Garage conversions in Chatham

Our Chatham team converts attached and integral garages into finished rooms for homes in and around ME4. If yours has become a store for bikes, boxes and garden tools, turning it into living space adds a room without an extension or a move.

Homeowners in Chatham usually come to us with one of four rooms in mind: a bedroom, a living room, a home office or a gym. Each job starts with a free survey and an itemised fixed price, and finishes with a completion certificate from Building Control for the Medway Council area.

When the work changes the structure, such as taking out the garage door to build a new front wall, opening into the hallway or putting in a steel beam, we appoint a structural engineer and work with the Building Control inspector for Medway Council on your behalf. Every inspection is booked and attended by us. Our guide to the process explains each stage.

How a conversion works in Chatham

  1. 1

    Free survey and itemised price

    We visit your home in Chatham, measure the garage, check the slab, walls, roof and any damp, and talk through the room you want. A fixed price follows within a few days.

  2. 2

    Design and approval

    We draw the layout, have a structural engineer design any openings or beams, and send the application to Building Control for the Medway Council area.

  3. 3

    Building the room

    Out comes the garage door, in go the new wall and window, then insulation, wiring, heating and plaster. A single garage usually takes two to three weeks on site.

  4. 4

    Inspections and handover

    We arrange and attend each Building Control visit for Medway Council, finish the decorating and hand over the room with its completion certificate.

Questions from Chatham homeowners

Is planning permission needed for a garage conversion in Chatham?

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 Medway Council before work starts.

Who handles Building Control and the engineer in Chatham?

We do. We make the Building Control application for the Medway 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 Chatham 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 Chatham 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 Chatham?

Yes. Our Chatham team covers ME4 and nearby areas including Gillingham, Rochester, Walderslade, Higham, Rainham. Each has its own local number, listed on the areas page.
