Before the garage conversion

Garages are often not used for the purposes they were built for, and so by making them part of the home they are no longer just a dumping ground.

As part of our service, we will liaise with your local planning department to verify that planning permission is not required, and we will submit a building notice to the council and arrange all the necessary inspections to obtain building regulation approval. If planning permission is required, Barrett Kent will arrange this for you.

If you love where you live but need extra room then a garage conversion is a great way in which to increase your downstairs living space and a fantastic alternative to moving home - adding space and value at a fraction of the cost.

In most cases, planning permission is not required when planning your garage conversion.

We are members of the Federation of Master Builders (FMB) and European Builders Confederation (EBC) and offer a personal and professional service from your initial no obligation survey through to project completion. Whilst working on your Garage Conversion we ensure minimum disruption to you and your home.
