I've seen a few posts on whether planning is needed for converting a garage into a living space so thought I'ld stick some up to date info for reference.
Our house is semiD with a garage attached to it. Was looking to convert to living space, raplce the flat roof with pitched and the garage door with a window.
According to Fingal CoCo this would be fine without planning except for the changing the roof bit. Going from the flat roof to pitched means the job is not exempt.
good job I checked as the builder I had in quoting said "Dont be daft. I'm doing these allt he time and you DONT need planning permission for it!"
