Project Overview

What started as an underused, cold garage is now a bright, modern living space — full of character and comfort. This garage conversion in Jarrow is a great example of how we help homeowners unlock the full potential of their property without needing to extend the footprint.

Whether it’s for working from home, creating a chill-out zone, or simply making better use of space — this transformation is proof of what thoughtful building and quality finishes can achieve.

What We Did

  • Full garage strip-out and preparation
  • Built a new pitched tiled roof to replace the old flat roof
  • Installed two Velux-style skylights to maximise natural light
  • Fully insulated walls, ceiling, and floors to meet building regulations
  • Internal plastering, joinery, flooring, and decoration
  • New electrical installation including sockets, lighting, and heating
  • Seamless integration with the rest of the home

The Power of Natural Light

One of the standout features in this project is the addition of two roof skylights, which instantly transformed the feel of the room. Not only do they make the space feel larger and more open, but they also enhance the energy efficiency by reducing the need for artificial lighting during the day. The new pitched tiled roof adds a fresh, modern finish to the exterior of the property, and gives the interior valuable ceiling height — making the room feel more spacious and airy.

A Full Turnkey Service

At Grays Signature Builds, we don’t just handle the build — we manage the entire process. From structural changes to the smallest details like sockets and skirting, everything is planned and delivered with precision.

  • A clear timeline from day one
  • Regular updates and clear communication with the client
  • Coordinating all trades — including joinery, electrics, plastering, and decorating
  • Clean handover with a fully finished, ready-to-use space

Why a Garage Conversion?

Many homeowners have garages that are rarely used for cars and instead become storage areas for items that could be kept elsewhere. A garage conversion allows you to:

  • Add usable space without building a full extension
  • Increase the value of your property
  • Create a versatile room that suits your lifestyle — whether it’s a home office, extra lounge, guest room, or hobby space
  • Improve energy efficiency with upgraded insulation and heating

In this case, the homeowners wanted a practical space that didn’t just look good — but felt like part of the home. With a full conversion and pitched roof redesign, we achieved just that.
