Our Garage Conversion Process

At The Garage Experts, we believe that a clear, well-managed process is just as important as quality workmanship. That’s why we follow a straightforward, proven approach that keeps you informed, minimises disruption, and delivers outstanding results.

From initial enquiry to final completion, here’s how your garage conversion project works.

Step 1

Initial Enquiry & Consultation

Your journey starts with a simple conversation. Once you contact us, we’ll discuss:

  • Your ideas and requirements
  • How you plan to use the space
  • Your budget expectations
  • Any initial questions you may have

We provide honest, practical advice based on over 25 years of personal experience, helping you understand what’s possible and what will work best for your home in Newent or the surrounding areas of Gloucestershire.

STEP 2

Site Visit & Assessment

Every garage is different, which is why we always carry out a site visit before providing a quotation.

During this visit, we assess:

  • The condition and structure of your existing garage
  • Insulation, damp-proofing, and ventilation requirements
  • Access, layout, and integration with the main house
  • Any structural work required

This ensures we can offer accurate advice and realistic pricing — no guesswork, no surprises.

step 3

Detailed Quotation & Specification

Following the site visit, we provide a clear, detailed quotation outlining:

  • The scope of work
  • What is included in the price
  • Materials and finishes
  • Estimated timescales

Our pricing is transparent and honest. We’ll talk you through everything and answer any questions before work begins.

STEP 4

Preparation & Scheduling

Once you’re happy to proceed, we agree:

  • A start date
  • A realistic project timeline
  • Access arrangements and working hours

As a small, local team based in Newent, we only take on a limited number of projects at a time. This allows us to give your conversion the attention it deserves and maintain high standards throughout.

STEP 5

Garage Conversion Build Stage

This is where your transformation begins. Our experienced team carries out all work professionally and efficiently, including:

  • Structural alterations and openings
  • Insulation, damp-proofing, and compliance work
  • Electrical and plumbing installations
  • Internal walls, ceilings, and plastering

We work cleanly, safely, and with respect for your home, keeping disruption to a minimum.

STEP 6

Finishing & Quality Checks

As the project nears completion, we focus on the finishing details:

  • Plaster finishes
  • Doors, flooring, and fixtures
  • Final electrical and plumbing checks

We carry out thorough quality inspections to ensure everything meets our standards and complies with relevant building regulations.

FINAL STEP

Completion & Handover

Once the conversion is complete, we walk you through the finished space to ensure you’re completely happy.

We’ll:

  • Confirm all agreed work has been completed
  • Address any final questions
  • Ensure the site is left clean and tidy

Your satisfaction is our priority, and we don’t consider the job finished until you’re happy with the result.
