Garage Conversion Specialists

A garage conversion is a great way to increase the size of your home without building an extension or losing valuable outdoor space. They’re a popular option for growing families who want to save the hassle and expense of moving to a larger property and can be tailored to suit the needs of your household.

Our expert team will bring your vision to life, whether you dream of a modern and functional home office, garage-to-granny-flat conversion, want to create an additional living area, or convert your carport into an enclosed garage. A garage conversion also has the potential to add value to your home if you decide to sell in the future.

Whether you need help to execute your vision or would like to discuss some garage conversion ideas, we’re here to help. At Refresh, we’ll provide advice on the best options for you and your property and will work hard on your behalf throughout your entire project.

How does Refresh help?

Garage conversions can be tricky, but we’re here to provide you with all the guidance and support you need to make the right decisions. You’ll partner with a Renovation Consultant who will guide you through the process from start to finish and take care of the nitty-gritty details including sourcing materials, scheduling contractors, and coordinating council consent.

Our proven 5-step method ensures that all projects are completed on time and within budget. Careful planning is carried out before any construction work begins, and your Renovation Consultant’s established network of contractors and suppliers will aim to have secured everything needed for your project. This avoids any unexpected delays or expenses later on and means you’ll receive a high-quality garage conversion and a smooth experience from start to finish.

“Refresh is handling ALL aspects of my renovation, including permits, approvals, inspections, design, and fit-out on my behalf. As a single mum with a busy career, I truly appreciate having the workload and requirements handled by the experienced Refresh team” — Liz Carrol, Refresh client

We engaged the services of Sharon Giblett of Refresh Renovations Tauranga for our bathroom, ensuite and toilet renovation. From start to finish the project ran smoothly. Given Omicron landed bang in the middle of our project Sharon’s professionalism, attention to detail, and problem solving ability saw the project completed on time albeit in difficult circumstances which was an exceptional result. We cannot speak highly enough of Sharon and her contractors. The quality of the finished product has exceeded our expectations and helped realise the vision we had for those spaces. Julie and I would not hesitate to recommend others seek Sharon out if you're considering a similar project.

We’re here to help at every step along the way, from inspiration and advice to cost-effective solutions and day-saving ideas.

A smoother garage conversion process

We aim to deliver a seamless garage conversion experience for homeowners by utilising our proven 5-step process.

Step 1

Initial Consultation

To get started, your Renovation Consultant will conduct an initial consultation to get a clear understanding of your goals, budget, and timeline for your garage conversion. No detail is too small. Your input will shape the final result and make it easier for your Renovation Consultant to suggest clever solutions you may not have considered.

Step 2

Scoping and Feasibility

With your expectations laid out, your Renovation Consultant will then arrange for concept designs to be drawn up. These drawings will illustrate what you discussed during your initial consultation and offer an opportunity to make important design decisions without having to use your imagination; it’s right there for you to see. The concept drawings will also be used to determine your project’s feasibility.

Step 3

Detailed Planning and Costing

Moving on, concept drawings are transformed into working drawings. These are based on the technical aspects of your design such as architecture, existing conditions, and structural engineering, and determine how your plans will actually be constructed. As the last step of the planning process, now is the ideal time to make any final changes to the design to avoid incurring additional costs and delays once the construction has begun. A fixed quote will be provided for your approval so you know the garage conversion cost before breaking ground.

Step 4

Build Stage

Now that the plans are finalised, it’s time to watch your garage conversion take shape. We know that having strangers on your property can feel awkward, but the team assembled by your Renovation Consultant is comprised of trusted and experienced professionals who will treat you and your home with respect. Plus, your Renovation Consultant will be there to overcome any obstacles swiftly to ensure your project stays on track.

Step 5

Project Completion

Before Refresh finalises the project, your Renovation Consultant will provide you with a CCC (Code Compliance Certificate) which states that your garage conversion has been completed up to code, with the necessary documentation to prove it. Now, your garage conversion is complete!
