From initial engagement to the completion of the building project, it has been a pleasure. The management was communicative and regular & artisan quality of work top notch. Highly recommended.
Guy Worsick
I cannot say enough positive things about Patrick and his band of merry men. From the start, clear communication, an affable yet knowledgeable manner, professional and top class workmanship. We made a great decision by going with Top Secret for our property, and we continue to be pleased with every aspect of the service and hence this glowing recommendation l. Thank you all for making a potentially difficult process as painless and enjoyable as possible. More...
How can someone tell if their Garage is suitable for conversion?
To determine if a garage is suitable for conversion, consider these key factors:
1) Structure and Size: Ensure the garage is large enough with a solid foundation and adequate ceiling height (typically 7.5–8 feet).
2) Building Codes and Permits: Check local zoning laws and obtain necessary permits for the conversion.
3) Insulation and Weatherproofing: Garages usually need extra insulation and weatherproofing to meet living space standards.
4) Windows and Natural Light: Adequate ventilation and windows may be required by building codes.
5) Utilities: Ensure access to electrical, plumbing, and heating/cooling systems.
6) Access and Parking: Ensure the new space has proper access from the house, and consider alternative parking solutions if needed.
