C&J Construction & Roofing LTD converts garages into usable living space across Wakefield and West Yorkshire. It is one of the best value ways to add a room, because the walls, roof and floor already exist. Most of the work is insulation, damp proofing and making the external finish look like it was always part of the house.
The giveaway on a bad garage conversion is always the front. A panel of new brick that does not match, sitting where the door used to be, with a window plonked in the middle of it. We take time over that detail, matching the brick or render and setting the new window to line through with the others on the elevation.
What a conversion involves:
- Garage door removed and the opening filled in matching brick, stone or render
- New window or door fitted to line through with the rest of the elevation
- Floor raised, insulated and damp proofed to meet building regulations
- Walls insulated and dry lined, with a cavity check and damp proof course
- Roof or ceiling insulated to current standards
- New electrics, sockets, lighting and heating extended from the house
- Plastering, flooring, skirtings and decoration
- Building control application and sign off
We convert integral garages, attached garages and, where the structure allows, detached garages into offices and annexes.
