Everstone Build & Development

A garage conversion typically follows these steps:

Planning & Design:

Check if the conversion falls under permitted development or requires planning permission.
Design the new space, considering ventilation, insulation, and fire safety.

Structural & Building Work:
Strengthen the floor if necessary.
Add damp-proofing, insulation, and ventilation.
Replace the garage door with a new wall, window, or entrance.

Services Installation:
Install or extend electrical wiring, heating, and plumbing if needed.

Interior Finishing:
Plastering, flooring, and painting to complete the space.

Building Regulations Compliance:
The conversion must meet UK Building Regulations (Part L for energy efficiency, Part P for electrics, and Part B for fire safety).
A final inspection ensures compliance, and a completion certificate is issued.

I handle the entire process, ensuring your garage conversion is compliant, cost-effective, and adds value to your home.

A loft is suitable for conversion if:

Head Height: At least 2.2m from the floor to the highest point of the ceiling—lower heights may require a roof lift.

Roof Type: A traditional roof with rafters is easier to convert than modern trussed roofs, which need reinforcement.

Floor Strength: The existing ceiling joists may need strengthening to support a new liveable space.

Access: There must be space for a safe staircase, following UK Building Regulations (Part K).

Planning Permission: Most loft conversions fall under permitted development unless they extend beyond the roofline.

If you’re unsure, I can conduct a free site visit to assess suitability and advise on the best approach.

A loft conversion follows these key stages:

Survey & Design:
Assess headroom, roof structure, and feasibility.
Prepare architectural plans and check if planning permission is required.

Structural Work:
Reinforce floor joists and install steel beams if needed.
Modify the roof structure if converting with a dormer or mansard.

Windows & Staircase Installation:
Fit Velux windows or dormers for natural light.
Build a staircase following UK Building Regulations Part K.

Insulation & Services:
Install insulation (to meet Part L energy efficiency).
Extend electrics, plumbing, and heating.

Interior Finishing:
Plastering, flooring, and decorating.

Final Inspection & Certification:
The conversion must meet UK Building Regulations before obtaining a completion certificate.
