfere or create too much disturbance for the public.
For over 10 years we have been helping London businesses identify their development goals and produce modern interior design that aligns with their company culture. Our services include residential refurbishments, restaurant and office fit out, joinery, carpentry, flooring, building works, electrical and plumbing installations and painting and decorating. But we do everything from initial feasibility study to the completion and handover.
