Garage conversions in Barnes
We convert garages in Barnes and the surrounding SW13 streets into rooms you can live in every day, from spare bedrooms to quiet offices.
The four conversions we specialise in are a bedroom, a living room, a home office and a gym. Whichever you choose, it begins with a free survey and an itemised fixed price and ends with a Building Control completion certificate covering the Richmond upon Thames Council area.
If the conversion alters the structure, for example a new front wall, a knock-through to the hall or a steel beam, the design comes from a structural engineer we appoint. We handle the Building Control inspector for Richmond upon Thames Council, including booking and attending every visit. Read the guide to the process for more detail.

Questions from Barnes homeowners
Is planning permission needed for a garage conversion in Barnes?
Usually not. Converting an attached or integral garage without making it bigger is normally permitted development. Listed homes, conservation areas, estates where those rights were removed and detached garages can be exceptions, so we check with Richmond upon Thames Council before work starts.
Who handles Building Control and the engineer in Barnes?
We do. We make the Building Control application for the Richmond upon Thames Council area, appoint a structural engineer for any openings or beams, attend every inspection and give you the completion certificate when the room is signed off.
How long does a garage conversion in Barnes take?
Around two to three weeks on site for a single garage. A knock-through, an en-suite or a larger garage adds time, and we agree the programme with you first.
What does a garage conversion in Barnes cost?
We price after a free survey, because the cost depends on your garage, the room you want and the structural work involved. The quote is fixed and itemised. Our cost guide explains what affects it.
Do you cover areas near Barnes?
Yes. Our Barnes team covers SW13 and nearby areas including North Sheen, Putney, Fulham, Richmond, Brentford. Each has its own local number, listed on the areas page.
