Survey, programme and compliance for garage conversion in Greenwich

Does a garage conversion in Greenwich need Building Control?
Usually, yes. Converting a garage, or part of one, into habitable space normally needs Building Regulations approval, which is separate from planning permission.

Could garage conversion in Greenwich involve the Party Wall Act?
Some garage conversion briefs in Greenwich may raise neighbour interfaces under the Party Wall etc. Act 1996 — for example works to a shared wall, excavations near a boundary, or new structures astride a boundary. Not every garage conversion job is a party-wall matter.
For a Greenwich garage conversion scope, neighbour and boundary questions are flagged only when the address evidence makes them relevant. Formal notices, awards and surveyor appointments remain with the building owner and appointed surveyors; this page does not decide them.
If you already hold a party-wall notice, award or neighbour correspondence, attach it with photographs so professional input can be sequenced before irreversible build steps. An appointed surveyor can advise on the notice or agreement needed for the proposed work.
