The Brief

A family in Romford had been making do with a single integral garage that was being used for storage. With the household growing, they needed a proper living space — somewhere usable day-to-day — without the disruption and cost of a full extension.

They approached Fox Conversions looking for a straightforward, fixed-price solution that would be finished quickly, meet building regulations, and feel like a natural part of the home.

What We Did

We carried out a free site survey first to assess the existing structure, floor levels, and what would be needed to bring the space up to building regulation standard. A fixed quote was provided before any work began.

The scope of work included:

  • Full insulation upgrade to walls, floor, and ceiling
  • New electrics — sockets, lighting, and consumer unit connection
  • New windows and an external door to improve light and access
  • Floor build-up and new flooring throughout
  • Plastering and full decoration
  • Building regulations application and final sign-off

 

The build was completed in 3 weeks with a small, focused team. No juggling between sites — the project was seen through from start to finish before we moved on.

The Result

What was previously an underused garage is now a warm, finished living room that the family use every day. Building control sign-off was achieved on completion, meaning the space is fully compliant and adds genuine value to the property.

Total project cost came in at £15,000 – £20,000, inclusive of all drawings, building regulations, and a complete finish.
