Garage conversions in Hertfordshire and North London

Turn your garage into a useable space

A garage conversion by Artifex Homes becomes a children's playroom

If you don’t use your garage for a car, converting it can be a great way to add space to your home.

Whatever you need the extra room for, it can be much more affordable than an extension. We’ve completed garage conversions that create everything from a playroom to a gym, extra bedrooms, living and working spaces. We even turned one garage into a dog grooming parlour…

With a wealth of experience, we can advise you on the best way to make sure your new space looks and feels like it’s always been part of your home. We can work with your existing architect, or we can recommend one from our network of trusted local experts.
