Garage conversions in Keston

Our Keston team converts attached and integral garages into finished rooms for homes in and around BR2. 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 Keston 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 London Borough of Bromley 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 London Borough of Bromley on your behalf. Every inspection is booked and attended by us. Our guide to the process explains each stage.

Questions from Keston homeowners

Is planning permission needed for a garage conversion in Keston?

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 London Borough of Bromley before work starts.

Who handles Building Control and the engineer in Keston?

We do. We make the Building Control application for the London Borough of Bromley 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 Keston 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 Keston 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 Keston?

Yes. Our Keston team covers BR2 and nearby areas including Petts Wood, West Wickham, Bromley, Chislehurst, Orpington. Each has its own local number, listed on the areas page.
