Garage Conversion Co.

About Garage Conversion Co.

We design and build compliant garage conversions in Canterbury and Christchurch. We handle consent, do all building ourselves, and manage the job from start to finish.

Compliance-first, not shortcuts. We assess suitability, consent, and building code so the space is habitable and rental-ready. Where conversion isn't the right move, we'll tell you.

What we do

We assess whether your garage is suitable for conversion, handle all consent and building code, and design and build for insulation and fire safety where required. We manage the job from feasibility to completion. You don't need to engage separate builders or run the project yourself.

We don't guarantee that every garage can or should be converted. We tell you when it may not be the right option.

Our approach

We lead with compliance. We assess your garage honestly and advise on what usually applies so you can decide. Where conversion isn't the right move, we'll tell you.

We build habitable, rental-ready spaces that meet building code, not cosmetic upgrades or shortcuts. Every property is different; we assess on-site.

Who we work with

We usually work with homeowners and investors in Canterbury and Christchurch who want a second income, a home office, a guest bedroom, or short-term accommodation, and who prefer to know what's involved before committing.

If you want the cheapest or fastest option, or want to avoid consent, we're probably not the right fit.

Our process

We start with a feasibility assessment so you know early what's involved. If it makes sense, we handle consent, design, and building and manage the job from start to finish.

We do all compliance, all building ourselves, and manage the job. You don't need to engage separate builders or manage the project.

See our our process page for more detail.
