The Cheapest Extra Room You Will Ever Add
Our Franschhoek renovation team converts garages in Franschhoek into home offices, bedrooms, studios, gyms, and self-contained flatlets. Because the slab, walls, and roof already exist, a garage conversion delivers a new habitable room at a fraction of the cost of an extension — but only if the conversion deals with what garages were never built for: living comfort.
Done Properly, Not Just Boarded Up
A garage slab is typically lower than the house floor and was never damp-proofed for living space, so we screed and seal it first. The garage door opening is built up and fitted with proper windows or doors, walls and the roof are insulated, and electrical circuits are added for heating, work equipment, or appliances — with a compliance certificate. If the room will be a bedroom or flatlet, we advise on plan requirements before work starts. Quotes follow a free on-site visit.
