I'm changing my garage into a playroom and am unsure how to go about it. Can anyone who has done it let me know?
I've got in touch with planning and they are happy as the plans for the original garage when it was build with a room above didn't say anything about keeping a car in it so I can go ahead.
I've contacted building regulations who want me to complete a building notice and give £450.
I'm planning on putting a window in place of the garage door, and also putting a door from my porch into the playroom.
I can't afford a garage conversion company but my dad is a retired electrician and good with wood so planning on doing most of it for me, my mindees dad is a plasterer and his brother is a builder so going to do the front wall and I know a window company for the window and door.
Is there any advice from those that have done it?
