Garage Conversion Pricing Guide

One of the most common questions we get is: "How much does a garage conversion cost in Edinburgh?"

While every project is unique, a standard single garage conversion typically ranges between £12,000 and £20,000 (+ VAT). This makes it one of the most cost-effective ways to add habitable space to your property compared to a traditional extension.

What Affects The Price?

  • Structural Work: Knocking through walls or reinforcing foundations.
  • Plumbing: Adding a bathroom or utility room requires extra drainage.
  • Electrics: Upgrading your consumer unit (fuse box) to handle the new load.
  • Windows & Doors: Matching specific brickwork or installing bi-fold doors.
  • Finishes: Choice of flooring (laminate vs hardwood) and heating options.
  • External Factors: Access to the site and skip permit requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. Do I need planning permission to convert my garage?

In most cases, garage conversions fall under "permitted development" rights, meaning you don't need full planning permission. However, if you live in a conservation area (like parts of Edinburgh) or a listed building, rules may differ. We can help check this for you.

2. How much does a garage conversion cost in Edinburgh?

Costs vary depending on the size and specifications (e.g., adding a bathroom). However, a standard single garage conversion is significantly cheaper than a house extension. Contact us for a free, accurate quote.

3. How long does the conversion take?

A typical single garage conversion takes between 2 to 4 weeks, depending on the complexity of the work.

4. Will the room be warm enough?

Absolutely. We install high-quality insulation in the floors, walls, and ceiling to ensure the room meets modern building regulations and stays warm year-round.

5. Can I keep some storage space?

Yes! We can build a "part conversion" where the front of the garage remains as storage for bikes/tools, while the back is converted into a usable room.

6. Do you handle building regulations?

Yes, all our work is carried out to meet current Building Regulations. We handle the application and arrange for the Building Inspector visits.

7. Will the conversion match my house?

We carefully match bricks, roof tiles (if applicable), and windows to ensure the conversion looks like an original part of your home.

8. Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, we provide a full guarantee on all our workmanship for your peace of mind.
