Q: What is the least expensive way to convert a garage to a living space?

• <div><p>The least expensive way to convert a garage to a living space is to perform as much of the work yourself as possible, using materials you can acquire at discount prices, and avoiding making structural changes to the building. While you can&rsquo;t control what type of garage already exists on your property, converting a detached garage to living space will cost 20% to 30% more, so going with an attached garage conversion will save quite a bit.</p></div>

Q: What features should be included in a new garage design?

• <div><p>Adequate storage, workspaces, and energy-efficient systems are key considerations.</p></div>

Q: How long does it take to convert a garage into an ADU?

• <div><p>You can expect a garage conversion project to take an average of between two and four months. Your timeline can vary, though, and it could take six months or longer if you need to run utilities to a detached garage, make structural changes to the building, or carry out foundation and structural repairs before the conversion begins.</p></div>

Q: How many square feet is an average two-car garage?

• <div><p>An <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/2-car-garage-size.htm">average two-car garage size</a> is about 580 square feet. A common dimension for a two-car garage is 24-feet deep by 24-feet wide, as measured by the interior width. However, the manufacturing of larger vehicle sizes means many homeowners want to build bigger garages. It&rsquo;s not uncommon for a two-car garage to be 30-feet by 30-feet.</p></div>

Q: Do you need planning permission to change a garage door to a normal door?

• <div><p>In most cases, you do not need planning permission to change a garage door to a normal door, unless a specific restriction is present on your home&rsquo;s deed. If you&rsquo;re changing the door because you are trying to convert the garage into a living space, you will need to work with building control for proper signoffs to ensure your conversion meets all of the necessary construction standards. </p></div>
