Reasons to convert your garage.

What do you use your garage for these days? With cars getting bigger and houses getting smaller, more and more garages are turning into wasted space. These days, garages tend to get filled up with forgotten fitness equipment, old toys and useless memorabilia that would take more time to throw out than it is actually worth.

​

In days gone by the family car had to be protected from the elements – but that was before they were routinely galvanised. So, if you can park in the street, don’t let this valuable asset go to waste! Converting a garage can be one of the most cost effective ways to add space to your home and it can even add extra value too – a garage conversion’s value will rise in tandem with the house price.

​

Moreover, a well-made garage conversion can bring extra daylight into your house. If your garage is attached to the side of your house, installing glazed doors for access will make that adjoining room lighter and more airy! Let’s take a look at some of the most popular uses for that defunct old garage:

Another Lounge

An Extra Bathroom

A Play Room

A Games Room

A Larger Kitchen

A Home Cinema

A Home Gym

A Home Office

Another lounge is actually the most popular garage conversion. Think that having two lounges is excessive? Just wait till those cute kids turn into teenagers – you may not want to snuggle up on the sofa with your son and his spotty mates every night of the weekend. On the other hand, if you work for yourself and pay for office space elsewhere, perhaps you should size up the cost of having your own home-office, factoring in the added value to your house when you come to sell it.

In comparison to building an extension or a loft conversion, converting your garage will most likely add the most extra floor space for the least extra expense. Read more about the conversion process below!.
