Garage Conversions
Planning permission is not usually required, providing the work is internal and does not involve enlarging the building.
If you live in a new house or a Conservation Area, it is likely that the Council may have removed your permitted development rights meaning that you may need planning permission to convert your garage.
Where work is proposed to a listed building, listed building consent may be required.
If you are thinking of turning your garage in to an office to work from home you should check the Working from Home page.
