Do you need planning permission to convert a garage into an Airbnb?

If you are not enlarging the building and work is internal, planning permission isn't a requirement. If your garage conversion is a separate house, you need planning permission, regardless of who lives in it. When converting a garage to a habitable space, building regulations approval is needed.

The residential garage isn’t what it used to be. More than half the motoring population who owns a garage no longer uses it to park their cars. Instead, they are filling up with clutter, DIY equipment, and gardening tools. Today’s cars are designed to withstand the outdoors and better-equipped to remain secure. There are no practical reasons why they need a garage. It is the tea cosy of the motoring world, both becoming increasingly disused. Garage conversions in London serve a bigger purpose than sheltering cars or the overspill from our homes. Where every bit of livable space is precious, these are proving to be useful home improvement remedies.

Why convert your garage

It’s economical – the garage is an existing building, which eliminates costs for excavation and walls. Sometimes, you can even save money on the roof. Convenience – converting your garage is speedier than building an extension. It is also less disruptive to your everyday home life, which is separate from the garage. It adds value – According to Nationwide, a garage conversion can add between 10% to 20% in value to your property price. No sacrifice – unlike house extensions that use up your garden space and sometimes cut off natural light, a garage conversion does neither. Space for storage, too – if you don’t want to lose out on essential storage space, you can partially convert the garage or build a double-storey garage conversion. Amalgamate for more space – if you are building an extension, a simultaneous garage conversion can decide the new floor plan early on. If your garage is attached, you can knock through walls to integrate it with the rest of the house. To rent out – a double-storey or a detached garage conversion works as a studio apartment or a small annexe you can rent out.

As you consider the design and size of your structure, you can help keep your building cost-effective by using Standard Lengths and Widths. See the chart and diagrams below. Our pole buildings can be built in almost any size. You determine the size that fits your needs. However, working with “typical” increments is economically beneficial to you.

After you’ve determined your commercial pole building, pole barn garage, equestrian barn, or agricultural building size, your building site should be graded to prepare the site. The site should be graded a minimum of 3′ larger all the way around the building. Ex: a 30′ x 40′ building should have a leveled area 36′ x 46′. It is highly recommended that you have your site graded well before the building is built.
