If you have a garage, but hardly use it, a garage conversion could be a great way to make the most of the space you already have. It’s also cheaper than other home expansion projects, such as extensions and loft conversions, and a garage conversion has the added benefit of not stealing space from your garden either. 

You can turn your existing garage into a bedroom with an ensuite bathroom, convert it into a home office, or even create an open plan kitchen. Garage conversions offer plenty of options. 

A garage conversion can also add a lot of value to your home. Depending on what you want to use your new living space for, on average, a home office could add £11,706 to the value of your property, while a home gym could add £11,927, and a new dining room and lounge (separate from the kitchen), could add £12,279, making it a valuable home improvement project. 

If you’re thinking of converting your unused garage into a new room for your home, this cost guide covers everything you need to know. 

On average, a garage conversion costs between £18,000 and £28,300. 

Keep in mind that cost of labour is higher in London and the Southeast, sometimes by up to 20% on average.

Conclusions

Alongside loft conversions, garage conversions are one of the best ways to make the most of the space you already have, without having to build an extension, which is more expensive. 

Adding space and value to your home (over £11,000 on average) a garage conversion comes with plenty of benefits. Not to mention that it gives you a lot of creative licence to turn that unused space into a gym, an office, part of your kitchen, or even an ensuite bedroom.
