A few quick answers. Your home may have different requirements.

ASK US A QUESTION
How much does a garage conversion cost in Edinburgh?

Every garage is different. Cost depends on its condition, size, intended use and finish. We provide a detailed quote following an assessment.

Do garage conversions require a building warrant?

Yes, a building warrant is required before converting a garage into habitable space in Scotland. We coordinate the drawings and application with our in-house architect.

Can you convert a garage on a newer housing development?

Often, yes. We check any planning conditions, title restrictions and parking requirements that may affect your particular development.

Will I need planning permission as well?

Not always. Planning permission is separate from a building warrant and depends on the property and proposed changes. We help check what applies.
