Planning Permission: Do You Need It?
In most cases, planning permission is not required for garage conversions in West London, as they fall under Permitted Development rights. However, you will need to meet certain criteria:
- The converted space must be internal only (no extension or elevation changes)
- It must remain a residential use (not a business premise)
- If you live in a conservation area or listed building, special rules apply
Need clarity? We’ll check your eligibility free of charge.
Building Regulations Compliance
Even if you don't need planning permission, your conversion must comply with building regulations. We handle this on your behalf, including:
- Structural integrity and load-bearing alterations
- Thermal insulation and energy efficiency
- Fire safety (including escape routes)
- Ventilation, plumbing and electrical standards
The Process: What to Expect
- Free initial inspection and consultation
- Design and quote proposal
- Planning and building control applications
- Site preparation and structural works
- Installation (first fix + second fix)
- Final inspection, snagging and handover
Expect disruption. We’re honest about this. A garage conversion takes 3–6 weeks and will generate dust, noise, and temporary access restrictions. Our team takes steps to minimise this through dust control, daily clean-ups, and respectful work practices.
