If you have a rarely used garage, why not think about a conversion within Dalkeith and make the most from the home. Look at up to four free prices with our service and find the top price for a conversion.

One of the main benefits with a garage conversion is that the space can be transformed quickly for the extra room you will need, whether it's for a growing family or simply to add to the value of your property.

A garage conversion suggests you won't have to move for extra space, which will save thousands of pounds on solicitor fees, estate agent payments and stamp duty. And the extra space could be transformed into whatever you need, no matter if it's an extension to the living area or kitchen, or perhaps a separate room entirely.

With the structure already in place it's evident that a garage conversion will probably be less costly than building an extension too, and won't eat important space within your garden. With the exterior not likely to change too, it's an alternative way to get around restrictions for conservation areas and also listed buildings.

Dalkeith

Dalkeith is a town in Midlothian, Scotland, on the River Esk. It was granted a burgh of barony in 1401 and a burgh of regality in 1540. The settlement of Dalkeith expanded south-westwards from its 12th-century castle, which is recognized today as Dalkeith Palace. With reference to the 2011 Census, Dalkeith has a permanent population of around 12342 people. The town is formed of four distinct places: Dalkeith proper with its town centre and cultural core, with Eskbank to its west and Woodburn to its east. Eskbank is the well-heeled area of Dalkeith with many sizeable Victorian and newer homes. To the south of Eskbank is Newbattle with its abbey. Woodburn is a mainly working class council estate. The structure on High Street of Dalkeith, now described as the Tolbooth, started to be utilized as a tolbooth for the administration of the town in the early 18th century. The plaque above the door reads '1648' however this was taken from another structure and does not mark when the Tolbooth was installed. Operating principally as a place for law and order, it featured a prison in the west half, a court room on the east, and a dungeon understood as the 'great void' listed below ground. In front of the building there is a circle of stones to highlight the area where the last public hanging in Dalkeith took place in 1827. The town is also the home of other noteworthy structures, including a Watch Tower at the cemetery, a water tower and a several iron mills dating back to the early 19th century. For all of your house upgrades, keep an eye out for respected contractors in Dalkeith to guarantee good quality.

FAQs

Will my garage conversion cause disruption to the rest of the house?

It shouldn’t do. Most companies will do all the interior work first, and the last job to do will be creating the opening from the house to the conversion. A reputable company will make sure they cause as little disruption as possible during this time.

do you need an architect for a garage conversion?
Have you decided to convert that under-utilized space ( garage) in your home to a more habitable space where you can do anything asides general storage or parking a car? If yes, then you’d probably want to know where to start or if you’d require an architect to get started. Well, you’re not alone! This is one of the most frequently asked questions when it comes to garage conversions and reasonably so. Talking about where to get started, when it comes to home improvement projects the first step to take is determining whether or not you’d require a planning permission or if your proposed garage conversion is covered under permitted development rights. Once you’ve been able to conclude on that, the next step is deciding whether you’re going to complete the project yourself, hire the services of tradesmen or employing a builder. And this ultimately brings us to the question of whether you’ll need an architect for a garage conversion. To get started, it’s highly recommended that you employ the services of a professional architect or an architectural technologist to assist in designing your garage conversion. However, most garage conversion projects are straightforward with no complex changes to be made so far you wish to avoid applying for a planning permission and staying within the set guidelines of the permitted development rights. In such events, if you’re properly trained and well experienced in the field, then it may be cost effective to design your garage conversion by yourself. It should, however, be noted that it all depends on your personal preferences and budget. If you’re on tight budget and don’t mind a straightforward design, you can save cost by not hiring an architect.
do i need planning permission for a garage conversion?

Are you thinking about converting your garage into a new space? Be it a new bedroom, gym, library or playroom, one thing you’ll have to consider before getting started is whether or not you’re going to require a planning permission. Unlike extensions that needs additional space, garage conversion is all about changing the existing structure of a space that’s already available to you - your garage. As a result, these projects are mostly covered by a planning policy that’s a bit different.

For a garage conversion, it’s very unlikely that you’ll need a planning permission. As a matter of fact, only 10 percent of garage conversions has been estimated to need a full planning permission, with the others coming under the permitted development rights. The permitted development rights, however, only provides coverage for home improvements that’s internal which implies that so far you’re not trying to enlarge your garage, you’ll not require a planning permission. But if otherwise, you’ll have to submit an application before commencing your project.

If you’re looking to comply with the permitted development rights, then your project must comply with some specific guidelines. These rules include the following:

• The work should be internal. No plans to enlarge or extend the existing garage.

• You should make sure that the materials used in carrying out the garage conversion is the same with the materials used in building the existing house.

• The building should not be extended.

You may, however, require a planning permission if you’re going to change a detached garage into a living space which could be a bedroom, small annexe or a living room.

Some houses excluded from the permitted development rights include flats, listed buildings, some new developments and most homes in a conservation area.

Will the company deal with the building control application?

Most companies will make the building control application on your behalf and ensure that all the work is completed to the right standards. When a building inspector has inspected it, you’ll get a certificate. It usually takes around 6-8 weeks after completion to come.
