Garage & Cellar Conversions

The best way to add living space and value to your home if you don’t have the room to extend elsewhere

The popularity of cellar and garage conversions in London has grown exponentially in recent years. With the costs and hassle associated with moving to a new house, more and more people are choosing to maximise the usable space within their home instead.

Depending on the year and location of the original construction, many houses across London have existing cellar spaces and garages, which often provide the homeowners with the option of converting mere storage or wasted areas into inspirational new rooms. Not only does this give you a way of increasing your living space but can also have the benefit of adding real value to your property and making it a more desirable prospect for future buyers. It also prevents you from losing valuable outdoor areas and incurring high structural building costs.

Here at Home Republic we specialise in transforming unused garages and cellars into beautiful rooms across London, Surrey and Kent.

Unique Opportunity

Basements

Not many people realise that you don’t necessarily need an existing cellar or basement to convert beneath the ground.  With the right planning permission in place, you can actually dig out a space beneath your home to house extra bedrooms / playrooms or whatever your heart desires!

Many families in London are now weighing up the benefit and the cost of moving home for a larger space with actually converting and generating extra space from what they already have. Basement conversions are good ways of creating extra bedrooms, whether that is for the kids, for a nanny or even as a granny annexe.
Believe it or not, a house with a basement will be better insulated than those without as they control temperature and retain heat more effectively!
If you are looking to generate an income out of your property, then a basement conversion could also be used to house tenants and be made into self-contained dwelling. Again, planning permission would be required here.

Waterproofing and tanking methods are so advanced now, that basement conversions are no longer deemed as rooms that will eventually leak or have damp problems. In fact, with the right design, sometimes they can be the most visually stunning rooms in a house!
