Garage Conversions
in Somerset
If your garage has become a dumping ground for tools and boxes, a professional garage conversion in Somerset can unlock its true potential. We specialise in turning cold, concrete spaces into warm, fully integrated rooms that serve your lifestyle.
Our Garage Conversion Services
A successful garage conversion in Somerset is about more than just a new floor and a window.
It requires a deep understanding of the area’s varied building styles and strict adherence to Building Regulations.
We handle the full structural and aesthetic transformation to ensure your new space feels like an original part of your property.

Integral & Attached Garage Conversions
If your garage is part of your main house structure, we specialise in opening up internal walls to create an effortless flow. We focus on matching floor levels exactly and ensuring that the new room’s insulation and heating are fully integrated.

Detached Garage Conversions
A detached garage offers the opportunity for a self-contained “annexe,” a professional garden studio, or a home gym. We handle everything from running new utility lines across your property to ensuring the building is fully thermally efficient.

Part Garage
Conversions
You don’t have to lose your entire garage. We can create “split” conversions where the front remains a smaller storage area for bikes and tools, while the rear is transformed into a high-spec utility room, cloakroom, or home office.

Seamless Exterior
House Matching
The most successful conversions are the ones you can’t spot from the street. We take great pride in our masonry work, sourcing bricks, stone, or render that perfectly matches your home’s original exterior.
Frequently Asked Questions
In most cases, converting a garage into a living space falls under Permitted Development, meaning planning permission isn’t required. However, you may need permission if you live in a Conservation Area, a listed building, or if your property has specific planning conditions (common in some newer Yeovil developments).
We can help you check these details before work begins.
A standard single garage conversion is one of our fastest projects, typically taking between 10 to 15 working days. Even more complex double garage conversions or those involving new plumbing for an en-suite are usually completed within 3 weeks.
Yes. We often design part-conversions where we install an internal stud wall. This allows you to keep a few metres of space at the front (accessible by the original or a smaller garage door) for garden equipment, while the rest of the space is transformed into a habitable room.
A professionally executed garage conversion in Somerset can add as much as 10% to 15% to your home’s market value by increasing the habitable square footage.
What Could Your Garage Become?
The beauty of a garage conversion is its versatility. Because we manage all trades in-house, we can create a variety of functional spaces, such as:
-
Home Offices – Quiet, professional spaces designed for modern remote work.
-
Guest Annexes – Self-contained ground-floor bedrooms with en-suite facilities.
-
Kitchen & Utilities – Breaking through from the main house to create a large, open-plan family hub.
-
Home Gyms & Studios – Durable, insulated spaces tailored for fitness or creative hobbies.
-
Playrooms & Snugs – Safe, warm areas for children or a dedicated media room for the family.
